Judicial review of permit refusals dismissed; applicant bears onus to provide sufficient evidence.
The applicants sought judicial review of the refusal of their work and study permit applications.
The principal applicant's work permit was denied because the officer was not satisfied he would leave Canada, noting a lack of evidence regarding employment in the Philippines.
The applicant argued the officer should have sought out employment letters submitted for other applications (LMIA and CAQ).
The Court dismissed the applications, finding the onus was on the applicant to provide sufficient evidence and the officer was not required to consult other agencies regarding the applicant's willingness to return home.
