My name is Hana, I really appreciate every input on this forum, Im a refugee and my case was refused on January, I applied for federal court and refused on june, im divorced with a baby and living with my boyfriend, what is my next chances for survival ? i dont want to go back, how soon will CBSA contact for deport? plz advice
If you and your boyfriend get married, he can submit a sponsorship for you as soon as the application forms are ready. Or you can wait until you have lived together for 12 months, and then he can sponsor you as his common-law partner. For common-law, you will need proof you have been living together for 12 months.
I`m not sure how soon CBSA will contact you for the deportation.
Once your sponsorship application is received, CIC usually allows failed refugee claimants to stay, as noted above.
There are things you can do to help your sponsorship be approved. Is your boyfriend the father of your baby? If he is not, the visa officer will want to see that he and the child have developed a close relationship.
You will need to prove your relationship is genuine. Because of the failed refugee attempt, the visa officer may think you are in this relationship just to stay in Canada. You must prove that your relationship is genuine. Get as much proof as you can that your finances are joined (joint bank account, joint credit cards, both names on the mortgage or lease, both names on the utility bills, each other listed as beneficiaries on life insurance, anything like that. If you can`t get some of these, it should still be OK, but try.
Also try to integrate yourself as much as possible into the life of the city where you live: the more established you are in Canada, the more likely it is that you will be allowed to stay. For example, if you are religious, become actively involved in your church (or whatever). Try to make friends with other families. Basically do things that will integrate you into the community.
