Refusals and appeals for Canadian immigration applications

色狐入口

It can be devastating to learn that your temporary or permanent residency application to Canada has been refused. Fortunately, you may have recourse.

A Canadian immigration officer鈥檚 decision to refuse an application may be challenged if the decision was wrong in fact or in law, or it was unreasonable with regards to the facts at hand and the quality of the file presented to the officers.

All decisions taken by (IRCC) that affect an application can be presented to the Federal Court, which will first decide if the case merits a hearing or if it raises an important question of law. An example of this could be a or application that is refused despite substantial evidence that could favour its approval.

The refusal of an application for permanent residence can also be contested before the Immigration Appeal Division, in the case of refused sponsorships, for example. The refusal of an application for permanent residence can also be contested before the Federal Court,聽as would be the case for a refused skilled worker application.

If warranted in your particular situation, you may hire a Canadian immigration lawyer to help you with a reconsideration letter.

If the refusal was based on an error in fact or in law and not in accordance with the principles of procedural fairness, a lawyer can write to the program manager of the Canadian Visa Office in question to point out the errors and to request a reconsideration of the refusal.

If no response is received or a negative response is received, a lawyer can help you seek the appropriate legal proceedings if the case appears to be worth pursuing.

For applicants rejected by IRCC at the federal level, recourses are usually presented before the Immigration Appeal Division or the Federal Court.

For permanent immigration applications rejected by Quebec鈥檚 immigration department, MIFI, recourses are usually presented before the Tribunal administratif du Qu茅bec or the Superior Court of Quebec.
