[Newbie01]

I finally got my Full hearing date for June!!!!
Appealed September 2012 and just received my date...took 1 1/2 years to get a date.
Does anyone know the process after the hearing date?

Stats??
I am reading that there are approximately 50,000 spousal sponsorship cases a year with 10,000 being deemed fraudulent.
Of these, there are about 3,000 appeals, with only a third of these being successful. This came out of the Toronto Star.
Does any one know, are these stats close? Can they be verified?
Thanks

I saw that Tor Star piece (sorry don't have the link but I think it's posted somewhere in this forum, or just Google it) and I believe the refusal rate was actually in the area of 8%, so not quite as bad as the 20% you cite. Appeal success rate sounds about right.

Welcome to the forum canadianshamrock.Sorry to read of your denial. :'( You will have 30 days from the date of the refusal letter to give notice of appeal. You must submit your refusal letter with the appeal form. You should receive both together with instructions. Here is a wealth of information and support from around the world in the same boat.You should order your Caips notes now. There is another term used for these now also I can't remember exactly GCMS or something like that?This will tell you the visa officer's issues and concerns. This is what you need to address for a resolve through an appeal along with supporting evidence of your relationship/marriage.

the other one is ATIP notes, Double Rainbow
heres the link to order it online

you need to pay only $5 for the notes - takes about 3-4 weeks the notes to come & you can order electric notes (email) also

can anybody tell me how long it'll take to get a full hearing date in Vancouver?
and after we get the blue book, what we have to do as the next step?
do we have to send them the proofs after that? then within how long? we were refused for the financial ability as my husband was with me for about 71/2 months in my country without earning. so, now he is again in vancouver and doing jobs and earning well.
so i need to know something more than that about it. plzzz share your idea about the time and the procedure
thnx

That is good to hear. I appealed in Dec. 2012

We applied for my wife to come here in Feb 2011. After 20 months, in Nov. 2012, she had her interview and she was denied. I appealed in Dec. 2012. We moved up plans for having a baby and our daughter was born Aug 2013 in Cambodia (where my wife is).

Still waiting.

The worst thing is a couple days ago, my wife told me that our baby girl is really taking an interest in her uncle (my wife's brother). That was devastatingly heart-breaking. She is probably looking for a 'dad' and might assume it is him. :'(

hi i my PR application was refused for misrepresentation as i when filling the form by mistake i didnt mention about my tourist visa for uk was rejected few years back. we applied for sponsorship in 2011 and was refused in 2013 with a ban that i cannot apply for another 2 years. We have filed an appeal i want to know is it worth to hire an lawyer and fight the appeal or wait for 2 years and apply again. since my husband is a canadian citizen he wants to come to srilanka and live with me for 2 years until i get my visa. Please advice

I hear you!! The same is with our daughter........ she tries to find a father figure in my brother-in-law, father and my friends. This whole process is devastating!

Appeal process.

My wife and I were married in March 2013, and she returned to China early May 2013, and we have been separated since.

My wife went for her PR interview in Beijing Feb. 17th and unfortunately was turned down because the Visa Officer (VO) was not satisfied that our marriage is genuine. The letter sent to her stating this decsion and the reasons for it was prepared on Feb. 20th, but was not post dated until Feb 26th., and not received until Feb. 28th by my wife.

It is now March 13th, and I have yet to receive my copy here in Prince Edward Island.
I do not wish to wait longer, far too much is riding on this. If it is not here tomorrow morning, I want to file the appeal anyways. Does anyone know any reason why I cannot download the appeal form and file it using the reasons stated in the wife's letter? Is there any need to wait for my letter? The instructions included with my version are not really needed, are they?
Also, I assume our hearing will be in Montreal, but no where on this forum have I been able to see the estimated waiting time in Montreal?

I served many years in the military,have traveled much, and have always been proud of Canada, even though I was aware of her many faults, but this is incredible. When the VO phoned me at 2 AM during the interview, she was rude, condescending, and left the distinct impression that she was hunting for specific answers, not asking questions. She repeatedly cut me off as soon as I tried to answer her with an answer she did not want. Her deportment with my wife was far worse.....

If any one can answer, offer advice, I will much appreciate, as these indeed are dark times. We need to fight this process, and will not do well standing alone.
Thank you

Welcome to the club. Believe me, I completely understand what you're going through. The treatment my husband received at the interview was deplorable. I was there, in India, but was not even allowed into the room. The guy continually cut him off, made rude remarks, and was not even listening. He already had made his mind up. It's now been 23 months since we applied, but we did win our ADR and are in the final stages, finally!

Anyhow, I'm not too sure on the wait times for Montreal unfortunately. I would suggest that you hire a good immigration lawyer at this point, or at least have some counsel, if you haven't done so already. You can file your notice of appeal using your wife's letter (we used my husbands because I was in India at the time). The form and instructions can be downloaded here: http://www.irb-cisr.gc.ca/Eng/res/form/Pages/IadSai428Intro.aspx
The IAD will then send an acknowledgement letter, that will be followed within 4 months by a package which is what CIC sends of what they think is 'important' to your file (they notoriously leave out important information). You should also send in additional documents to support your case to Montreal. After several more months, you'll then receive a letter stating whether you've been selected for an ADR. ANother few weeks pass, and they'll send another letter notifying you the date of your ADR (if you've been granted one).
I would also strongly suggest that after filing your notice of appeal, applying for GCMS notes as this will give a lot of insight in the what you're up against for your appeal. Don't be alarmed when it seems like your wife was not even in the same interview as the officer... Best of luck! Be patient...

That's why it is very prudent your application is strong enough to avoid an interview.
