Common Law Visa Application Under HC Case- Please shed some lights

[229builders]

I will give you our brief history:

We applied under Common Law - application under HC - same sex couple

1st we applied separately last 2010 the application of my partner went through but for me I did not push through because I can't get 7.0 in IELTS so I let my partner applied for the Skilled applicant that time and finally she got the PR card last 2014 and still I do not have anything I applied for IELTS I think 6 or 7 times and my score is always 6.5. so I stop

Last May 2017 my partner decided to go to Canada for good and I supported her for my case in order to be with her we consulted a lawyer then we have our application process under common law In short it was submitted last July 2017.

And the timeline is It was received in Misasuagga last July 2017 and it was forwarded to London office last Oct 6 due to my partner inability to sponsor me due to the reasons that she did not declare me during her application but we have a valid reason. We are staying in a muslim country and our relationship is not allowed we are living together for almost 17 years and we are not aware that time of the " common law" is applicable for us same sex couple.

Can anyone has the same case with us I am just worried and concerned what will be the outcome of our application.


If anyone can please give us some positive hopes it will be appreciated....

Unfortunately there's extremely little chance your application will be approved. Since your partner failed to declare your relationship and add you to the application before landing, you can never be sponsored. This is a very strict rule.

I would recommend you focus on qualifying to immigration on your own through Express Entry.

Agreed with the above. Ignorance of the rules is not an excuse. Especially for living together 17 years, you were most definitely common-law under Canada rules so should have been declared.

There are really no H&C factors to consider here (i.e. no best interest of child, no danger if you stay in home country, etc), so while you can certainly go to appeals the odds of being successful are incredibly low.
