At Doorstep Immigration, we understand the emotional and legal complexities involved when a spousal sponsorship application is refused. As Surrey, British Columbia’s premier immigration consultants, we specialize in providing expert guidance and representation for individuals seeking to appeal a spousal sponsorship refusal in Canada. Our goal is to help you navigate this challenging process with confidence, ensuring that you have the best possible chance of being reunited with your loved one.
A spousal sponsorship application may be refused for a variety of reasons, including insufficient evidence of the relationship’s genuineness, missing documentation, or concerns about the sponsor’s eligibility. When an application is refused, it can be devastating for couples who have invested time, effort, and emotions into the process.
However, a refusal does not have to be the end of the road. In many cases, the decision can be appealed to the Immigration Appeal Division (IAD) of the Immigration and Refugee Board of Canada (IRB). The appeal process allows you to present additional evidence, clarify misunderstandings, and argue for the approval of your spousal sponsorship application.

The appeal process for spousal sponsorship cases involves several key steps, each of which plays a crucial role in the outcome of your case. At Doorstep Immigration, we guide you through each phase, providing expert representation and support.
Filing the Notice of Appeal: If your spousal sponsorship application has been refused, you have 30 days from the date of the refusal letter to file a Notice of Appeal with the Immigration Appeal Division (IAD). Our team assists you in preparing and filing this document, ensuring that it is completed accurately and submitted on time.
Case Preparation and Evidence Gathering: After filing the Notice of Appeal, we work closely with you to gather additional evidence that supports the genuineness of your relationship and addresses the concerns raised in the refusal decision. This may include documents, affidavits, and witness statements that provide a clearer picture of your relationship.
Appeal Hearing: The appeal hearing is a critical stage in the process where you have the opportunity to present your case before a member of the IAD. During the hearing, the member will review the evidence, hear testimony from witnesses, and consider legal arguments. Our team represents you at the hearing, presenting a strong case on your behalf and addressing any questions or concerns raised by the member.
Decision on the Appeal: After the hearing, the IAD member will issue a decision on your appeal. If the appeal is successful, your spousal sponsorship application will be approved, and your partner will be allowed to come to Canada. If the appeal is denied, further legal options may be available, and we will discuss these with you.
While our team will handle the legal aspects of your appeal, there are several steps you can take to strengthen your case:
Maintain Communication: Continue to maintain regular communication with your spouse, documenting your conversations and interactions. This can help demonstrate the ongoing nature of your relationship.
Provide Detailed Evidence: Gather and organize evidence that supports the genuineness of your relationship. This may include photographs, travel records, joint financial documents, and letters from family and friends who can attest to your relationship.
Be Honest and Transparent: It’s important to be honest and transparent throughout the appeal process. Any discrepancies or inconsistencies in your case can negatively impact the outcome.
Stay Informed: Keep yourself informed about the appeal process and your rights. Understanding what to expect can help you better prepare for each stage of the appeal.
