We just had CBSA come to our door March 1. 2018. We had the meeting and was insued an exclusion order.Hubby is allowed to stay for now and we were told to get our app in ASAP. It was ready , we were just waiting on police certificates. Which is ironically how we got caught. Stupid me thought we needed Canada Police report so husband did his fingerprinting to be sent to RCMP. Well..they were compared with immigration prints and that was that. It was afterwards I noticed we didnt even need to do the canada check. The same thing would have happened eventually when CIC did it but atleast at that point the app would have been in a almost AIP if not already
Glad things are working out.
