Monday's Assignment

What's your family like? Immigrants often travel as families or try to reunify their families at a later time. What is the process for sponsoring family members to Canada? We start on the weekly theme of family relationships with the following flowchart:

Here are your tasks:

1. CLB 5 R Interpret a simple chart to explain a familiar government process (such as how a law is passed). Write 8 or more sentences about how the above process works.
1. Try to use passive verbs in the present tense, e.g. If your application is accepted, you do not need to reapply, or Next, the appeal is considered by the CIC.
2. Check your sentences with a partner before posting.
2. Compare this process with that in your country of origin. Add 2 - 3 sentences. What are some major differences?

Here's this afternoon's tasks:

1. Role play: Roles within the Family
2. Google to identify the historical background of “the prodigal son,” “scapegoat,” and “lion’s den.”
3. Exchange notes with at least 2 classmates.

Dear Ann,
The last email, you told me your application to sponsor your husband to Canada was refused by CIC. I'm sorry to hear that and hope you feel better soon.

I cheeked the website of IRB and found the Sponsorship Appeal Process. First at all, you should clarify the issues in  your application. Second, your appeal with the IRB should be filed within 30 days.  According to the IRB tribunal process, a hearing appeal will be holding involving the appellant and Minister's counsel. Your appeal is considered by IAD member. Or it may be sent to ADR.  If your appeal is allowed, CIC will resume processing your sponsorship application and grant a permanent resident visa. However, CIC may be denies on other grounds. You may apply to the Federal Court of Canada for review of the IRB's decision.
Please let me know If you have any question or concern.
Best Regards
