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…
Recently, our firm assisted with an individual’s study permit application. The matter was quite challenging considering that the applicant had applied on his own twice in the past, and was refused in both instances. However, with our submissions, we are very pleased with the end result, in which the applicant has successfully obtained his study permit.
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!
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!
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!
