Costs refer to an award of the winning party's legal costs. If you win a legal case, the other side typically has to pay a significant portion of your legal bill.
I don’t believe this celebration is premature. Usually, when the government takes a look at the case, and agrees to settle out of court, their lawyer believes that the VO was wrong, and they would’ve lost in court. Hence the file is to be determined by a different VO, who is expected to make a proper determination.
Not all get approved afterwards. A new VO will review with a fresh set of eyes and approve or deny.
That's called Ghost Update which almost always great news. Call the IRCC callcenter and ask them what was the update about. Most likely you passed something.
You’re correct, but that is if he or she finds a different reason (valid) to deny. I doubt a VO will deny for the same reason for which they asked to settle out of court.
What are chances of Rejection after PFL ? after this Update ? What happens when a person normally gets this update ?
The settlement is just that the application will be reviewed by another VO. Just don’t want to person to celebrate until they 100% get approved.
You are correct again. The government realizes that the plaintiff has a very good chance of winning the case, hence they don’t want to defend the case, which will be a financial “burden“ on them. I doubt that a different VO will deny for the same reason. With regards to the celebration, I believe it’s hoping for the best
Sorry, I cannot answer these questions without pure guesswork. I suggest you to call them to know what the update was about.
Do you got any response I had the same situation but my spouse is outside country and we hardly cohabitate together for a year but in common we had a child. So my points were enough when I applied without claiming her points. But I unnecessary included. I hope you should have not stated you are in a common law relationship but if you got any reply kindly share your experience.
