What is your family situation?
Explain who is sponsoring whom, where each partner lives, and whether either person has filed an immigration application before. A clear account of the relationship and any earlier decisions helps Mehdi see the question you are bringing. It does not decide eligibility.
Which records may need careful review?
Gather the relationship history and the records that support it, along with prior applications and correspondence. If dates or details differ across documents, include the original records so the difference can be understood. No single checklist can say what will be enough for your file.
When does a prior refusal change the question?
Keep the complete refusal letter and what was submitted before it. The issue may concern the sponsorship record, the decision, or a separate immigration matter. Read the Canada-wide refusal guide if a refusal is part of your history; the spousal sponsorship guide owns the broader family process.
How do you start the family intake?
Choose the family category, describe your relationship and filing history, then request a 15-minute introductory call with Mehdi. You can edit the details before sending. A call request is not a booking or a promise that the application will succeed.
