To anybody who need a template e-mail to request for a copy of your refusal letter from IRCC, below is a copy...

That's what I use and IRCC responded to me unless than 24hrs. If it takes longer, don't worry, they will still response.

Remember to attach a copy of your decision letter to the email


The IRCC office that email you your "decision letter "should be the office you sent an email. The email they use to send you your decision letter is the SAME email you should use to request for a copy of your refusal letter.

Like mine, the Vancouver office are the ones that refused my first H&C I gave to a lawyer. They email me my decision letter through this email

vancouverbro@cic.gc.ca

It was the same email I use to request for my refusal letter.....

Pls note : the email might have changed since it was what they use years ago..that why I recommend.you check the e-mail they use to send your own decision letter. Request for refusal letter through the SAME email




Dear IRCC officer,

I am writing in regards to my refused H & C application I receive a copy of my decision letter on ( write date here). I will like to request a copy of the reason(s) for the refusal of my application.

I have also attached a copy of my decision letter to this email to assist you with my personal information.

I will be very grateful if you can kindly email me a copy of the reason(s) for the refusal of my application at the earliest convenient time.

Looking forward to your response.

I don't think you clearly understood what I said. What I meant is that is that in the eyes of IRCC, the applicant 's application/case lacks merit.

It boils to how an applicant package and present their H&C arguments, immigration story and evidence.

You need to understand that even if in the "eyes of an applicant", they feel their case have merit, if the applicant don't present and package their argument(s) and immigration story properly BACKED WITH COMPELLING EVIDENCE and ensure they leave NO ROOM FOR AMBIGUITY OR DOUBT(S) in the application , it doesn't matter how their case warranty compassion, it will be "refused".

Remember, when an application is submitted, the applicant will not be at IRCC office to defend anything that is confusing in their arguments, missing or difficult to understand or something that is OPEN TO DIFFERENT INTERPRETATIONS in your submission.

IRCC make decisions base on your submission. This is why it vital to give someone who you are NOT related to proofread and check your application multiple times before submission. The person will be LESS bias and wil easily spot flaw(s) in your submission .

It worth noting that what IRCC does is that they are looking for flaws or loopholes in your arguments and immigration story that they can use as an excuse to get it refused. This is why I said you should LEAVE NO ROOM FOR DOUBT or AMBIGUITY. ENSURE YOU BLOCK or PATCH UP ANY POTENTIAL LOOPHOLE THEY CAN EXPLOIT IN YOUR ARGUMENTS that will attract refusal.

So, it is not about whether or not an applicant thinks their case and application have merit. It depends on the how the officer interpret your argument, immigration story and evidence.


One more thing I need to mention.....

The way you have to present your argument(s) overall should reflect and demonstrates that YOUR TIES TO CANADA IS "GREATER" THAM YOUR TIES TO YOUR HOME COUNTRY through your arguments such base on establishment, hardship, best interest of child, medical
etc

.this is the key thing officer is trying to access in your OVERALL in your submission. IF AN OFFICER CAN CONCLUDE THAT YOUR TIES YOUR TIES TO HOME COUNTRY IS GREATER THAN TIES TO CANADA base on your submission, there is possibility of a refusal and could be ask to go home.

IRCC do not care about an applicant "feelings". Just do the proper thing before submission.



Source : I did my application myself and was approved within 9month. Keep in mind I am single with NO kids. I also helped others that their application got approved as well.

I will not be saying something I have no knowledge about.

If in doubt, check all my post on this forum in the year 2020, 2021 and 2022. We were the top gurus during that time. Also, @Ayanna , @Kaytoon , @tony etc... I can't remember all of their names.Shout out to them all.

Wish you the best !
@bella12 It was your post I read in this forum on how to put arguments together and back it with compelling evidence that helped
us to apply for reconsideration when our application was refused in 2022 and thanks to your great knowledge we are now permanent residence of Canada. May God continue to bless all that concerns you.
