Not quite sure what you mean by doing a lot of sterling. If you arrived there in Canada and applied for H&C right away that is usually not a good way to get approved. It is unclear how long you have been in Canada and what makes your case an h&c case.
We were told by an immigration counsel who helped to prepare our app that there is a chance the immigration may reverse their decision (in case it is positive) once they learn that she left. So it is risky to leave. Was the counsel not correct?
Yes, I know. We did not have any other option. And today I am super worried because covid is an additional serious threat to everyone's health, no to mention a fragile elderly person. I am not even sure private insurance that I buy for her will cover the cost of treatment for covid.
There are multiple people on this forum that received response in less than 24 months. But every case is different, I understand.
Are you saying that if no response within 24 months, then most certainly rejection? You say unlikely AFTER 24 months?
I am 5 years in Canada. My refugees application denied from federal 2016 then I apply H&C 2018 may after this no news...
Immposible to say whether you have a good chance of being approved. Some get approved for H&C after asylum denial and some don’t.
things have changed with the H&C system which used to have an exact order but which made things even slower. Due to increased demand it seems like it is a one stage process now and steps can be completed in different orders depending on the application.
So now we are not expecting the first stage type of letter "Approved in principle" or smth like that? We have not heard a word since we received the letter acknowledging our submission in August 2018.
You should still be expecting the AIP letter. That's a normal part of the process. AIP can take up to two years to be issued. However it could take longer now due to COVID. So what you're experience is normal so far. Unfortunately it's hard to say how much longer you may be waiting.
