A newlywed Mississauga man could find himself forced apart from the woman he just married as he waits for his Canadian permanent residency application to be approved amid immigration processing backlogs.
Ahmed Emam, 31, was just married last month and has been planning a summer wedding celebration in Egypt, where he was born.And with his application still waiting to be green-lit, there's a chance he'll be forced to return to Egypt even if he cancels the celebration — unless he's approved to stay soon.
He's currently on a work permit set to expire in July and now nervously wonders if he will be separated from his wife Bassant as he awaits word on his application."I have been living here... I have a life, right? I have a social network," he said.
Emam says he and his MP — Michael Coteau, who represents the Don Valley East riding — have requested updates about his file, which have indicated that he is eligible for the program. "On the one hand, we hear in the news every day about labour market shortages," said Konanur. "On the other hand, we also hear the news about the backlog…people waiting years to get processed."
