Congratulations.... pls how long did it took you to win ur appeal after refusal and did you hired a lawyer or immigration consultant to represent your appeal. ? I'm 2019 applicant and got refused on 5th may 2022 , hoping to appeal it so I want to know how to go about it... i will be glad if you can help me with some ideas. Thanks in advance
It took 8 months from the day was refused to have hearing, to decision on the appeal. I’d have a lawyer It cost $8500. It took 5 months to reopening the file. Don’t be discouraged I have couple friends, same visa office, their apps were reopen in less than 10 days after appeal allowed on same day If you go through the appeal and win you have higher probability your Visa get approved by May 2023 if not before.

Sorry we used an immigration attorney and the cost was close to 10k. Unfortunately I do not know any immigration consultants but ask your spouse to call around in the city/province they reside and I'm sure you guys can find one. OR you can ask right here in the forum, someone can probably refer you to one.

Good luck!! But please carefully weigh your options. Reapplying may not be the best way to go. Also if you are going to appeal their decision you need to submit the Appeal form. I believe you need to do this within 30 days of the refusal decision.
Thanks very much for ur response, I have realised the best thing to do is to appeal instead of reapply but honestly, the cost is what is blowing up my mind. It's so much. I wish I can hear from someone who represented themselves on an appeal to win their case to give me some guidelines about how to go about it.

I'm certain there are many who did...sorry no one is responding. I guess not too many people are on the forum now. Keep asking, someone will respond.

Just submit the appeal letter asap. We submitted ours July 2019 and the hearing was scheduled for March 2020 but due to Covid it was moved to September of 2020 and we won appeal January 2021, too IRCC one year to reopen our file. File was reopened January 2022 and my husband got PR in April 2022.

You can appeal alone but you gotta weigh in your options. Appealing alone vs appealing with a lawyer. Financial aspect vs knowledge of the law etc. Like Alexis said: you should send the notice of appeal (within 30 days of refusal date) and add a lawyer later of you wish. At least you will get the GCMS notes and u can reapply after withdrawing if thats what you want. We chose a lawyer because we were exausted and wanted a solid representation. In my case, it cost me less because I had an Early Resolution meeting but otherwise it ranges from 8000 to 10 000$. A friend of mine paid 11k for her appeal.
You can also have a consultant to guide you as needed. The choice is yours.

I will do exactly that, wanted to figure out if we could get a lawyer so that we hand the case to them but whether we are able to afford a lawyer or not, I will talk to my wife to submit the appeal. Is unfortunate that my wife doesn't know much about Internet stuffs, and all these delays plus the denial has broke up her heart so it's kinda hard for her to deal with the situation for us to move on to get what we want from the appeal. I'm so proud of u @Alexis as u are on this forum to fight so hard on this. I wish my wife could even jump on here to see how a lot of people are fighting for this.

I will do my best to submit the appeal and I hope I can find a lawyer that will allow us to pay in installments cause I think we will be able to afford that if we have to pay it as such but not sure we can pay everything in full if they will demand payment in full. Can we fill the appeal letter without including no law firm or any lawyer and add a lawyer or law firm before the hearing since we haven't talked to any lawyer yet and I think we need to submit the appeal letter as soon as possible
