Hi there,
I was wondering if you could help me figure out the next steps with regards to the current status of my mother in Canada:
She has been here for 7 years on a visitor visa (she came in 2010).
October 2011 - applied for her parent sponsorship. Final documents (and medical results) were sent to the immigration office on April 2017, awaiting final response from immigration)
January 3, 2017 - visa extension has expired.
January 19, 2017 - applied for her restoration of status. We were late this year because we moved houses in September and it took us longer to settle in the new house.
March 2017 - her restoration of status was refused because of an expired passport even though we told the visa officer that her passport is being renewed. We received her new passport in May 2017.
I was trying to apply for restoration of her status online this week and was told that she will not be able to restore her status because it has passed the 90 day limit and that she has to leave Canada.
What should I do in this case? Can I still apply for restoration citing the circumstances that we were in?
Thank you! Appreciate your time and advise!
