I just got a letter from CIC and said I am not eligible as a sponsor for my parents due to my husband's (he is the cosigner) previous undertaking. We have selected to continue to proceed even if we are ineligible, which give us some time to fix this. But we don't know how much time we have before they make the final decision and close my case. It's been 5 years now since I submitted the application and finally get to the process stage. I am very very upset and don't want to re-submit next year and wait for another 5 years.
We have called Overpayment Recovery Unit immediately when we got the letter from CIC, but they said they don't have any records in their system. Then we sent a letter back to CIC, ask them to provide more detail information about the default in previous undertaking. And promised that we are willing to repay the full amount of any welfare that from my husband's previous undertaking people (his ex-wife maybe) which my husband was not aware.
After we sent out the letter to CIC, the recovery unit called and said that they found out his ex-wife did receive the welfare back in 2004/2005 after they divorced, but they need 4 to 6 weeks to figure out how much his ex-wife took so that we can make the payment.
Anyone has a similar case before can share your experience?
How long does it take them (CIC) to make a final decision? Will CIC re-consider my eligibility after we repay the welfare that his ex-wife took?
Thanks in advance.
