My husband was denied because of a past criminal record, my only tip can be if you have a record, Apply for the record suspension asap because it's the only thing the will win over the ministry.
ALL SPOUSE APPEAL CASES COME HERE AND JOIN US PLZ

I know minister's counsel can be very harsh. Maybe we faced the same guy. Judge will make the decision based on all available evidence. You are the better judge of the situation. Many such cases are successful. But there is a lot of uncertainty. Wish you success!
It really depends on what are the reasons the minister counsel consent the appeal, because in order for the appeal to be allowed you need to prove 2 things.
(a) Immigration was not entered into primarily for the purpose of acquiring any status or privilege under the Act; and (b) Your marriage is genuine.
In general, most appeal cases were only about proofing (b) is suffice, however when the appellant or the applicant has immigration history or complicated marriage history in the past, then it might be difficult to satisfy (a). This is why understanding why your PR application is being rejected is very important for the appeal to be allowed.

On Monday CIC requested for schedule A, additional family information update as well as new generic application form to Canada. They said they will assess the file again in 30 days to make final decision. Praying they don’t make up any more reasons for delay.

They can't refuse on the same grounds again. It's very unlikely they can find another reason. Not requesting police clearance certificate and medical alongwith forms means longer wait for visa. It seems IRCC is further slowing down the processing of cases they reopen after appeal is allowed.
My eCAS started showing up again today and it reads 'in process'.
Could i expect request for documents within a month?
Ours was Jan 2017 and we won our appeal in Aug. On Oct 3 3018 we got request for new medical and schedule A form. The also requested the fees agsin, which i paid last year, saying they have no record of my payment. Thank God I was able to find a receipt! I honestly feel like they hold a grudge for losing the appeal and do whatever birthed to road block us longer! It's really unfair
I got request for document almost exactly 2 months from decision date of appeal
Really it’s make me confused that why after appeal allowed it’s make such delay
And can anyone explain that’s what’s are the other reason that they may reject the files again
And can anyone explain that’s what’s are the other reason that they may reject the files again
What’s means the final decision already your appeal is allowed so why they say like this to you and what’s are your appeal allowed date and date of reciveing Decision letter and after how much time they request for documents please share if you can
I would like to know this also. My husband was denied for criminality, but according to the notes in our file! There were no other issues. But I was just told that they are security screening him {which is I guess different from background check } abd takes much longer! I feel they are delaying on purpose
Can someone please explain what is the difference between security screening and criminality
application received Jan 10, 2017.
It was refused Jan 19, 2018 and re-opened Sept 4, 2018.
The standard processing time of 12 months does not apply in this non-routine file.
Sponsor and applicant eligibility has been met.
Security checks were initiated Oct 23, 2018 and are in progress. They cannot be expedited and timelines are not available.
Criminality has not started.
Medicals are valid until Oct 12, 2019.

Security clearance means a person won't pose any security threat to Canada.I would like to know this also. My husband was denied for criminality, but according to the notes in our file!

They may not be delaying on purpose but appeal cases are certainly not a priority for the visa offices. Such cases are put at bottom of the heap.
It hurts. Most of us have waited for more than 2 years. A couple of months of further delay we have to bear patiently.
