Inadmissibility

You might be considered inadmissible for varying reasons.
Expats may be deemed inadmissible by the concerned authorities in Canada. Subsequently, they might be denied entry to the country, or the decision may impact the PR application.

Inadmissibility to Canada

It would be disheartening when the Canadian immigration authorities, like the IRCC, considered you inadmissible to the country. Your entry may be denied, or your PR application may be rejected if you are suspected of being involved in unlawful activities, have some specific medical conditions, or are found to have submitted a misrepresentation.

The two types of inadmissibility to Canada are:

Denying Entry: 

The foreigner applying for immigration to Canada may be denied entry. Criminal background, medical conditions, security risk if the person immigrates, and misrepresentation are the common reasons for this inadmissibility to Canada.

Inadmissibility on PR Application: 

The PR applications of ex-pats in Canada may be rejected due to criminal, medical, or misrepresentation issues. Failure by the individual to maintain the residency obligation can also land you in trouble.

Reasons for Inadmissibility to Canada

The common reasons for inadmissibility to Canada are:

• Criminal inadmissibility
• Medical inadmissibility
• Misrepresentation
• Residency obligation
• Organized crime or any links to it
• Person who is a security threat to Canada
• Human rights violations

How to Overcome Inadmissibility to Canada

A capable Canadian immigration lawyer with expertise in these matters might be able to help you. The Canadian immigration lawyer will study the scenario, suggest you the way out, and file the necessary request accordingly.

Criminal Inadmissibility:

 In the case of a deemed rehabilitation in which more than ten years have passed, and the applicant has committed a non-serious crime or a criminal rehabilitation case in which more than five years have passed, the case can be resolved by submitting the necessary requests. If the applicant succeeds in justifying his or her position, he or she will be granted a temporary waiver (TRP). The ex-pat can obtain a visitor visa, study permit, or work permit in Canada accordingly.

Medical Inadmissibility: 

A Procedural Fairness Letter (PFL) is the key here. The PFL is issued by IRCC after a medical exam. A response from the applicant substantiating the conditions is necessary for overcoming the medical inadmissibility. PFL is a basic necessity, and no action can be taken before the receipt of PFL.

Misrepresentation: 

The applicant challenges the misrepresentation's inadmissibility in Canada. A strong response to the PFL can be made in this regard. Canadian applicants can seek judicial review within 15 days of inadmissibility. Applicants from outside Canada have 60 days to file a judicial review.    

Medical Inadmissibility issued on TRV Visitor Visa/Super Visa: 

The applicant can re-apply with the help of an expert Canadian immigration lawyer. The subsequent actions when medical inadmissibility is issued on a TRV or super visa will depend on the scenario.
