I need help on how we could continue our application from within Canada with my partner who is Mexican. We have gone past the first stages of approval, he has received a work permit (which does not permit re-entry) and has sent in all the necessary information (medical, police checks) in order to complete the application process.
Here is the problem: We submitted the application in October with no intention of leaving Canada. However, his uncle and father passed away very suddenly with days of each other and there was no other option for us other then to return to Mexico. With that being said, all of his VISAS had expired and he had overstayed his study VISA. The point of his entire PR application from within Canada was to fix this problem with his VISAS, and to say the least it has been a terrible struggle since then to bring him back to Canada in order to do so. We have tried a application to the Mexico City embassy as a private visitor which was refused, and we have tried as a temporary resident under the working class section when he received his work permit which was also the most recently refused.
Through this entire process we have had a lawyer supervising/advising us how to move forward. At this moment in time we are appealing the last application with the lawyer and asking that he could be permitted to enter into Canada so that he could complete his permanent residency application (even if it is just so that he can attend the interview) so that all this time that has past does not go to waste.
Does anyone have any advice they could offer us?
