Appeals & Refusals

Representation and solutions if a Canadian visa, permit, or PR application has been refused.

Who This Is For

This service is for anyone whose Canadian visa, permit, or permanent residency application was refused and who wants to understand their options. Common situations include:

  • Visitor, study, or work permit refusals
  • Express Entry or PNP application refusals
  • Sponsorship application refusals
  • Refusals citing insufficient ties to home country or funds
  • Procedural fairness letters requiring a response

Documents You'll Typically Need

Requirements depend on the refusal type and available recourse, but generally include:

  • Copy of the refusal letter
  • Original application and all submitted documents
  • Any procedural fairness letter received
  • New or additional evidence addressing the refusal reasons
  • Legal representation authorization, if applicable

How Crownway Helps

We review your refusal letter to understand exactly why the application was denied, assess whether an appeal, reconsideration, or fresh application is the stronger path, and help you build a response that directly addresses the officer's concerns.
