Success Story: Approval in Principle on Humanitarian and Compassionate Grounds

We are pleased to share a positive result in a recent application for permanent residence based on humanitarian and compassionate (H&C) considerations.

Our client was a parent and grandparent living in Canada who faced difficult personal circumstances. She was widowed, had a medical condition, and had developed strong family ties in Canada, including an important relationship with her children and grandchildren who live here.

The application focused on her unique humanitarian circumstances, her family connections in Canada, and the hardship she could face if required to leave the country.

We were very pleased to receive Approval in Principle on her application — an important positive step in the H&C permanent residence process.

For our client and her family, this decision represents much more than progress on an immigration application. It provides hope that she may be able to remain close to the family and grandchildren who form such an important part of her life.

Every humanitarian and compassionate application is assessed on its own particular facts and circumstances, and positive outcomes are never guaranteed. We are grateful to have helped this family reach this important milestone in their journey toward permanent residence in Canada.
