Our Recent Immigration Success Stories

At Bellissimo Immigration Law Group PC, we are privileged to work on behalf of many wonderful people, companies and associations. We represent immigration applicants from far outside Canada, from the time they step foot into the country’s airport waiting rooms all the way to the Supreme Court of Canada.

Our immigration clients often tell us after their case is concluded that it would have helped to know of similar stories that are real and not just what you hear on the street. So every month, we post a few stories to celebrate our immigration success stories and offer some comfort to those who will soon embark on a similar journey…

PR Status Granted After Medical Inadmissibility Finding

We were recently successful on an application for permanent residence, which involved a young child who had a rare and serious medical condition. Had the medical admissibility assessment not been specifically individualized to the particulars of his condition, i.e.: stage in treatment and prognosis, etc., the entire family would have been found to cause an excessive demand in Canada, and would have been refused permanent residence. Following extensive research and consultation with specialists, a Mitigation Plan and submissions detailing the appropriate condition, together with corroborating research, was presented, reviewed by Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada, and approved. This family is now pleased to call themselves permanent residents of Canada.

Provincial Nominee Certificates Reinstated to Several Clients in Saskatchewan

We were recently retained by several clients in Saskatchewan who had their Provincial Nominee certificates revoked well after they had been issued and the clients Permanent Resident Applications were in process. The case presented many challenges, including jurisdictional issues, as we had opened cases against the Minister of Citizenship and Immigration as well as the Saskatchewan Immigrant Nominee Program with the assistance of a lawyer in Saskatchewan. In the end, the clients Provincial Nominee certificates were reinstated and we were able to have the clients Permanent Residence Applications reopened.

Extensive Submissions Grant Study Permit After Previous Refusal

Our firm was approached by a young woman who’s most recent study permit extension application had been refused.  She had commenced her studies in Canada prior to the new changes to study permits in June 2014 and held a study permit for a school which was not on the Designated Learning Institute list.  She had only one semester of school remaining, and was devastated that she would be unable to complete her studies and qualify for a post-graduate work permit. Our firm made extension submissions on behalf of our client and was able to restore her status in Canada. Her accompanying co-op work permit was also approved along with her study permit. She will now be able to complete her program and have the opportunity to apply for a post-graduate work permit!
