Here is a little about me, I came to canada as an international student in 2013,  I entered into the pool for express entry However, the numbers at the time were too high and I wasn't selected. I applied for H&C as I had exhausted all my other options. I do not have children and all my family live here in canada. 
My argument was based on establishment and potential hardship. I do not have any previous failed cases and I was told by many that I wasn't a good candidate for H&C. It was worth the try and I am happy I did it. Good luck to everyone here, do your research, be patient and be apart of the process. This group has kept me going, I enjoyed reading all of your stories, the successes and learned from those that weren't successful.
