OMNIBUS BUDGET BILL, C-38

[Mancilla]

It's ONLY for litigants who filed their case prior to OMNI BUS BILL C-38 coming into force.

There is a separate hearing this coming Tuesday for challenging the legality of slashing the backloggers applicants.

Thanks for the update,
how about those pre-2008 applicants weren't involved in above litigation, what will happen to them and how soon you think cic will start to send a refunding letters and return the applications for those 280,0000 and any chance for the other 20,000 (decision made before March 29) to be asked for medicals by end of this year?

Dear Mancilla,

Any reference to this statement?

BACKLOGGERS LITIGATION UPDATE

CIC filed their arguments on Sep 10th. Their argument is, only litigants who joined on or before June 14th 2012, files can be and will be processed as per judgement by Justice Rennie.
Arguments on behalf of backloggers is that all litigants filed until the judgement is passed should and must be
processed within 180 days of receiving all relevant documents. This was filed yesterday.
The ball is now in Justice Barnes's Court. We await his decision, hopefully, by next week.

Dear Mancilla,

I appreciated the fact that you keep us posted. I just want to know if there's a difference in the law suit as you mentioned before Bill C38 and pre 14June'12 applications I Know my lawyer applied before the 14th of June and i was told by him abou the court case tomorrow 18.09.2012, does that mean my case does not fall under the 180 days?

Justice Barnes refused to enjoin CIC from acting on the provision Jason Kenney tucked into Bill C-38, the budget implementation bill, abolishing the immigrant visa applications of 86,000+ skilled workers, who had been waiting in the immigration queue for four to eight years. Justice Barnes did not, however, rule on the legality of the provision closing the FSW applications. A different judge will make that ruling sometime in mid- to late-2013.

its good but tht mid 2013 i m afraid they want to linger it ...prolonging the process so one gets fed up .just visualize what energies and spirit we all had 8 years back . simply we were young its unfair .with all backloggers although unfair is a small word what kenny and cic has done with us .one should sue these people of biggest fraud and lying with people all around the world
