When a Canadian citizen or a permanent resident of Canada files a Sponsorship application <\/b>of a family member (a spouse, a common-law spouse, etc.), at the same time and within the same file, the family member ( the foreign citizen) files an application for permanent residence in Canada within the family category.<\/p>

In some cases the immigration agents may refuse the application for permanent residence of the sponsored family member (the foreign citizen). The reasons of refusal may be different, but the most frequent reason of refusal in cases of sponsoring a spouse or a common law spouse is that to the opinion of the immigration agent the relationship is not authentic, in other words that marriage was contracted or the common law relationship alleged for the main purpose of obtaining admission to Canada as an immigrant and not with the genuine purpose of having a real marital life.<\/p>

When the immigration agents examine the sponsorship application, they decide on a case by case basis if an interview is necessary in order to verify the authenticity of the relationship, in case of a doubt an interview is scheduled with the sponsored person, or with both spouses, especially if both spouses are living in Canada. The questions during the interview are about the circumstances in which the spouses met, about the visits and common life of the spouses, about their communications, about their personal tastes, about financial support, etc. Often, the sponsored person or the sponsor are so stressed and not used to be questioned, that they do not understand well the questions, that they do not provide all the relevant information in order to demonstrate the authenticity of the relationship, and the immigration agent ultimately makes a decision of refusal.<\/p>

In order to avoid errors or injustices occurring, the Immigration and Refugee Protection Act of Canada allows the sponsor (Canadian citizen or permanent resident of Canada) to file an appeal of the decision of refusal to the Immigration Appeal Division<\/a> (IAD) of the Immigration and Refugee Board of Canada (IRBC). The notice of appeal has to be filed within thirty (30) days<\/b> from the date on which the decision of refusal was received by the sponsor.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
