Humanitarian and Compassionate Applications – When all else fails?

With the opportunities of obtaining permanent residence, becoming fewer and fewer, more people are starting to realize that their dream of remaining in Canada is at an end. For some people, there may be humanitarian and compassionate reasons why Canada should grant them permanent residence notwithstanding the fact they are in eligible for other permanent resident programs. In this Live stream, Mark Holthe is joined by Ronalee Carey to discuss everything you need to know about humanitarian and compassionate applications so that you can decide if this is something right for you.

Great session. Very informative as usual.

You mentioned the H&C application has to be in conjunction with an economic immigration application. I'm a bit confused (maybe I missed it, sorry if i did). If I moved to Canada as a student when I was 15 for school, studied here and got a PGWP but couldn't make enough points or eligible work experience for a PR through express entry (due to recent changes since covid), can I still apply for H&C without getting an express entry invitation? My case would be that I lived here almost half my life and integrated well into the society and made Canada sort of my home. Also that I was born as an immigrant(no citizenship in birthplace) in a gulf country and moved to Canada from there, so never actually lived in my country of citizenship (3rd world country) and i'd face massive hardship from moving there.

I will never recommend this Ronalee Carey Law service. Paying $400 for a 45-minute consultation is a waste of time. The consultant only gathers information and, in the end, instead of providing advice on how to address weaknesses such as Canadian ties, they simply send back the same information and an official immigration website link. This consultant is a money grabber and not recommended to anyone.
