Licensed Canadian immigration guidance
Most refused family sponsorship applications can be appealed to the Immigration Appeal Division (IAD), an independent tribunal that reviews the case afresh — including new evidence not seen by the original decision-maker.
A decade of files, decisions and outcomes across every major Canadian pathway.
