TO TORONTO AND LETTER REFUSE ,?
ADR will take about 6 months but dont count on getting it. When they say 'not genuine" this usually means full hearing. Im afraid you might be in for a long wait. Make sure you keep e-mails, skype, vacation together etc. You will need to prove to them that your relationship is genuine and ongoing.yousef40 said:OK FRIEND YES I AGREE WITH YOU I ANDERSTAND SHE NEED PDF APEAL YES SHE HAVE THE will get ADR ,??

Did you guys have any red flags besides the fact you never met his parents?harryiswaiting said:We were refused in January of this year, thanks to an arrogant ahole of an immigration officer. After our interview (which he was totally unprofessional and rude during), we ordered the GCMS notes and it was as if they weren't even in the same interview! He totally lied and made things up, things which my then common-law partner (now husband) never would have said and weren't even true! We've appealed and hired a lawyer now. This has been really hard because we are apart again mostly due to financial reasons, and our lives are just totally disrupted and turned upside down because of his rotten decision. We're just so angry and upset with what's happened. We strongly feel that we've been totally discriminated against since we're a mixed couple, and it's so evident by the officer's notes. It just feels like an uphill battle and is so frustrating because genuine cases like ours are refused, while there are freaking marriage bureaus in Punjab which marry off villagers who can't even speak English to Canadians without a problem!! It's people like this who ruin it for everyone else! :'(
We only hope that one day (soon) we will be together here in Canada, so we have to be positive, look forward, and leave this anger for the officer/injustice behind us.
Anyhow, my question is, what is the ADR and full hearing waiting times for Vancouver? I am in Calgary now and was advised by my lawyer that it takes 10 or so months for an ADR and 18-24 months for a full hearing, but in Vancouver it can be a lot faster... I will most likely move to Vancouver if this is actually the case.
The same thing happened for us. We were shocked when we read the GCMS notes. It was full of assumptions, lies, made-up things and inaccuracies. The notes were entered in the system 7 weeks after the interview!!! So, we don't know what happened to the original notes. It was like the notes belong to another couple!harryiswaiting said:We were refused in January of this year, thanks to an arrogant ahole of an immigration officer.
