ALL SPOUSE APPEAL CASES COME HERE AND JOIN US PLZ

[2016jimi]

answers to your questions:

1 - I don't think IRB accepts anything other than printed copy.
2 - I submitted over 1000 pages of translated text. I used an online translator. The IRB and Minister's counsel did not object and accepted the evidence.

I us

You can even do a direct translate in MS Word I believe (the newer versions).

I know you fired your lawyer. Some are incompetent and sometimes you are better off representing yourself . However, don't simply assume the truth will win. I have been on this forum for 2 years now and the system is not good or fair. Be prepared. A number of members here have gone through this without a lawyer. You should rely on their help.

On the bright side though. I have only seen one case that was not successful on appeal.

Last Tuesday I received a phone call in the evening at 7 pm from IAD telling me to come for ADR on end of September, 2016 ;D

So the nest day I went to the Toronto office dropped off two copies of additional material. On binder to suite #1001 and another to suite #200, Apparently the staff there were very friendly. :-X

Last Friday I received the letter "notice To Appear" at an ADR conference.

Now I have to wait and see what's going on at ADR. I don't have lawyer I am going to answer all questions and just tell the truths.

Do anyone have any suggestion or experience to share with me?

Thanks.

Yes it was in Toronto and the judge was a young guy but I don't know his name. Once we get our letter I'll be able to tell you his name.


About your 60 days waiting time don't worry. What I have seen here people who gone for waiting for their decision they usually gets their appeal allowed.


Best regards

My judge was an old guy and seems Gud as he didn't ask me any question but asked my husband few questions only bout where do I love wen v get married how much my income was last year and y he z getting financially support knowing after I hv a low income but nothing bout our age difference. But just little bit worried if he z gonna decide on d base question he asked or he z deciding the case as minister counsel thinking.

appealsp I was told I could send proof at any time to both addresses on the appeal notice by the agent looking at my appeal in Montreal. I plan to do this and just attach my appleal file number and case number to the proof. I want them to know that I am actively perparing for the appeal.

Galano, I am wondering if it might be better to hold off on sending your evidence for a while. Rather than sending what you have when you find it, just date it and save it. Once you have had enough, organize it and send it in as one (or two) structured and cohesive document(s). That way, you can have related documents together in one section, rather than your dog's breakfast, which has little bits of everything here and there.

Remember, the evidence that you send in should have an index page, be consecutively numbered, etc. as they will be referencing this evidence during the hearing, or hopefully, the ADR. If your case is fairly simple, you may want to submit your evidence as soon as possible, so it can be considered when deciding whether or not to grant you an ADR. You will find that most of the evidence that you had included with your application has been stripped away in the BB. You will need to re-include those with your evidence for the appeal.

Would love to hear from people who have done it either way, and whether they would do it differently if they had to do it all over again.

Galano, are you working with a consultant or lawyer, or are you planning to do this on your own?

 

[Galano1213]

I have already been granted an ADR and no I do not have a lawyer or a consultant. The appeal Board in Montreal the agent working on our case has told me that the ADR will be held by teleconference and that it will be most likely in Oct or Nove . There is no set date as yet. I am addressing the denial reasons in a cover letter and attaching travel , calls, money transfers and pics since my husbands interview in Jan 2016. I am also giving an overview of the development of the relationship since 2010. I was told by the agent that I could sent info at any time and that I would receive a letter 10 -20 days prior to the date of the teleconference and would only have 10 days to send info at that time.

Thank you for your information wait- so -long

After you received your BB and before you got the call, dd you provide your submissions to IAD?

Here is the Timeline:

Dec 12, 2015 I sent in my appeal. It was 3 months late (suppose to be sent in 30 days) due to some issues with my lawyer. I fired the lawyer do it by myself.


Feb 29, 2016, IAD refused to accept my late appeal application even I explained in details what was going on with my lawyer asking for more money. IAD stand firm, no late appeal allowed, period.

It stated clearly on the letter, no late appeal accepted and the reasons were not good enough. They given us 2 choices either to refund the money or restart the whole process again with a new application. We did not know what to do !!!

May 27, 2016 . A miracle happened, Allah!!!. We received a letter from IAD's lawyer stated they reexamined our reasons for the late appeal, they decided to allow us to send in a new appeal given us 60 days to do it. They even given a direct line to contact her if we have any questions.

May 28, 2016. I sent in my appeal.

July 31. 2016. received the Blue Book from Singapore VO. On the letter it stated 20 days to send in more material before hearing.

Aug 16, 2016. IAD called me in the evening to ask do I accept to come for ADR by end of Sept 2016. My answer is why not ??

Aug 17,2016 dropped off 2 binders of material to Toronto office.

Aug 19,2016 received a letter with date and time to come for ADR in 5 weeks time.


I was little suprised of the speed of the development

Not much I can do now is to pray.
Anyway, Monday I am going to call IAD to talk to the ERO (Early Resolve office). she have given us a direct line to contact her if we have any further question.

We sent as much as possible as soon as we got the blue book. I think this helped get an ADR ... there was so much evidence. We then sent additional information before the time limit for the ADR ... and then sent more information before the time limit of our hearing.

I don't know how it was organized. My lawyer did it all.

Here is the Timeline:


Aug 17,2016 dropped off 2 binders of material to Toronto office.

Hi jimi, so drop off at the office is allowed or you have to mail it in?

So, before the call on Aug 16, you had not submitted any submissions to IAD? If yes, then did they call on the basis of information n the BB?

Thank you so much for sharing information.
