If the information is wrong, then that insinuation is actually pretty serious. As I suggested, the MP would know that, and, if there is legitimate proof to the contrary, the MP can sort that out. If they have proof, and the OP does not have proof to the contrary, that's a different story. Understood it's their job, but crossing the line is crossing the line. Sounds like they did to me.

As I said, MP can sort it out. I would be requesting GCMS notes today as well.

I agree with Profiler. Contact your MP. You have nothing to lose by contacting MP and making MP aware of what transpired.

What is an mp and how do I contact them and what do I say I have no idea I'm sorry! We received an empty refusal letter void of names, reasons, application number etc ... so distraught
 
MP: Member of parliament
using your postal code, you can find the one in your area: http://www.parl.gc.ca/Default.aspx?Language=E
Then click on the name of your MP to get contact info.

You can email or call. Take an appointment asap.

Bring the refusal letter and all documentation support. Be very honest with your MP, explain in details everything regarding your application. Your MP might be able to reopen your application. For sure, you get absolutely nothing to lose by contacting your MP.

I wish you the best

Good luck.
Try to lie as little as possible, and don't lose your calm.
Again, good luck

Once you involve the MP, save your money. The MPs office has lawyers that work for free usually...

So I should cancel my conciliation until after speaking to my mp next Tuesday?

The MP likely can have the case re-opened and re-examined. They have powers the few mortals understand. Let's just say, you'll want to listen closely to them, and be honest. They would have much more pull and "luck" than a consultant would. Hands down.

Thank you so much for ur encouraging words. I will Cancel my conciliation until after I talk to my mp. I swear I'm beyond appreciative to all of you who have given advice and helped me know my rights and options.

My opinion here, for what it's worth is you might want to reach out to your MP's office with regard to this file. If they have decided to refuse (which in all honesty, it sounds like they probably have), you might want their office involved anyway. If it was me personally, I would take what the officer said as a personal attack, and I would make the MP very aware that I don't appreciate the insinuation from a government official that I was committing fraud.

I have my appointment next week with my mp, it's the earliest I could get in. And believe me I will make it very very clear that the insinuation that I'm committing fraud from a government official is completely wrong and absolutely unacceptable thank you very much for this advice

You bet... best of luck!
 
You sponsored someone a few years back, you are 12 years older than your husband, he is from a country known for the "young man - older woman" marriage fraud scenario, you met online, you got engaged on the first visit, married on the second visit and otherwise had only a long-distance relationship.

Based on that information alone, I am not at all surprised that the VO suspected an MOC.

Without trying to rub salt into a wound you are right. The mp does not have any special authority to reopen the case. Telling people that is not correct and misleading. The mp can only ask that they are sure they followed all procedures.
They are best to concentrate on preparing an appeal.
