Visitors visa- HELP!
Hi....Me again! Sorry for all the questions, but we get more answers here than anywhere else!
I live in BC, I have PR status. My partner ( Rory) is here on a visitors visa, been here since May 15th. In July we went down to the States for a week to visit family, returned July 28th. We were informed he could leave Canada to go to the States and re enter on a visitors visa, but the 6 months will not start again. So....he applied for an extension to the visitors visa so that we can continue living together and obtain common law status. He stated his date or original entry was May 15th, date of last entry was July 28th. The application was denied based on "Failed to provide proof of original entry". They state the date of entry was July, therefore say he can stay until January 28th, and can reapply before that time. Rory then emailed them and explained his date of last entry was July 28th, but the date of original entry was May 15th. Their reply "Once a decision is made on a visitors permit it cannot be appealed. You can submit a new application if you have new information which was not available when you first applied"! Our concern is when we reapply will they say that again proof of original entry was not given? Does this mean now that the date of original entry now becomes July? and for common law status, does that mean our year of living together did not start until July? When infact he has been living with me since May? :confused: Alex x |

Re: Visitors visa- HELP!
:D We took over facebook in this way too....thats how we reconnected after 19 years!!
However, I have to finalise a divorce and the chances of that being done and remarried before January are slim..... So back to the original question.....what date is the date of original entry? And will they accept that to extend? Invites to follow!!!!! |
