Our Recent Immigration Success Stories

Successfully Overcoming Medical Inadmissibility Due To Kidney Condition

We recently assisted a hard working family, living in Canada, on their permanent residence application. They came to us because IRCC was concerned that our client’s existing kidney condition complicated by an autoimmune disease would cause an excessive demand in Canada in the coming five years. We worked hard over a number of months to put together a plan of care for our client, whose condition gradually changed, requiring dialysis. We consulted with the client’s specialist doctors and coordinators as well as the provincial authorities to put a comprehensive plan of care in place, and balanced with the family’s contributions in Canada. We are very pleased to share that the plan was carefully considered by IRCC and our client was found medically admissible. We wish our clients the best of luck as they continue their life here in Canada!

Spousal Sponsorship Success!

Our office was retained to assist with filing an Application for Permanent Residence supported by an Application to Sponsor Under the In Canada Spouse or Common-Law Partner Class (or “Spousal Sponsorship Application”). The couple was concerned as the Applicant had been residing in Canada for many years without valid status.

After diligently preparing the application package, the application was approved, and our client was finally able to confirm their status as a permanent resident of Canada. We are very pleased with the timely approval and wish our clients all the best as they continue to build their life in Canada!

Work Permit and Restoration of Status Granted After Prior Refusal

We were approached by a client after their work permit and restoration application under a previous public policy for post-graduate work permit (PGWP) holders had been refused. Thankfully, a new public policy for PGWP-holders had been released, under which we determined that our client was eligible. We assisted in diligently preparing our client’s application, including ensuring all mandatory documents were provided, forms were filled out accurately and taking care to ensure their immigration history was fully disclosed, in addition to conducting legal research and preparing legal submissions to accompany the application. After a few months, we were delighted to share the news with our client that their application had been approved – their status had been restored and they were granted authorization to work in Canada once again. We are very pleased with the result considering the effort and hard work both our client and our office put into the application, and wish our client all the best!

A Positive LMIA Decision in Record Time

Our firm successfully obtained a positive Labour Market Impact Assessment (LMIA) for our client who urgently required a housekeeper for her elderly parents’ residence. Our experienced business immigration lawyer conducted an initial assessment with the employer and identified the challenges that our client, the employer, faced in maintaining the cleanliness of the household. We advised and assisted the employer throughout the complex LMIA process, including the required recruitment efforts and preparing a comprehensive application package.

We filed the LMIA application with Service Canada in September 2023. However, due to technical glitches on the LMIA portal, they were unable to verify the payment of the processing fees and erroneously cancelled the application. Our legal team swiftly contacted Service Canada and clarified the situation. Despite this setback, the application was reopened into processing. Our client received a favourable LMIA decision without an interview in October 2023, within two weeks of the application being reopened. We are delighted with the expedited outcome and are pleased to have helped our client achieve her objective in a timely manner.
