Under the old law my wife and I applied for Landing papers and got them in Dec 1999.

We live in the US by then and we decided to land and come back to the US for six
months before moving definetivly to Canada.

Because we have a lot of family here in the US and Canada we decided to stay here and
decided to return the landing papers.

We always thought that we would apply again in the future and move definetivly to
Canada after saving more money and get more work experience.

Now with the new law we qualify with 80 points I like to know the opinion of the
experts of this site and see they think there is a possibility for our application to
be approved again.

Thans in advance to your comments

If you meet the new selection criteria, are not inadmissible and officer will have no
doubts about your intentions this time then you have a very good chance for approval,
unless there are some other factors which may convince processing officer that
regardless of the number of points your chances for successful establishment in
Canada are next to none. Unfortunately Canadian immigration law is not saying that
every applicant passing the 80 points mark and not inadmissible must be granted
immigration visa - law requires applicant to meet certain requirements before visa
can be granted, but this as far as the law goes.

Oops! Sorry.

I was wrong and I must admit my mistake here.

New Regulations in Part 3 (Procedures) Division 1 (Visa Issuance) clearly state the
following:

-----------------------------------------------------------------------
Issuance 13. (1) An officer shall issue a permanent resident visa to a foreign
national if, following an examination, it is established that they

(a) have applied in accordance with these Regulations for a permanent resident visa
as a member of a class referred to in subsection (2);

(b) are coming to Canada to establish permanent residence;

(c) are a member of that class; and

(d) meet the selection criteria applicable to that class.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------

So, if the above won't be changed in the final version of Regulations then visas
should be issued to all applicants who meet the criteria set for the class they
applied under and are not inadmissible.
