Its unfortunate that IRCC dragged your case this long. In the next 30-60 days, hopefully you will exactly know whats going to happen. If your husband is going to be able to join you or not. Once you win your case and judge gives a decision in favor your husband's application - you should consult with your lawyer to file a another law suit of financial damages against IRCC - for all the time and delays IRCC kept this family apart, for all the expenses in flying over and meeting (if you went to see your husband) and any other financial impact you can think of which the family had to go through.Not yet. It's on 2nd stage now. My husband's lawyer submitted memorandum of argument. Ircc lawyer also submitted their argument. Now we have 10 days of submitting a reply memorandum of argument. No idea where it's taking us!
Unless IRCC is made financially liable for the damages it causes to other individuals - be it Canadian Citizens or Not - it is liable to them the moment it gobbles up their immigration fees and promotes their FALSE PROCESSING TIMELINES.
