I would focus on submitting your spousal sponsorship application asap and then once that is done submit the reconsideration request with evidence you have formally submitted the PR application.
While you may be married to a Canadian, this does not allow you to continue to extend your status in...
It's hard to say in your case and not guaranteed that IRCC will say that your wife falls under the category of accompanying a Canadian citizen abroad. According to the who followed whom rule, it's possible they may say she was the one who was living and working outside of Canada and you followed...
Others have said it and I'll say the same. You need to hire an immigration lawyer. You are no longer in do-it-yourself territory. You need legal representation. Ideally you should have done that before applying for citizenship.
The refusal was the expected outcome based on your age and level of establishment in Canada.
As others have said, you needed to apply at a much younger age (18-21) to have some chance of success. To use the argument that you were removed as a child, you have to show an attempt to move back to...
I know this isn't what you want to hear, but honestly speaking, this is not a compelling case for a TRP. You can certainly try. However I think your chances of approval are going to be very close to zero. You are looking to secure a work permit and work for at least two years in Canada. This...
FYI - if you are looking for advice from a licensed immigration professional, that's something you will need to pay for. There are none here providing free advice.
That does happen. But to the best of my knowledge that has been for extreme cases of spousal abuse or best interest of child, usually related to a very serious illness. I have not seen any cases expedited related to parents.
Unfortunately you still have a wait time of over ten years at this point. There is no expedite process. However your mother can remain in Canada until there is a decision in the application.
You need CLB7 French if you want to get PR on your own. Otherwise you will need to rely on your boyfried and have him sponsor you once you are either common law or married.
Here's the long and the short of it. Ultimately you have to decide if you're willing to take the risk. If you submit the application to sponsor your spouse, there is a chance IRCC will open a case against you for failing to meet RO. None of us can tell you how big or small a chance. So it all...
So this is several years ago now, but my husband got RQ for missing a single same day trip in his application. When he got RQ, they didn't ask for any evidence of his time outside of Canada. What they wanted was evidence to prove he was in Canada on the days he was claiming he was in Canada.
Was your application actually returned? It sounds like it wasn't returned. You were instead asked to submit additional documents. Is that right? If so, the residency dates are locked in on the date you submitted your original application.
You need to strengthen his evidence of ties to his home country. Also consider shortening his trip. Placing focus on your relationship and anniversary will just make the officer more concerned he has plans on remaining long term.
- Same immigration programs as for everyone else.
- He can apply for Express Entry if he meets the minimum requirements. Note that meeting the minimum requirements doesn't mean he will be selected. People are selected based on points.
- Having Germany permanent residency gives him no advantages...
