Success: Spousal Open Work Permit

Our client came to us with a messy situation. He hired a shady Consultant who messed up his case. The Consultant sent documents to immigration without telling our client. The Consultant did not give him copies of the documents so our client has, to this day, no idea what information the Consultant gave to IRCC. This is, of course, terrible practice and we recommended that our client file a complaint against the Consultant.

Our client is in Dubai, UAE. As you may know, the laws in UAE are not strong in this type of situation and there is little that our client could do against the Consultant. Our client was afraid to go to the police. He is not a citizen of UAE. He only has worker status.

We agreed to do our best to help our client and he let him know that he had a very difficult case. We got a copy of his immigration file and we learned that the Consultant actually filed multiple applications on his behalf. He had no idea. He had multiple IRCC refusals on his file. He had no idea. The Consultant seriously messed up his situation.

We worked with this client for a few months to get his immigration file, gather data and make sure we put together strong supporting documentation.

As you can see from the image, our client’s application was APPROVED. He was, of course, ecstatic and overjoyed that he was granted worker status in Canada.

We love positive decisions and we love to celebrate. I can tell you that there is laughter at CIL almost every day. We stop deportations. We win appeals. We help our clients get PR status – quickly. We win judicial reviews at Federal Court. We are extremely fortunate that we have many things to celebrate.

When we told our client, he said he was not surprised by the approval. He said:

I know I had a tough case but you guys worked so hard for me. I knew we would win.

Our philosophy: hope for the best and plan for the worst. We never expect to get easy approvals. We never expect that we will not have to work hard on behalf of every client. Thankfully, the methods and systems at CIL have proven to be a model for successful results!
