Removal Order Appeal

Did IRCC Say “No”? That Is Not The Final Verdict.

Receiving a refusal letter or a removal order is devastating, but it is often just the beginning of the legal process. Immigration officers make mistakes. They ignore evidence, apply the wrong laws, or rely on flawed AI tools like “Chinook.”

At Cambria Law, we specialize in Immigration Litigation. We don’t just accept IRCC’s decision; we challenge it. Whether you need to appeal to the Immigration Appeal Division (IAD) or file for Judicial Review at the Federal Court, we have the experience to fight for your status.

1. Judicial Review (Federal Court)

For: Refused Study Permits, Work Permits, Visitor Visas, and H&C Applications.

If your application was refused because the officer “was not satisfied you would leave Canada” or ignored your documents, we can take the matter to the Federal Court of Canada.

• The Process: We file a “Leave and Application for Judicial Review.”

• The Goal: We prove the officer’s decision was “unreasonable” or procedurally unfair.

• The Result: If successful, the Court orders IRCC to re-open your file and have it decided by a different officer.

  • Warning: You have strictly 15 days (inside Canada) or 60 days (outside Canada) to file.

2. Spousal Sponsorship Appeals (IAD)

For: Refused Spousal or Family Class Applications.

If IRCC believes your marriage is “not genuine,” you have the right to appeal to the Immigration Appeal Division (IAD). This is a full De Novo hearing where you can testify.

• How We Help: We prepare you for cross-examination, gather new evidence of your relationship, and aggressively argue your case before the Member.

3. Removal Order Appeals

For: Permanent Residents facing deportation.

If you have received a Departure, Exclusion, or Deportation Order due to:

• Criminality (DUI, Assault, Fraud)

• Misrepresentation (Fake documents, lying on forms)

• Residency Obligations (Not spending enough days in Canada)

You may have a right to appeal. We fight to stay the removal order by proving “Humanitarian & Compassionate” factors—showing that your removal would cause excessive hardship to your family in Canada.

4. Writ of Mandamus (For Unreasonable Delays)

For: Applications stuck in “Background Checks” for years.

Is your citizenship or PR application stuck in a security screening for 2+ years? We file a Writ of Mandamus in Federal Court to force IRCC to make a decision. We don’t ask nicely; we legally compel them to do their job.

Why Choose Cambria Law for Litigation?

• We Analyze the “GCMS Notes”: We don’t guess why you were refused. We order the Global Case Management System notes to see exactly what the officer wrote.

• We Are Realistic: Litigation is expensive and complex. If your case is weak, we will tell you to re-apply. If it’s strong, we fight.

• Regulated & Experienced: Represented by Harkiran Singh Sidhu, RCIC, with a track record of overturning complex refusals.

Don’t Let a Refusal Define Your Future.

The clock is ticking on your appeal deadlines. Do not wait until the last day to hire counsel.
