I have been gone for quite so long but now i am back with a great news...we won the appeal at last!!! It was such a long legal battle and we finally have proven the merit of our case. Quite few members in here were kinda negative that we will win our appeal case but me and my partner just keep going and being steadfast that we will make it in the end. After we lost the 1st appeal case, we never stopped. We seek for the another legal avenue where we can fight our case. We ended up filling before the Federal Court for leave and judicial review and we won the Federal. So our case was sent back to IAD for re determination and be heard by different member. We had our 2nd appeal case last March 21, 2016, we received the decision last June 4, 2016.

I am so happy the we finally won our appeal. Thank you for all the advice and comments. It made me strong to move forward and go for it. I have a question though, how long will it gonna take before i can finally get the visa? Hope to hear from anyone. :)
Congratulations! Its good you took the negativity and turn it onto positive energy. Its not easy going through this long battle and the last thing you need is negative people telling you otherwise...

It should be another 5 month or so before you get your visa...they will ask you for updated forms, remedical (if it is already expired) and police clearance...after that they will issue you your visa...

hey there oneness, our timeline is quite close. Won appeal in Dec, 2015, got medical and updated forms request in April, sent them to cic ottawa end of April, now my e-case still doesn't show Medical Result has been received yet? only says they started processing my case in april, 2016, nothing about medical, even i did it early April. How about your e-case? anything mentioned about medical ? Thank you and good luck.
Hey my ecase was blank for a while and when it came back it shows appliction started in 2012. Like yours we submitted medicls, updated form and policae clearance in April perhaps today makes it 2 months we submitted those stuff. I strongly believe we are getting our viss this month or sometime in july, from what i read from others 7-8 months after appeal is idew time line. I just hope for the best.

I have no idea why he could not answer the daily questions as we have lived together and my daily routine is basically the same in Cuba as it is in Canada.
Unless you've never told him what you do in Canada, which would be kind of unusual for a married couple in a long relationship, I would definitely ask him about this. See whether if he really did answer the questions correctly, or he really doesn't know. If it's the latter, I might be a bit concerned more about him than what CIC thinks.

Hello

I was just wondering when you get passport request, do you send it to Ottawa and then they send it back? Do you need to pay for the postage twice? Or can you get it all done at the Canadian embassy?

Thanks

you will have to send it to where ever the instructions tell you to send it. if your visa office is ottawa and you require a physical visa to be added to your passport, then yes, that is where it will be sent most likely. if the application is at another visa office, then instructions will be given for sending it there. If the person is visa exempt, then the physical passport will not be sent, only a copy will be needed.

Thank you for your response...even before i never took the negative comments in a bad way but i took it as a challenge instead. I actually thankful for all the comments negative/positive because it gave me courage to move forward...perseverance, tenacity and strong faith with God will help us to go through difficult times...

I am glad to know that it will might take 5 months or so before i can get my visa...i was thinking really that it might take another year or two..... :)

Does Ecas ever change to tell you they've received your updated documents or passport request? Or does it just go to decision made after medical received?

Hello Oneness
Yes we did submit our documents. they have send us the letter supposedly on Oct 27 but we did not receive it till november 17 i think it was. We have send all the documents in early December. Our visa office was Paris but we were asked to send our documents to ottawa for processing and as far as i know that is where they are being processed. They told my MP that my husbands file has passed the medical and crim check and In mid March was send for security checks...they did not give us any time framework.
Hey soblue me and you share same timeline I have won appeal August and got letter October 26 and sent it December 09 and just few weeks ago I contacted mp and he said meds and background check is passed waiting for security check I have recently went to the hospital because panick attack and my mp said its good to let them know that you are stressing and went through this problem so I sent all papers to Ottawa seriously I don't know when will this nightmare will end :'(

Hi All, my spouse just got an interview in Hong Kong and the VO reject it the next day, I was with my wife at the interview but the VO didn't interview me (Sponsor) at all.

The refusal letter state that:

Based on the assessment of your information, including your application, the supporting documentation, and the information you provided during your interview, held at the Consulate General of Canada in Hong Kong, I am not satisfied that your marriage to your sponsor is genuine or that it was not entered into primarily for the purpose of acquiring permanent residence in Canada. Therefore, as per the Regulations, you are not considered to be a member of the family class.

I am going to appeal in Toronto, but just a few questions:

1) What are my chances to get a ADR?

2) On the top right corner of the appeal form IRB428, there is a box for Visa office and Visa file no., do I fill out Hong Kong in the Visa box since my wife application is processed in Hong Kong and the Visa file no. is just her application number.

Thx

Hi we won our ADR on 8th March and also have already sent all the required docs.. And the status online is decision made and it's mentioned that they have sent the correspondence of the decision on May 14 2016. But I haven't received anything yet and they haven't even updated my new address on the system wen i have already emailed them my change of address.. Do they send in my mail or my husband's mail.. Do they send anything to my email at all?? How does this work? I am the principle applicant And reside in Australia.. If anyone could help me out it will be much appreciated
