Hey guys I am really stressed about my situation even though I am sure Its not as bad as what I have read on this forum
Sent my application Feb 15 2017
application received March 2 2017
Interview in New Delhi Dec 4th 2017
refusal letter received Dec 6th 2017
appeal submitted Dec 16th 2017
What happens after this
I live in Toronto Ontario
I sponsored my wife from Mehndranagar, Nepal but the closest Canadian consulate is in New Delhi, India
we were refused on grounds of a non genuine marriage, but the real reason was that my wife did not know I had trouble with the law in my past and that was a teenager, it was an arranged marriage and In our culture respect and all that between family is everything soo I didn't feel it was the right time to tell her soo the visa officer was very rude and very judgmental about my character as my wife and I have been together for two years now and are still married but has put a lot of tension between us and is causing big issues between us, I really just want to know how long it takes before my appeal is looked at and what happens after that, I have looked into hiring a lawyer but for my own piece of mind would like to know, thank you
