Family sponsorships are a popular pathway to immigrate to Canada. Despite current delays in processing by IRCC, Canada remains committed to reuniting families and prioritizing these cases.
What to Do If Sponsorship Application Is Refused
If your family member’s application for permanent residence is refused, you may appeal to the Immigration Appeal Division (IAD) of the Immigration and Refugee Board of Canada.
Common Reasons for Refusal
One frequent reason for refusal is inadmissibility, which prohibits a person from entering Canada. There are exceptions, however, that may affect your appeal.
When You Cannot Appeal
You cannot appeal if the refusal is due to:
- Serious criminality
- Organized crime
- Security grounds
- Violations of human or international rights
- Misrepresentation (except for spouses, common-law partners, and their dependent children)
Health and Social Services Grounds
Sponsored family members and their dependent children cannot be found inadmissible solely due to potential excessive demand on health or social services.
