Appeal An Immigration Refusal
Immigration Refusal Appeals
Immigration Refusal Appeals refer to the process of challenging a decision made by the Canadian immigration authorities to deny an application for immigration to Canada. The process is a way to contest the refusal of an application and present additional evidence or arguments to support your case.
Immigration Appeal Division (IAD)
The Immigration Appeal Division (IAD) is a division of the Immigration and Refugee Board of Canada (IRB) that is responsible for hearing appeals of immigration-related decisions made by officers of the Canada Border Services Agency (CBSA) and Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada (IRCC). The IAD hears appeals from individuals who have had their immigration applications refused and believe that the decision was incorrect or unfair.
Sponsorship Appeals
A sponsorship appeal is when an individual who has had their application to sponsor a relative for immigration to Canada refused, challenges the decision through the IAD. The sponsor can appeal the decision if they believe that there were errors in the assessment of the sponsorship application or that the refusal was unjust.
Residency Obligation Appeals
A residency obligation appeal is when a permanent resident of Canada challenges a decision made by an immigration officer to revoke their permanent resident status due to failure to meet the residency obligation requirement. The residency obligation requires that permanent residents must reside in Canada for at least 730 days within a five-year period. If a permanent resident fails to meet this requirement, they may face revocation of their permanent resident status, which can be appealed through the IAD.
