I had an ADR in November 2019 and this is the questions that I remember :
please prepare all the questions what your blue book has ,Hey,I need help my hearing date is in two weeks. What questions will be asked for me and my wife? Can anyone send me a link to the question bank?
Any news from your lawyer?Hey MayTa,
I am in similar situation as yourself - My appeal won October 1st 2019 and reopened on October 30th 2019 in London office - Additional forms, medical, and police certificate were provided in February 2019 and nothing since - Any updates in your case?
I am also stressing about the CSQ now and if we will need to reapply - Did you get any clarity on this?
My entire application was handled via a lawyer, once we won the appeal, he told me congratulation and that now its just a matter of time before we get our application approved and complete - He was very honest and told me that his service is no longer needed at this time and to reach out if anything goes wrong.
I have E-mailed him to ask about the CSQ (awaiting Reply) - I have also told him I am still waiting and my application is not complete and he was extremely surprised that it is taking so long even with the covid situation. He is reaching out to the Counsel representative directly to get more information (that was 2 days ago).
Yes, he has Emailed me back yesterday stating that the counsel representative found the situation surprising and will be reaching out to the London Visa Office for more information.Any news from your lawyer?
I am curious tooHey,I need help my hearing date is in two weeks. What questions will be asked for me and my wife? Can anyone send me a link to the question bank?
Was the questioning harsh at your ADR?I had an ADR in November 2019 and this is the questions that I remember :
- How did you first meet ?
- How many times did you see eachother ?
- When you traveled to your country to see him, how long did you stay each time?
- Tell me your love story from the beginning (how you met first, how you started talkind, got engaged, got married)
- What is he planning to do when he comes to Canada ? (What kind of Work/study)
Then all the other questions were about the reason of refusal. You have to convinced them that your mariage is real and that the reason of refusal shouldn’t be taken in consideration..
My ADR was only 15 minutes long because the immigration agent was already convinced of our relationship because I sent them a lot of proofs (trips, tickets, messages, calls, pictures..)
goodluck!!
Hi I just wanted to ask how long your hearing take to complete and did they also question your spouse?. Were your questions similar to the ones the immigration officer asked in the blue book? My hearing was to be Feb 23 but my lawyer wanted to use the room at the IAD office so was changed to March now it's back to virtual due to covid with a new date pending.I had my virtual hearing a few weeks back, It was the Panel, Minister Counsel, me and my attorney. I made sure i was in a relaxed enviornment...no noise. I was only able to see the Panel and my attorney. I believe the Minister Counsel turned off her camera until it was her turn to question me.
My Panel started by introducing herself and the Minister, then sworn in, then explaining the procedures. My attorney started the questions and was interrupted a few times with follow up questions from the Panel. It was very smooth. Once you know your spouse and you're honest you should be fine. NO pressure.
My hearing was held in two sessions as virtual hearings are only 3 hours max. My attorney asked the most questions...everything that was already in the blue book but they are looking for contradictions so read over all information you submitted. I was questioned on the first day for 3 hours then my spouse the second session.Hi I just wanted to ask how long your hearing take to complete and did they also question your spouse?.

not really, the immigration agent was all serious at the beginning but started to smile after she told me that I won the ADR. She was writting all what I was saying and sometimes she was just looking at me in the eyes Without any emotion..Was the questioning harsh at your ADR?
In my case, I got the letter of refusal on April 16, 2019 and had my ADR on November 4, 2019. Usually when you fill for an appeal, you’ll get a few months later the blue book (so you can see the reasons of refusal and the notes of the agent of immigration). Then, you’ll get a call from an agent of SAI and they will tell you if you’ll have an ADR or a full hearing. Goodluck!Hello new here...
can someone please tell me what the timelines may be for getting ADR and then a hearing
From reading previous posts it seems some get approved at ADR and others at a hearing ...how long after a refusal can you get ADR and then or a hearing ...thank you in advance.
