hello everyone can some body help we just received PFL letter from cic.
This refers to your application for permanent residence in Canada as a member of the Family
Class.
I have reviewed your application and all of the documents you submitted in support of it. It
appears that you may not meet the requirements for immigration to Canada.
I have determined that you may not meet the requirements of the Immigration and Refugee
Protection Act because you do not appear to meet Section 4 of the IRPR.
The Immigration and Refugee Protection Regulations state, in subsection 4(1) that for the
purposes of these Regulations, a foreign national shall not be considered a spouse, a commonlaw
partner or a conjugal partner of a person if the marriage, common-law partnership or
conjugal partnership
(a) was entered into primarily for the purpose of acquiring any status or privilege under the
Act; or
(b) is not genuine
Subsection 117 (1) of the Regulations states that a foreign national is a member of the family
class if, with respect to a sponsor, the foreign national is
(a) the sponsor's spouse, common-law partner or conjugal partner;
Subsection 11(1) of the Act states that the visa or document shall be issued if, following an
examination, the officer is satisfied that the foreign national is not inadmissible and meets the
requirements of this Act. It appears that you do not meet the requirements of the Act for the
reasons set out above.
Before I make a final decision, you may submit additional information relating to these concerns.
You must provide any additional information within 30 days from the date of this letter
This additional information must include the following documents:
Client Information: Evidence of any in person visits between you and your
