Dani, I'm so sorry to hear you and your husband have been refused. It doesn't make sense. As for the age factor...that doesn't make a difference. But like Habibti mentioned..maybe such a quick marriage made them red flag. BUT at the same time you have been there for 1 YEAR!!! What does it take to get it through their heads that you two are genuine??!! All my thoughts and prayers are with you and your husband. APPEAL THIS CRAZY DECISION!!!!

I became muslim while marrying my husband- why? I love him very much! before converting to Muslim, I was Catholic.

my daughter is with my mother in Saskatoon, she is in good hand with her. my husband's family accept the fact that I have a daughter from previous relationship, it didn't faze them at all!

Age is just numbers, love does matter and accept the person who is than age numbers!? my husband and I both are educated and smart. we both felt that it doesn't really matter and love each other.

It seems that CDN embassy in Rabat is like nazi enjoying refusing spouses visa and discriminate them, don't understand their stories and don't care.
So, for one year you were away from your daughter?

You mentioned you are deaf... how do you communicate with your husband?

Habibti,

that's correct. I do keep in touch with her via Skype and send her gifts and pictures. my husband send gifts to her too and always ask my mom how she is doing everyday.

well, my husband and I use American sign language that I use, and lip reading( I have no problem understanding him). We also use African body gestures. he understand me pretty well if I talk to him with voice. there is obviously no communication barrier between us. It came naturally
I see... how old is your little one?

After you met him during your vacation, did you return to Canada and came back to Morocco to marry him OR you remained there for the wedding and live with him?

I see you have lots of obstacles to overwhelm and they will have to be addressed at the hearing. I strongly recommend an immigration lawyer.

Did you order the notes? It was the first thing to do! How can you fight your case if you don't have the notes to counterattack the reasons for refusal?

If I am not mistaken, the CAIPS notes have been replaced with the GCSM notes.

Then, all you have to do is to wait for the notes and start writing your appeal book to counterattack the arguments or reasons given by the VO. As I said before, try to enjoy your time with your little girl. She must be your priority. I always believe that a child must come FIRST, before a spouse. Set little goals so you can focus on these rather than just worrying. You will have a sense of accomplishment and feel good about yourself. Once in front of the ministry's counsel, you will radiate these good feelings.

Did you find a good immigration consultant or lawyer to help you with your case?

Did you have a chance to read all the posts for this thread:
