    What do we do now?

    Ok when I wrote the post last night, I was really emotional and I meant I understand my husband and his family. I never told the judge I was almost fluent, I just told you all on here I was. Sorry I was only considering with Murat and his family, how we can understand. I know I am not fluent, I...

    What do we do now?

    In August of 2010 my husband and I were refused his permanent residence status because of his interview and because they did not believe we had a genuine marriage. Now I know that people will read this and have their judgements about us (probably questioning whether I am being duped), but hold...

    How many in the midst of the appeal process?

    Well I guess that makes me feel a little better (not much lol) hearing that it could take longer than a month. I just don't really know what to do with myself while I am waiting. Right now I am staying with my son and his wife and I really don't like stressing everyone out with my worries so I'm...

    How many in the midst of the appeal process?

    Well I contacted my local MP about my case because it will be 1 month(April 19th) since my appeal hearing, and I was told the decision would be received by me in the mail. Anyways, she messaged me back a day later and told me that they had still not come to a decision and that would probably...

    How many in the midst of the appeal process?

    Thanks so much. I'm really hoping too. I will post what happens when I hear. It's been 2 weeks tomorrow since my appeal hearing. It can't be too much longer, I'm hoping...

    How many in the midst of the appeal process?

    I kind of wondered that too. I wondered it right until the day of my appeal hearing. It was a full blown hearing. I only waited 9 months from the time my husband was refused after his interview. They believed our marriage to be a marriage of convenience, as I understood from the papers I...

    How many in the midst of the appeal process?

    We don't know for sure what they are gonna say and the judge said the decision would be mailed to me. So maybe they still had to think it over. It's been one week since my hearing, I sure hope I hear something soon. My husband and I are both worn out from this whole process, mentally, physically...

    Why am I still here

    You folks who offer advice and support, I would just like to say thanks. I have never gone through such an excruciating time in my life as I have, dealing with Canada Immigration. I don't always think to come on here when I'm going through a difficult time or I'm confused as to what to do, but...

    How many in the midst of the appeal process?

    When my husband had his interview he was refused by mail. We waited a few months before we got the refusal letter. It was a horrible long wait. Now we're waiting again.

    How many in the midst of the appeal process?

    Well I'll post the decision when I get it. We really are hoping for good news. The lawyer and the judge tested my Turkish and my husbands' English(even though I told them, he knows very little). I was nervous and barely understood the interpreters Turkish, and I know my Turkish is way better...

    How many in the midst of the appeal process?

    Yes I finally did see my CAIP notes. They just really don't believe he married me for any reason other than to get a Visa. They think he'll come to Canada and then leave me. That I am being duped. We've been married for almost two years and I've been living there for almost 7 months. I came all...

    How many in the midst of the appeal process?

    It was a formal hearing. The opposing lawyer for Kanada me and a judge. I felt pretty ganged up on.

    How many in the midst of the appeal process?

    When I first heard that I was granted an appeal I spoke to this woman about witnesses. I asked if my mother would be a good witness to have with me to testify on my behalf. But she didn't seem to think so unless I could say exactly how long it would take for her to talk. she also stated it would...

    How many in the midst of the appeal process?

    The judge said I would be given an answer by mail. I have no idea how long that will be. But if the wait I had after my husbands interview is any indication it could be 5-6 weeks.

    How many in the midst of the appeal process?

    Well I had my appeal yesterday. It was terrible. I thought I was prepared but I wasn't. It was me against some really mean nasty lawyer who was doing everything in his power to make my husband look like he only married me to get into the country. Even though I have been living in Istanbul for 6...

    How many in the midst of the appeal process?

    No because I chose to not have a lawyer when they asked me. It said I didn't really need to have a lawyer and we can't really afford to have one. I have been living in Istanbul for the last 6 months and just came home for my hearing.

    How many in the midst of the appeal process?

    How do you know if its an ADR hearing or a full hearing? It doesn't say on any of my papers.

    How many in the midst of the appeal process?

    I appealed my case near the end of August and I have an appeal hearing on April 19th 2011. So that was 8 months of waiting. I'm not really sure why I got it so fast. I was expecting to have my case heard in October or November. In fact, when I contacted my local MP, they told me just that. One...

    What about sticking them all on a CD. Is that so unreasonable?

    Bring a translator to the interview or not?

    I never knew that it was an option to use a translator when my husband had his interview. It sure would've helped if he had because we asked to have his interview conducted in Turkish because his english was atrocious(love you honey!) but the woman who interviewed him was not fluent in Turkish...
