Default YES!!!! Visa Approval despite excessive demand due to Autistic Spectrum Disorder

We were totally shocked to get a phone message from our visa officer today informing us that they will issue our visa. They had initially told us that they had deemed our sons Aspergers would put an excessive demand on Canadian Social Services. (see our earlier posts) We were given an opportunity to submit a plan to negate this, which we did. To be honest we really were beginning to give up hope after over three and a half years. But now we will be moving in a month, which isn't long to get everything sorted.

Wow!! Congratulations, and so glad they have listened to reason. Good luck with the move and I hope all works out for you - enjoy Canada.

This is great for me to know as I will shortly be putting in a PR app and had a bad diagnosis a couple of years ago which has all been sorted, but will still be a bit of an issue. So good to know it worked out for you.

Congrats on your success. It might help others if you give some info about the plan you submitted that obviously led to a favourable result.

Terrific news and as Jim H said above, a little contribution to the WIKI, or at least on this post, on how you tackled the problem, may well help others. We can think of at least one family that would benefit from a little steer on this.

Kind regards,

Eamonn & Janet.

Thanks all,

sorry, we haven't had the opportunity to use happy smilies before today.

We are still numb, but suddenly busy organizing flights etc. We are going to post details of the plan we had to put forward in the next few days.
