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…

Successful Humanitarian & Compassionate Application

Our client became a permanent resident of Canada on humanitarian and compassionate grounds. The applicant – a very young, bright man – initially came to Canada as a student. After three years of studies, he became destitute and could not afford tuition fees any longer. For various reasons, returning to his country of birth was going to cause extreme hardship. His application for permanent residence was approved and he just landed a few days ago.

Invitation to Apply for Permanent Residence Received on Returned Canadian Experience Class Application

Our client’s Canadian Experience Class (“CEC”) permanent residence application was returned earlier this year, after the CEC cap was met for the 2014 year.  We assisted the client to submit their profile under the new Express Entry (“EE”) system and they were accepted into the EE pool of eligible candidates.

Our client recently received an Invitation to Apply for permanent residence under the EE system!  We are now in the process of finalizing his permanent residence application and again anticipate a positive outcome.

Spousal Sponsorship Appeal at the Immigration Appeal Division

Last week we represented our client at the Immigration Appeal Division where he appealed the refusal of his spousal sponsorship application. The Immigration Officer at the visa office overseas had concluded that our client’s marriage was not legally valid and not genuine. In preparation for the hearing, we helped our client gather strong evidence to refute these findings, and we also worked with both our client in Canada and his wife overseas to prepare for oral testimony at the hearing. After considering all of the evidence on appeal, the Hearings Officer consented that the appeal should be allowed, and the deciding Member agreed. This is a fantastic resolution for our client, who can now be reunited with his wife in Canada.

Permanent Residency Granted to Medically Inadmissible Parents

We were recently successful in assisting our client in receiving permanent residence for their parents, following an initial medical inadmissibility finding for a medical condition of Hepatitis B. The individual was determined to require medical treatment that was expected to result in an excessive demand.  We assisted in sourcing out the appropriate medical specialists and prognostic findings, and in accurately determining what medical care would be required in their intended province. Following extensive research and a comprehensive mitigation Plan, presented together with our specialized legal submissions, the medical admissibility finding was overturned without having to resort to litigation.
