Immigration Appeals Division and Alternate Dispute Resolution

[Hibo03]

I would be grateful if someone could assist me with the subsequent steps following a favorable outcome of an appeal with the IAD.
Backstory- My PRTD application was denied due to not meeting the RO requirement. To maintain my PR status, I lodged an appeal with the IAD. A month ago, I received a favorable decision through the ADR process, but I have not received any further communication since then. I am uncertain about the next steps I need to take.

Hello Hibo03,

Greetings. I think as you have received a favourable decision through IAD , just wait for the PRTD. It’s very encouraging . However, may I know from which country did you apply and how many days you spent in Canada physically. I am in the similar situation. I have spent only 7 days in the past 5 years. Did you apply under H & C condition. Your response is highly appreciated.

warm regards,

Eusufzai

Hi Eusufzai,

At this point of time, I am not sure if waiting for the PRTD is the correct approach or not. In other words, I am not sure if the rejected PRTD application will be reopened and reworked, or I need to submit a new application.

Now to share some details about the case, as requested: I had spent over 720 days in Canada as on the day of exit from Canada. The appeal goes to the province of last residence, which for me was Ontario.

I had applied for a PRTD to return back to Canada which was ultimately rejected due to failure to meet the RO. Subsequently, I had to appeal with IAD to protect my status as a PR.
In that appeal, one has to share the details about the circumstances that warranted continuous absence from the country or any situation that demanded one's exit from the country. These should ideally be supported by genuine documents and proofs to say the least. And yes, it was under HnC.

What you should be planning on returning to Canada and remaining in Canada when you receive your approved PRTD. It is strange that you have not been asked to submit your passport. How long has it been since you received your written appeal approval?

I'm just anticipating the PRTD right now. However, it's challenging to make plans without clear guidance at this moment. It has been almost a month since the ADR hearing and three weeks since I received a formal communication.

Hi Hibo03
I am in the same situation. I contacted IAD for advice and they said I need to wait for IRCC to contact me. But I dont know the time frame and whether they will ask me to apply for PRTD again. Please can you update us on your situation.

There is no update yet.

@hopetime1 when did you receive the formal decision from IAD?

PS-I even tried contacting my ERO, Local Embassy, CBSA, IRB, no one was able to give any clarity. I did try to reach out to IRCC, but since web form is the only available method, I am still waiting for a response.

Hi Hibo03
I received the decision on May 7. I contacted IRCC by phone, they say I just need to wait. Please stay in touch if you have any answers, let me know. I will also update you.

Sure @hopetime1 , I will share the update. For you reference, I received the decision towards the end of February and a formal written verdict on 1st of March.

I am just curious, are you already in Canada since you were able to connect with them over the phone?

Hi @hopetime1 . I am not sure, if you replied back on my comment. I can only see my message.
I was wondering if you applied for PRTD from outside Canada or a PR renewal from within Canada. If applied for PRTD, Could you share the current status of the original application?

Regards

Suggest you work with a good immigration lawyer. Your case will be very challenging with only five days spent in Canada.
