    H&C Humanitarian Ground with/or Without Failed refugee claim

    Not sure I'd put a lot of faith in a group of lawyers who make their living off the problem. While I don't doubt there would be legal challenges to any action the government may take, the SCC has repeatedly refused to admonish changes to the law made by government. The court does not make laws...

    Outland Common Law Partner Sponsorship

    We applied prior to her being sponsored. We made sure she letters of approved leave from her university and employer for the TRV and that there were adequate funds in her account well in advance of the application. I also included my stay permits and my employment letter showing I was going back...

    Outland Common Law Partner Sponsorship

    Common law Outland. We had arranged a TRV for her prior to applying. We applied about a month after arriving in Canada and applied for an extension when it got close to 6 months. Got her COPR about 6 days before her 6 month limit.

    Outland Common Law Partner Sponsorship

    Been there and have sponsored under this exact scenario. Applied common law for my Indonesian spouse we did have about 13 months when we applied, but circumstances were even more complicated. Lived together 3 months in Indonesia, I moved for work to Thailand where she could only visit for 30...

    H&C Humanitarian Ground with/or Without Failed refugee claim

    I don't disagree. Those already in process should have applications vetted for security, criminality and medical and a decision made based on that. Others have argued that it doesn't provide the correct skill sets needed, but the option is there to train and educate these people to gain those...

    It would become effect on final reading in the House of Commons. Who knows when that will happen.

    H&C Humanitarian Ground with/or Without Failed refugee claim

    So, 50,000 people waiting for H&C aren't inmigrant. They are ineligible applicant/ failed refugee claimant/ visitors hoping for an exemption from an immigration system has already determined ineligible. The options for any government (and believe me, a conservative government would be looking at...

    H&C Humanitarian Ground with/or Without Failed refugee claim

    I doubt we will see much movement on C-12 until after the fall budget release. I imagine the liberals are pulling up the stakes (and negotiating tactics) to ensure there isn't a no. Confidence vote on the budget. Might mean some fancy negotiating (and revising C-12 might be a carrot) to prop up...

    Can a protected person apply for PR through PNP or Express Entry

    Why would someone who's approved as a protected person want to apply through a different immigration stream for a PR when they already qualify for a PR? Seems like a lot of extra barking and catching frisbees for zero advantage.

    H&C Humanitarian Ground with/or Without Failed refugee claim

    While I have no doubt that the government is planning mass cancellation of some programs (and no, lawsuits won't change the outcome), none of that answers the question of "what about the people.Already here"? This is a huge issue as these people have already show a "devotion" to remaining in...

    H&C Humanitarian Ground with/or Without Failed refugee claim

    This Processing Time from IRCC....."We need more time to process your application"...for H&C applications prior to July 2022 leads me to believe that the whole process has come to a complete (or very near complete) grinding halt while the government reassesses the program. What an absolute...
