Hi, everyone. My name is Rey, and I'm gay from Philippines who got here in Canada as work visa or under work permit. My situation is very rare and I do need some opinion(s) which may apply on my case. here's my story. I got here last 2009 under work permit and later got nominated by my employer under AINP and went through the whole processing for PR and got denied due to my health condition. I moved to another City and found another employer and got another one year of work permit which is valid til January 4th 2013. After months, My employer tried to apply an LMO and got it approved and applied the work permit through online last December 28, 2012 which I believe I made it before my work permit got expired. I got a notification from CIC right away regarding my work permit extension online application and seems all good. Actually, been dating my Canadian boyfriend since September 2012 who lived in Edmonton and proposed me a marriage and got married January 21, 2013 through a civil wedding with a friends witnessed for us (which I believe It's not a marriage for convenience purposes because we love each other no matter what). There were 4 people who were witnessed because I don't have family here in Canada and my husband has a broken family and he couldn't find them. After we got married, I decided to continue working my employer and wait my work permit extension app. Months had passed by, I decided to resign and left my employer last June 2013 and moved to my husband/partner in Edmonton and planning to process an Inland Sponsorship.
After months of waiting of my work permit extension app I had an idea why CIC took long to approve/decide my WP extension due to my illness or health issue. My partner and I decided to submit the Inland Sponsorship Package with an open work permit application together and sent January 17, 2014 and got an email from CIC (AOR) with an Application Number on it.
Dear Sir XXXX
This confirms that your application to Sponsor a Member of the Family Class has been received by CIC on January 20,2014 on behalf of the following member(s)
Mr. XXXXX
So, at that time I felt safe literally at the same time worried for everything but I stay positive all the time. April 2014, I got a letter from CIC Edmonton informing that my work permit extension has been transferred from Vegreville to CIC Edmonton for verification purposes. After another week, I got another correspondence and they requested for my bank statement, credit card statement, etc. and yes I said to my self I was right why CIC took long to make a decision. When I submitted those documents, I also informed them that I already quit my job and even mentioned that I got legally married last January 21, 2013 and even seeked an advice what would be the best thing to do. To make the story short, CIC refused my work permit extension last July 11, 2014 through mail without any further noticed or advice.
My question this time,
* AM I still legal to stay in Canada even I got refused and I had an existing application under Inland Spousal Sponsorship? It was just a refusal letter and no further notice or order to leave Canada.
After a couple of days, A lady phoned me which I believed she is an Immigration Officer from Edmonton and explained to me why I got denied due to inadmissibility (health grounds) which I aware. She said, we (CIC) supposed to serve you a notice to leave the Country but since you do have an existing application under Family Class you can still stay here and wait for the decision and advised me not to seek another employment because guarantee will be another refusal. I was convinced those words from the Immigration Officer even it was just all verbal. I have never been issued any order from CIC nor CBSA so I was convinced and felt safe and all was OK.
May 17, 2015 CIC Mississauga emailed me and to get my medical done.
May 25, 2015 my partner got an email from CIC (Approved in Principle) or informing his eligibility to sponsor me as his spouse and the same date I got a letter requesting another documents like Philippine clearance, evidences our relationship includes, pictures, bank accounts, properties or anything that related to us as a couple.
October 15, 2015 CIC Mississauga emailed me that my application was transferred to CIC Vancouver for further assessment.
December 03, 2015 CIC Vancouver mailed me that this refers to your application for permanent residence has been determined that you meet the eligibility to apply under the Family Class. As what the letter says, I got approve the first stage of approval and I am qualified to apply for an Open Work permit which I had an application already with same package. I called the CIC call centre and made an inquiry about my old OWP application which I mailed long time.
December 04, 2015 Got another mail from CIC Vancouver asking to pay the RPRF and get Police Clearances like Philippines (NBI) and US (FBI) which I need both.
December 11, 2015 I tried to make a letter and faxed to them and explained everything about my work open permit application which I applied 2013 when I submitted the package and also those clearances which I also submitted together.
December 18, 2015 I got a call from CIC Vancouver informing that I don't need to get clearances (FBI&NBI) because they were able to find the old one. And she said about the work permit application was not applicable this time and I she advised me to pay the balance of $340.00 for my ($490.00)RPRF since I had paid the $150.00 for my OWP and I paid it before the Holidays.
December 22, 2015 my ECAS changed from " in process" to 'Decision Made " which I really shocked and very suspicious decision without passport request. I was really bothered and not so happy but stay very positive.
January 08, 2016 I got a mail from Canada Border Services Agency (CBSA) and right there I was scared even if I didn't open it yet. I said to myself this letter could be very something negative which very relevant to the Decision Made on my ECAS. yeah, it was a notice to appear a proceeding under subsection 44(2) ( interview)
This is to advise you that a proceeding by the Minister under Subsection 44(2) of the Immigration and refugee protection act is to be held. The purpose of the proceeding is to determine whether:
* you shall be authorized to enter or remain in Canada,
* a removal order should be issued against you.
Is a person who is a foreign national who has been authorized to enter Canada and who, in my opinion, is inadmissible pursuant to:
Subsection 41(a) in that, on a balance of probabilities, there are grounds to believe is a foreign national who is inadmissible for failing to comply with this act through an act or omission which contravenes, directly or indirectly, a provision of this Act, specifically:
The requirement of subsection 29 (2) of the Act that the temporary resident must leave Canada by the end of the period authorized for their stay.
This report is based on the following information that the above named individual:
* Is not a Canadian Citizen
* Is not a permanent Resident of Canada
* was refused an employment authorized by CIC Edmonton on July 11, 2014
* Has not received an extension to his status
Questions:
1.) Am I be issued for a removal as I am not aware of overstaying?
2.) I didn't get any further notice or a removal order when I got refused my work permit extension last July 2014, and before the refusal I had already submitted the sponsorship and got an Application number from CIC by March 2014.
3.) Was the refusal letter was served to me was a departure order too?
4.) Do you think I was right for did not go home voluntarily? There was no order or letter from the CIC that I have to leave the country.
5.) Do you think CBSA would consider me to stay in Canada and continue my application?
6.) for me It wasn't my fault because I had never receive any order to leave the country from CIC.
7.) My partner and I stressed out already and he is worried if I sent home.
Thank you so much.
Rey
