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

    It was extremely easy to enter Canada for multiple years. IRCC was doing bulk approvals of TRVs without even vetting them. Was easy to secure WPs, easy to get extensions of temporary status, etc. Nobody who works in immigration, especially during the Sean Fraser days, will disagree with me...

    Inland Spouse Sponsorship Under Policy

    When did she stop studying? If only recently that is fine but if not compliant with the terms of her study permit for a long time she may have lost her status a while ago.

    Requested a virtual landing after getting the PPR email

    Your spouse may want to return home because there is an up to 3 month wait period once she gets PR to get access to provincial healthcare. When she returns she should purchase private insurance and look at the fine print about what is covered.

    Visitor Visa from Dubai

    Processing times based on previous processing times but also often wrong if manyo review is involved. Would suggest comparing to others applying via the UAE (citizenship also may impact processing time since many are not UAE citizens) to get a better idea of actual processing times.

    Tourist Visa for sibling (Minor)

    Work Permit Expiry & PR Application in Pool – Options for Extension

    Can his wife contribute any points? He should try to upgrade his skills to qualify for a healthcare draw. This may require returning home to upgrade skills and get more work experience before reapplying. His wife returning home and not accompanying him would also increase his score. Think his...

    Express Entry For Asylum Claimants

    You no longer qualify for economic PR pathways as an asylum claimants. Claiming asylum was a big mistake unless you have strong grounds.

    2025 H&C Applications: Post your updates and questions

    Volume of applicants, ability for department to process applications and limited quota. The file isn’t taking 19 months to process. Most of the time is waiting in a queue waiting to be assigned to an officer after over a year.

    2025 H&C Applications: Post your updates and questions

    Yes and wait times between AIP and PR will likely get longer than around a year as backlog grows. IRCC can’t prioritize H&C applications over economic and family sponsorship for example which make up the largest quota of PR. Without adding to the PR annual target how will you find more quota...

    Verification Of Status (Before Returning To Canada)

    Not sure I would say a very strong case. They are an adult, spent the majority of their life outside Canada, family are adult siblings that have apparently spent a large portion of their lives not living together. Mother relinquished PR and is being sponsored by children and chose not to include...

    Pathway for a diplomat to change status

    Don’t think so because you didn’t enter on a regular TRV or passport. You really need to speak to a lawyer because this transition is much more difficult than you may think. Are you trying to immigrate to Canada? How old are you? Do you have 2 degrees? Are you fluent in French?

    Visitor Visa Query for In-law, Pregnant wife

    So you included a letter from the OB? That often creates more harm than good. Agree that would contact MP. Processing is taking around 2-3 months for many so this is longer than average.
