Our Recent Immigration Success Stories

Status in Canada Granted on Humanitarian and Compassionate Grounds

Our client successfully landed this week after a number of attempts to secure status in Canada. Following a failed refugee claim and refusal of his application based on humanitarian and compassionate grounds (H&C), he retained our office to complete a second H&C application. This application highlighted his strong establishment in Canada, his commendable contribution to Canadian society, and the significant hardship he would face upon return to his country of origin, which has suffered decades of civil strife. We are very pleased that our client can now officially call Canada home!

Strong Submissions Grant PR Status Under H&C Grounds

Our firm assisted a client who had been out of status for a considerably long period of time in Canada. We submitted an application under the Humanitarian and Compassionate Grounds (H&C) category. We prepared strong submissions highlighting our client’s establishment in Canada, her involvement in the community and the disproportionate hardship she would face if she returned to her birth country, given her extended absence and lack of ties. We recently received correspondence that the application has been approved!

Permanent Residence Granted Under the Express Entry Category FSW

Our office was approached by a young professional to manage her permanent residence application under the Express Entry system. Our client had extensive foreign work experience that she wished to rely on, however, only held various deficient employment documents to prove this work. She was unable to obtain an employment letter with the required information listed.  The client had received an Invitation to Apply (ITA) under the Express Entry (EE) category – Federal Skilled Worker (FSW) and had 60 days to comply with the document requirements.

With the documents that were in the client’s possession, we were able to make submissions to show that taken together, the documents as a whole met the immigration requirements. Our submissions and her documents were accepted by CIC and her application for permanent residence was recently approved!

Sponsorship Appeal Approved for Deserving Couple

After the visa office refused his application to sponsor his wife to Canada, we were retained to help with our client’s appeal. We filed volumes of evidence to the Immigration Appeal Division supporting the genuine nature of this relationship, and prepared our client and his wife to provide oral testimony at the hearing. Despite the Minister’s extensive cross-examination, we demonstrated through strong testimony and legal submissions that this was a genuine marriage, exposing key errors in the visa officer’s decision. The appeal was allowed, and our client is thrilled that his wife will soon be joining him in Canada!
