I firmly now believe that the only way to deal effectively with CIC and their absolutely inappropriate handling of Citizenship cases is to deal with it legally. I also don't believe that on top of spending thousands of dollars on the initial application that we should be forced to spend another fortune on a lawyer only to have them take each application seriously, which is something they should be doing anyhow.
I have read numerous posts on here over the "YEARS" (yes, years I've been waiting for my wife's application to go through) on people who filed a mandamus only to have their application quickly dealt with as a result.
I implore anyone who has legal access to a complete mandamus to provide it to members on this forum so that we may file one ourselves, especially if we seek fair treatment and do not have the funds to hire lawyers to attain it.
I am sure I am not the only one who would greatly appreciate those of you that would share this information with us. And please, if you have any advice, share it, but do not advise us not to pursue filing one without a lawyer; if it was $500 I would look into it. But for $2000, I simply cannot afford it.
