I need to familiarize myself with the appeal process as I just got the denial email from irrcc and appeal is our next step. How long have you been waiting? Do you have a lawyer or you’re doing it yourself? What’s the overall process if anyone can kindly please guide me I’d appreciate
We waited from 2019 to 2021 for an appeal but of course covid came and delayed everything even more finally we won our appeal feb 2021 Rabat immigration received our file exactly 1 month ago nothing since then if you need a lawyer I can recommend mine he's amazing

If you have a chance, you can check his response history.
He withdrew his application after his wife got an interview and he thought withdrew will be a smart choice. He thought that could make his application's gcms clean. But actually everything had been already written in the gcms notes even the application is withdrawn. I really cannot get his point.
because a refusal is worse if you do not intend to APPEAL (it means you agree with their decision), and I did not wish to appeal an application with too many flaws, concerns, and 20 red flags etc. Generally it is recommended by lawyers to withdraw and reapply if the application was poorly made and I admit I definitely went in blind/totally unprepared but after 2 years of this and much research, I totally understand how it has to be done.
Appealing in some cases is an uphill battle, there are many unfortunate souls who got denied at appeal, spent many thousands of dollars down the toilet and now will have extreme difficulty to sponsor their spouses again due to Res Judicata.
I truly wish every one on this thread to succeed.

I'm always going to be here positively supporting people who are in the same boat. Try to keep your negative responses to yourself, it doesn't help.
Speaking the truth is better than sugar coating, if you are in denial thats your problem. I am never negative, I tell it like it is.

Thank you!

We were refused after interview in Accra in February 2020. Our appeal was January 15, 2021 where we received verbal decision of winning. Then we heard nothing until yesterday when our GCKEY status was updated, and received pre-arrival today

Congratulations on your recent update. I pray we all hear good news before the year runs out. Did they ask you for medical as well or it was just pre-arrival services.?
