Visitor status extension for GF refused, does it affect any future visits for her?

[Ed1099]

Hello everyone, I have an important question that has been worrying me for a while. My gf was visiting me in Canada for 6 months starting December 2019 and we decided to apply to extend her visitor status for another 6 months on April 2020. We got word from them 2 weeks ago that she was refused so she left as soon as possible which was 2 weeks from when we found out that she couldn't stay (she had to get a ticket and prepare for the trip back) She originally was supposed to leave on late May 2020 but since we applied for a visitor extension she stayed an extra 2 months while waiting for her application to be processed. From what I understand during those 2 months, she was under implied status so she could stay in Canada while waiting for the news.

We plan on seeing eachother again so she wants to visit me in Canada again (She is Polish so she doesn't need a visa to visit), my question is: will this situation affect her chances of being allowed entry as a visitor in Canada the next time she visits me?

Thank you

It shouldn't be an issue since she left so quickly after receiving the refusal.

We decided to plan a visit for the month of January 2021, so around 5-6 months until she visits me again, would the CBSA ask her about her refused visitor extension or something like that?

Do you mind me asking what you said was your reasoning was for asking for an extension initially? What did they say was reason for denial?

We asked for a 6 month extension with the reasoning being that we could qualify for common law sponsorship. For the reason, they only said that they are not convinced that she will leave.

I'm at the same place as your gf... I'm doing my extension also
There's no place in the visitor extension that you could put something that states you'd come back with the reason of common law sponsorship in mind... how could they say that they are not convinced she will leave?

may i know why you didnt use travel restrictions/difficulties or C-19 as an excuse

Assume because there weren’t huge issue with covid in Poland or he same as Canada and flights were available.

As soon as possible but usually within the month is tolerated.
