Re: Spousal sponsorship I need advice for inland application
Hi there,
I am being sponsored by my wife under in Canada class act spousal and common law application, our first stage of approval has come through now the CIC is asking me to provide them with a passport from my country of origin, so that they continue processing of my application, my former status was a refugee claimant, and I never possessed a valid Iranian passport (which is where i'm from) so I wrote a letter to CIC explained to them that since Iran doesn't have diplomats or an embassy in Canada anymore, and my former status was a refugee I am unable to get a passport from my country of origin, after 7 months they sent me the same letter again asking me to provide them with a passport, as if I had sent that letter to now body!!!!!!!!!!!!!! anyways I have contacted the Iranian office in Washington and asked them if I could get an Iranian passport and they said to me NO, I asked them to provide me with e written statement as to why not or just saying that they reject my request, so I can show the Immigration Canada, they said they will never under any circumstances issue such a letter especially if it is for Canadian official use, so I called the CIC again and told them that, and they said apply for a Canadian travel document, I did that and passport Canada rejected my application saying that I don't have a permanent status in Canada and I must have a permanent status in Canada so I can get a travel document, I told them that this document is request by immigration Canada, they said; it is not our problem, ........ so I am totally stuck in this middle just dangling in the air not knowing what to do, on one hand immigration Canada won't continue the processing of my application unless I have a passport or a travel document on the other hand passport Canada doesn't give me a travel document saying I have to have an immigration landing first, and there just is no WAY for me to get an Iranian passport, I'm really frazzled I don't know what to do I mean I came to Canada in 2007 and got married in 2011 but still I am without a strait answer, any advice??? what do you think I should do.....
just so you know I have tried explaining the situation to the immigration a million times ( didn't work)
explaining to passport Canada 1000 times (it didn't work)
anything else I can do?? has anyone ever had a similar situation and if so what did you guys do? please help me!
apparently writing letters don't work any other suggestion?
