Justice Yves: Tribunal Decision and Lifetime Responsibilities

justice yves: The birth of a child does not definitely prove that a marriage is genuine, according to Guelph Mercury. Each case will turn on its own facts, although there is much to be said for the presumption that the parties to a fraudulent marriage are unlikely to risk the lifetime responsibilities associated with raising a child,' wrote Justice Yves de Montigny in rejecting the second tribunal decision in 2014. Since 2008, Saranjit Kaur Sandhu has made three failed attempts to bring her spouse, Kulwinder Singh Sangha, to Canada from India twice the Federal Court of Canada overturned the negative decision and sent the case back to the immigration appeal tribunal for reconsideration. T here is no evidence that having a child was a ploy to enhance the applicant's husband's chances of obtaining permanent residence in Canada. The focus of the past decisions has been the conclusion that the child of the marriage was conceived to bolster the relationship for immigration purposes, wrote tribunal adjudicator Elena Rose in the latest rejection of the couple's sponsorship appeal. Sandhu's appeal has recently been rejected by the tribunal for the third time and she is back before the Federal Court for another intervention. (www.immigrantscanada.com). As reported in the news.
