Coast Rica: Hadayt Nazami and Family Behalf

coast rica: Montoya moved his family to Canada when he accepted a job as an environmental studies professor at York University, according to Metro News. But, when they applied for permanent residency in 2013, the Montoyas were told their son could be an undue burden to the country health system. They had promised news for me by the end of June but now are saying I will have to wait until fall, Felipe Montoya told Metro in an email from Coast Rica. The family appealed the decision and has been waiting for an update since late last year. They felt so much stress and frustration about this uncertainty, said Hadayt Nazami, a lawyer acting on the family behalf. They moved out of their Richmond Hill home two weeks ago.
