These Applications are complex and detail-oriented. It is so easy to make mistakes which can lead to terrible results and refusals. The consequences of these mistakes can prevent your family members from being able to obtain legal status in Canada or even being ordered to leave Canada. I have a wealth of experience in this area and can help provide legal assistance for those who would like to sponsor their close family members (spouses, common law partners, conjugal partners, dependent children and parents and grandparents) to come to live in Canada as Permanent Residents. There is even an option for some of these Applications to be filed inland while you are living together in Canada.

Has your Sponsorship Application been rejected by the Visa Office? Have you been ordered deported from Canada?

I have acted for many individuals over the years helping them in their quest to find justice and quash these decisions.

Humanitarian and Compassionate Applications are unique and often difficult to succeed with. Applicants who do not qualify for permanent residence in any category may be able to successfully apply for permanent residence solely on “humanitarian and compassionate grounds.” This type of Application is referred to as an “H&C application” and an experienced, creative lawyer can make a significant difference in terms of helping you find success on these types of Applications.
