wintersnow,i am sorry about your story wish you all the best keep moving please what is difference ADR and IAD,
IAD is the division that handles the appeals (Immigration Appeals Division). ADR (Alternative Dispute Resolution) is a mediation session that is given to certain cases as a pre-cursor to a full hearing.

OMG! I am so sorry that your poor wife went through such a traumatic interview, it appears they treated her no better then a criminal convicted of a serious crime . This is so disturbing, I too am ashamed to be Canadian. Yet at one time prided myself on such. My father gave himself to this country as a Native Metis/ Cree... Served this country for many years till retirement, several tours of duty to the Middle East leaving his family for many months at a time. I to invested many years with the Government in Alberta with Native Multi service team taking in 32 infants born addicted to crack, coccain, alcohol and born to HIV moms... Did this for several years till being diagnosed with Liver issue. Have even adopted two of the little ones. Both Vietnamese mix with Native and African. Love them to bits.
Having VO question my ability to deal with different culture and race of my spouse is simply sickening as my entire family is diverse and made up of many cultures. My Grandfather immigrated from UKand married my Native Grandmother (28yrs difference in age too) she went to her grave with his ring on her finger 30yrs after his death... " he was man enough for me". All off this included in government issued genealogy from my father's military info.
I asked my Government one frickin thing!!!! Please let me live with my husband here in my own country and they refuse!!!! I give them everything they asked for and still not good enough... I am ashamed VERY ashamed!
Heart breaking..,hope eventually everything turns out positively...

Wintersnow/Kistehsia, I too share the sympathy for you with everyone else here. Hope you get thru this once more and beat the system like many of us eventually did.

Well to be honest the waiting game after winning isn't so much fun either. Bunch of people sitting in their office not doing anything about your file...

When I think about it, even after we get everything we want there's always gonna be judgemental decisions, abuse of power/authority, mistreating of people. If this isn't Bureaucracy I don't know what is.

But after all we choose to be Canadians (not quite like the old days where all Canadians were friendly to each other and you'd get help out on a street from complete stranger but) so it has to be better place to live than most other countries.

Don't despair! Do you have a lawyer? Many have been successful without one. My advice to you is focus on this

1) Be familiar with your history (how you met, etc.) and the reasons the VO dismissed your case. The minister's counsel may not even discuss this (as was my situation) but you must be prepared anyways.

2) Make the minister's counsel believe you. A big problem with me was she believed me, but I think she suspected I was a likely candidate to be taken advantage of. Make them believe you are convinced the relationship is genuine and that you cannot be fooled easily.

3) Be prepared to defend your partner. Find examples from what you submitted that support the claim your partner is genuine, responsible and would not take advantage of anyone. I could have said many things that prove my partner is genuine.

4) The minister's counsel will ask questions .... you must find a way to insert positive aspects of your relationship in the conversation.

5) If the counsel is being rude or otherwise unprofessional ... ask to have him/her replaced
Thanks wintersnow. I am not sure how it is going to go. I hired a lawyer just for our safe side. Hopefully good happens. Thanks for your information. Really I appreciate your help. I will follow your points. :)

I will tell you how I prepared my documents etc.
1. First page was table off contents. ( a list from 1-?? However many )
Example....

Table of Contents
1. Cover letters from myself and husband. Number each page and use a tab divider with the #1 written on it.
2. Letter of Recommendation from Alberta Health Management. Again number each page and use tab divider with #2 written on it.

Continue in this fashion for each document (evidence you wish to enter.)
Most importantly make sure you number pages in each document. Also make sure your table of contents match your tab numbers.
I kept my hundreds of pages chat as last last document in its own binders. REMEMBER to also write your file/case number on first page of each document.

Hope this helps ... If any questions let me know.

P.S remember one copy to IAD and one copy to Minister's Counsel
