Decision Made

[Gotchaa]

Received a letter of refusal today!

[tamee]

OH GOTCCHA IM SO SORRY:((((

[rgvinson777]

I feel for you!

[martha marita]

Gotcha what a sad ending!  I hope you will recover from this and make a wise decision on what to do.  I would advise to revisit the questions asked by the immigration officer during your interview, reflect on them and try to see what might have crossed some doubts in your relationship, evidence etc.  Its not only the marriage certificate they will look at i pressume many things behind bars.  do you have a child together or any thing that might have triggered a strong bond.  Wish you luck with whatever step you wish to take.

Gotchaa,
I'm absolutely shocked!!! Is there a reason why? Can you think of one? Was it to do with family ties still to your country? I can't think of a reason why they would refuse you? What an awful surprise. You must go ahead with an appeal.
It makes me worry that we still might be refused in the end.

Sorry to hear that, but refusal reason mostly in marriage case are when people are not able prove enough  that  marriage or relationship is true , if its true then you dont need to worry even though they refuse you last year they refused my friend he got marry too but later in appeal they prove their case is true and 3 months ago he got visa and now they are together so dont lose hope go for appeal as soon as possible and i am sure they must give you reason that why they refuse you or where you case lack so focus on that point and provide them more information related their question i believe you will get visa if relationship is true , good luck

Can anyone tell me if there are any forums where people are discussing appeal cases?

[kingmaker]

What was the reason of your refusal???

[maroraza]

yes i agree most of appeals are accepted

[Gotchaa]

they have not given me clear cut reasons for refusal just said that i entered into marriage for the sake of PR. Can I write them to provide me specific reasons leading them to refuse my case? Someone told me that I can request for review before appeal by providing extra evidence. But my wife has already lodged an appeal. Now we are going to hire a lawyer in few days.

Gochaa good step for an appeal and now that you will be thinkin of hiring a lawyer, you will be in good hands and advice.  So many things are always considered when it comes to marriage issues as some marrigates they think are bogus.  You will need to prove harder and harder to the cic. 
The reason specified by cic that you got marriage because of PR is very specific and straight forward.  You will need to think and work on things you yourself think were reasons for them not to trust your marriage. 

To my perspective they might have thougth?
have your lived together?
How long you have lived apart?
evidence to show that you are supporting her in canada?
Communications before you got marriage or thought of marriage?
kids together? dna etc.

Dont mis understand me but is just my perspection.

Hope things get on well.

Gotchaa, I answered your other email you wrote me, and I see here you won your appeal. CONGRATULATIONS.
Have you been asked for renewed or current medical and police checks or your passport? That "should" be the point where the final stages are happening.
