Hi everyone,
Who will receive full-hearing decision? My wife who is in abroad will also receive the Immigration Appeal Board decision.
Is it going to be via mail or email?

many thanks
 
We applied for inland spousal sponsorship in July 2015 and did our relationship interview in early May 2017. Yesterday we found out the application has been refused. I don't know the reason as yet as we have not receive the official letter as yet.
What are my options?
 
We appealed, I'm in Canada and sponsor. My husband and I received decision same day in person/telephone as he was testistfying by telephone. I was notified with a letter from IAD 2 weeks later.

Thank you for the information.
Did your husband also received a latter from IAD? or only you received it.

Unless things have changed, I believe that there is no avenue for appeal on an inland application. That is one of the risks you choose to take when you apply inland. Hopefully, there is someone on this forum that can tell me that I am full of beans.

Once you receive your refusal letter, it should outline the options available to you, if any.

Good luck.

Good day guys,
Till this moment since January 16, 2017 we have not received oir blue book. Getting frustrated now bcos not update from IAD nor CBSA.
What should I do now and my spouse seriously worrying from d separation... Your response or contribution always apprecisted.
Thank you

Don't give up yet. It took 180 days for us to get our blue book. Seems like the Visa Office lost an important document when transferring the file over to IAD, and then took their time to respond back saying they couldn't find it.

Your spouse will need to find a way to deal with the separation, as the appeal process is seriously slow, and there is more waiting ahead after you've receive your blue book. Have you already ordered your GCMS notes?

I think you should be receiving it this week or next. My husband and I waited 141 days for ours. I read somebody waited 2.5 months.

Only me as appeal was in Canada.

You cannot appeal since it's inland could be giant red flags age difference, culture or they feel in there gut marriage of convenience I suggest you reapply outland
 
The VO in Rabat.... her report is FULL OF LIES!

I called my husband RIGHT AFTER the interview on September 12, so I know what were the questions and what were his answers. The notes taken by the VO do NOT match with his answers and I am at a loss!

She asked him why I became Bahai and when was that. He said he did not know. This I believe is true as I don't recall talking to him about this.

He asked her why he loves me. He said because I am understanding, sweet and I don't smoke!!! LOL How ridiculous is that! What he said was that his religion and my religion have similarities, that is no alcohol no smoking. The VO mixed everything up!

The VO asked him to give her examples of situations in which his wife has demonstrated that she is understanding and he said NO. Huh?

She asked him if there are other reasons why he loves his wife. He said we like the same things. So she asked him what and he said "euhhhhhh". Huh

She asked her question again but in different ways and he did not respond. Huh That is not true! He said he gave her answers!

She asked him what are his wife's flaws. He said none. She does not believe that as nobody is perfect. He told me HE IS the one who said that, that nobody is perfect, not her!

She asked him something about age difference. He said he does not see or feel any differences between us. She told him how surprising is that since we are at different periods of our life and we don't have the same life experiences. She said my husband did not reply. That is NOT TRUE! He gave her a long answer which she did not noted obviously. I know what he said so I won't write it here as it would be too long.

My husband told her he loves me and that everybody thinks he is using me to immigrate to Canada, but it is not the case he said. My husband told the VO he loves my spirit, that we share a spiritual bond together and he feels he is in Paradise with me.

The VO asked him questions about me, my work, my leisure activities, my interests, my likes, my dislikes, my friends, my son, why not have a big wedding party in the traditions of Moroccans to have a big party. He did not answer. IT IS NOT TRUE!!! He answered them all! I remember his answers! As for the wedding, he explained why! I remember his answers and besides we practiced all the answers for 2 weeks prior to the interview!

The VO asked him questions about his future plans with his wife and he said they do not speak of it, but would really like to have children, it is important to him. The VO pointed out that this could be very difficult for us because of the advanced age of guarantor. THAT IS NOT TRUE!!!! Many times we speak of our future plans, we just did that in 3 years! He told her he wanted to work hard to help me pay off my debts and build a little house 2 floors on the land I purchased a couple of years ago! He also told her we planned to travel together to meet my parents. How can she lie like this! As for the children it is not true! He told her he never wanted to have any and he added that even if he was with a woman his age and having children with her, he would have another sort of challenges with this woman. He chose to be with me and have this challenge with me (not to have children) but at least he knows he is happy with me. He could be with another woman and have children but not have this happiness with her like he has with me. The VO asked him if we talked about this issue (children) and he said no. That is NOT true. We talked about this issue several times!!! How can she lie like this!

Here are the end of the notes:
Req provides a contact proofs and photos given that the applicant and the respondents do not share the same culture, do not share the same religion and have different life experiences, given the fact that applicant and respondents have a difference age is significantly incompatible with the customs and traditions of Morocco, given the fact that the applicant has a precarious socio-professional situation in Morocco, has no job and stable income, and immigration to Canada he would improve its financial situation and professional interview seems necessary to evaluate the good faith of the relationship.
We got denied in Rabat too, I'm waiting for my GCMS notes , I'm appealing it.
 
My husband and I had a very good meeting on Skype for 2 hours with our Immigration Consultant. You know what we discovered? The notes were written SIX WEEKS AFTER THE INTERVIEW! What happened? That is why the notes are full of lies and inventions! It is totally the OPPOSITE of what my husband said or not said! Did the VO delete our notes by mistake? Did she lose them in some way and 6 weeks later decided to write another set of notes? During ALL THAT TIME, she met and talked with other people and she dealt with many applications. Somehow she mixed my husband with someone else!!! According to our IC, she should have contacted my husband and asked him to come for a second interview. This is quite bizarre!
Omg that's crazy!! Can you contact me I'm just appealing our case. Alice.elkhirani@hotmail.com

i suspect officer had a bad day have something against you
 
Hello dear
I'm the sponsor.
I appealed in august 2016 in montreal and yes i had a consultant to help me.
ADR was not over the phone and it was in a conference room. There was no witness. I just brought pictures which was not included in my husband's initial application. My husband was not present in the adr, it was only me.
Did they call your husband? Thank you, Alice
