Identify the decision and route
Sponsorship refusals, residency obligation decisions and removal orders can raise different appeal questions. Not every decision carries an appeal right.
Canada-wide immigration advice
Canadian immigration appeals
Find out which appeal or review route needs assessment before deciding how to respond.
Clear advice and practical next steps
Start with your circumstances.
Build from the record
Bring the decision and the evidence already submitted. We discuss the history and issues relevant to the available route.
Prepare for the next stage
If the firm accepts further work, the retainer identifies the preparation and representation covered. A consultation alone does not include filing an appeal.
Make the first conversation useful.
- The decision, envelope or delivery record and date received
- The original application and supporting documents
- Any appeal forms, notices or hearing information
- Current immigration status and travel history
- Previous representative correspondence
Use the office’s secure sharing instructions for sensitive records. Do not send identity or financial documents through a general enquiry.

Before you start.
Is an appeal the same as judicial review?
No. They involve different decision-makers and procedures. The correct route depends on the decision and any available statutory right.
Can I wait until my booked appointment to mention a deadline?
Contact our office promptly. A booking does not extend a deadline or confirm the office has accepted your case.
