Legacy Claimant

[Orchid7]

Hello,I would like to ask for some advices .. I came in Canada 2011 ,since then My life changed...
I got married this summer,after one month I got a letter from the Immigration apologizing for delay however my case going to be scheduled for a hearing.We wanted to submit the spouse sponsorship....but now what should I do ? I am still waiting for my marriage certificate...Hopefully I will get soon ... should I still send the sponsorship application ? Or wait? Can I get deported? What's gonna happen? I am so scared,after 6 years waiting, freshly married ....Please help me with some advice It's very stressful

Is your spouse a Canadian citizen/pr or are you the one trying to sponsor someone?

You should be getting a hearing somewhat soon as a legacy claimant so it is really up to you. If you feel you have a strong case you would probably get approval faster as a refugee. You can appeal if you don't get approval and send in your spousal sponsorship at the same time. That's what I would do.

Thank You for your response .I appreciate it so much !!!
The only problem in my case I can't appeal because I am from designated country ...and how I heard :If I file my sponsorship after a negative decision ,more likely I will get deported....and I will need to resend the application from Outland .Which is horrible because I have nowhere to go .
