Heron Law 成功案例:一封 Mandamus 要求函如何帮助客户获得永久居民身份
在我们向 IRCC 提交了一封要求函(Demand Letter)后,客户的永久居民(PR)申请得以最终处理。信中详细说明了客户自提交申请以来所采取的跟进措施,以及因处理延误而遭受的不公。随后,我们向联邦法院提交了强制令(Mandamus)申请。在提交强制令申请后不久,客户便收到了 IRCC 的信函,邀请其在在线门户网站确认永久居民身份。

Our client’s PR application was finalized after we sent IRCC a demand letter highlighting the steps the client had taken to follow-up with their application since submission and the prejudice they had suffered due to the delay. This letter was followed by an application to the Federal Court for a mandamus order. Shortly after filing the mandamus application, the client received a letter inviting them to confirm their PR status on the online portal.

One of our clients experienced significant delays due to past driving convictions that may have led to criminal inadmissibility. After a year of no updates, the client consulted with Laura Schemitsch. She identified the potential issue of criminal inadmissibility and prepared a criminal rehabilitation application. Following an Access to Information Request, it was confirmed that the work permit application had been transferred to a criminal assessment unit. In October 2023, Heron Law Offices submitted a detailed rehabilitation application, and it was approved one year later, allowing the client to reunite with their spouse in Canada.
Our lawyer, Laura Schemitsch, successfully assisted a client in overturning a study permit extension refusal and restoring their student status in Canada. The client initially applied for an extension to complete their final term but missed an IRCC deadline due to technical issues with the portal. Although they submitted the required proof of payment before a decision was made, their application was refused. Heron Law Offices submitted a reconsideration request, arguing that IRCC made a clerical error, and also applied for status restoration. Both were approved, allowing the client to finish their studies in Canada.
