Hello there, I have a similar (but not exactly the same story). In our case, the CIC website said one thing, but the actual law says another; thus, when I was gathering all the proof I can to prove our relationship, I actually proved myself wrong according to the law. I went to immigration...

yeah I found it out now =)), but the CIC website states, quote: "your sponsor immigrated to Canada and, at the time they applied for permanent residence, you were a family member who should have been examined to see if you met immigration requirements, but you were not examined" and nothing...

Yep, I am pretty sure, I went to CIC today, and the guy there told me that: first, he had never seen anything like that happen before, and second, since I showed that I intend to stay in Canada, I might have problems applying for any temporary resident visas (including post grad work permit). It...

Hello msabarish, That's the bad part, I (myself) sent them the proof that we were living together when he landed, as I tried to collect as many papers as possible =)), I wanted it to be better, but it actually turned out worse =(( I decided to apply through Humanitarian and Compassionate...

Thanks for reply, me and my boyfriend moved together pretty much for ecomonical reasons (cheaper to split rent, as we were getting along quite well, so what the heck we moved in together, then he applied for PR, got it .... we were not thinking about my PR or anything like that at all, plus I...

Well, I think I will try to contact the local MP first and see if they can do anything about it , may be there is someone out there who can overrule the decision. Who knows, might help. Mean while i will gather all the papers for the outland application, thought I will be refused for sure, and...

Oh well, I was refused ...

Hello guys, today when I returned home from the university, I got a letter from the CIC saying that my partner's sponsorship was refused, due to the fact that when he landed more than 2 years ago he did not declare any dependents (meaning me). At the time he submitted his application (3 years...

This is such a nice and relaxing post

Wow, it can be cheap! =)) Thanks for estimates!

Well, i have been following your story for quite a while now, and I would complain! If you write your complaint in a diplomatic manner, it should not hurt you case (in my mind), plus you will have more to say during your appeal (which will be absolutely beneficial). So, I would complain...

Wow that is depressing .....

Hey, well I just submitted my thesis =), but nothing on the immigration front unfortunately. Did you get any news? Cheers, Racconn
