STUDY IN CANADA

Canada is a very popular destination for international students, due to its high quality and affordability of education, the opportunity to work while studying and the permanent residency pathways that are available to international students upon graduation.

Data from IRCC shows Canada welcomed a record 551,405 international students from 184 countries in 2022. In addition, at of the end of 2022, there were 807,750 international students holding valid study permits, another all-time high. In order to study in Canada, you must first be accepted to a Canadian school. Once you get your letter of acceptance, you then apply for your study permit. There are more than 1,500 Designated Learning Institutions in Canada that accept international students. After graduation, international students may be eligible to stay in Canada for up to three years (depending on the length of the study program) with a Post-Graduation Work Permit (PGWP).

In addition, Canadian education can put you at an advantage when applying for permanent residence, as many federal and provincial immigration programs value candidates with Canadian education and work experience.
There are many immigration options available to you if you are originally from Pakistan, India or Philippines and want to settle in Canada. It is recommended to consult with an experienced immigration consultant that will explain the programs available and guide you through the application process.

FEDERAL RULING: The Importance Of Avoiding Misrepresentation in Canadian Immigration Applications

What's misrepresentation in Canada immigration
Misrepresentation occurs when information is provided to Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada (IRCC) or to the Canada Border Services Agency (CBSA) that is inconsistent, false, inaccurate, or incomplete. It's a serious crime to lie, or to send false information or documents to Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada (IRCC).

Misrepresentation on immigration applications can have severe consequences, beyond your application being refused. According to Immigration, Refugee and Citizenship Canada (IRCC), in response to false documents or information, IRCC may:

• Forbid you from entering Canada for at least 5 years;

• Give you a permanent record of fraud;

• Take away your status as permanent resident or Canadian citizen;

• Have you charged with a crime; or
Remove you from Canada.

Immigration forms and applications can be complex. Even though applicants can be extremely careful and attempt to be truthful, they can still easily make innocent misrepresentations. Applicants may submit information that to the best of their knowledge is accurate and complete but turns out to be incorrect or incomplete. Thus innocence is not generally a defence to misrepresentation.

In order to avoid misrepresentation on your immigration applications, consult our agency; with our experience on Canada immigration process we will work with you to make sure the provided information and documentation is accurate and complete.

APPLYING FOR CANADIAN CITIZENSHIP IF YOU WERE BORN OUTSIDE OF CANADA

If you were born outside Canada and have at least one of your biological or legal parents at birth were a Canadian citizen, you may be eligible for Canadian citizenship. You may submit a “proof of Canadian citizenship” application to the Canadian government, which is also known as applying for a Canadian citizenship certificate. Along with the Canadian birth certificate, it is one of only two documents accepted by passport Canada as proof of Canadian citizenship.
Canada limits citizenship by descent to the first generation born outside Canada or to a Canadian parent. However, you are able to apply for a Canadian citizenship certificate at any time of your life and irrespective if your Canadian parent is alive or deceased.

WHO NEEDS PROOF OF CITIZENSHIP?

A Canadian citizenship certificate can be obtained by any Canadian citizen. However, the document is only really necessary for individuals born outside of Canada to at least one Canadian citizen parent and naturalized Canadians.

Naturalized Canadians are those who applied for citizenship, completed the test, and took the oath. These individuals will need a Canadian citizenship certificate, but they will have received this upon completion of their naturalization process.

Proof of citizenship allows you to enjoy all the benefits afforded to being a Canadian. This includes voting in federal elections, getting a social insurance number (SIN), access to universal health care, getting a driver’s license and holding one of the world’s most powerful passports.

How to apply for Canadian citizenship certificate
In order to apply for a Canadian citizenship certificate, you must download the application package on Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada’s (IRCC) website. The application fee is $75 CAD. IRCC requires evidence that at least of your legal or biological parent at birth was a Canadian citizen.

Accepted evidence includes:
• Your parent’s birth certificate
• Your parent’s Canadian citizenship card
• Your parent’s citizenship certificate

You can submit the application online on IRCC’s website. Once IRCC receives your application, you will receive an “acknowledgement of receipt” and your file will be reviewed and processed. You may check the processing status of your application online, as processing times may vary based on individual circumstances. IRCC may also request additional information or documents.

MOVE YOUR FAMILY NORTH ⬆️

On the 26th of May 2023, Sean Fraser, Minister of Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship, made an announcement about improvements to strengthen family class immigration in Canada.

The contemporary measures include:
• Speedy temporary resident visa (TRV) procession pattern for spousal applicants
• Latest and unwavering processing tools for spousal Temporary Resident Visa (TRV) to applicants
• A new open work permit for spousal and family class applicants
• Open work permit extensions for open work permit holders expiring between August 1st and the end of 2023

Fraser began the announcement by explaining that family members from visa required countries who have submitted family class permanent residency (PR) applications can apply for Temporary Resident Visas (TRV) to join their sponsor in Canada.
He said that far too many are refused on the basis that they are unlikely to return home, despite the fact that an overwhelming majority are approved for permanent residency when their application is finally processed.
Fraser continued by saying that IRCC has successfully eliminated the backlog of TRV applications for family members who already have a permanent residency application being processed. IRCC’s new approach towards spousal TRV applications has approved more than 98% of applications for spouses and their kids, so that they can be with their families while they await the processing of their PR applications.

Going forward, Fraser said this new approach to processing TRV applications will lead to processing times of within 30 days. Family members will be able to travel to Canada more quickly and be with their loved ones sooner.
IRCC is also launching a new initiative that will issue open work permits to spousal applicants and their dependent children who reside with their sponsor in Canada and have temporary resident status.
Spouses, partners and dependants are able to apply for and receive an open work permit as soon as they submit a complete permanent residence application under the spouse or common-law partner in Canada class (SPCLC) or other family class programs.

These open work permits were previously only allowed for the inland spousal program and is now being extended to those who are applying outside Canada.

Finally, beginning June 7th, open work permit holders whose current permit expires between August 1st and the end of 2023 can extend their permit for 18 months using a free facilitated process, which will impact about 25,000 people currently in Canada and are able to work. This will include spouses and dependents of most temporary workers, spouses of international students and permanent resident applicants and their spouses/dependents waiting for permanent residency to be finalized.

FAMILY CLASS SPONSORSHIP

Family class immigration is the second largest category under Canada’s Immigration Level’s Plan. In 2023, Canada hopes to welcome 106,500 newcomers under the family class category, with 78,000 under the spouses, partners and children category and 28,500 under the parents and grandparents category. By 2025, Canada aims to welcome 118,000 newcomers through family class immigration.

Family class sponsorship allows Canadian citizens and permanent residents to sponsor a person to join you in Canada and become a permanent resident.

To be eligible as a sponsor, you must:
• Be a Canadian citizen or permanent resident of Canada
• Be 18 years of age or older
• Not be in prison, bankrupt, under a removal order or charged with a serious offence
• Not have been sponsored as a spouse within the last 5 years.

Spouses, common law and conjugal partners, children, parents and grandparents may all be sponsored, provided they meet the required eligibility criteria.

MOVING TO CANADA? EVERYTHING YOU NEED TO KNOW ABOUT CANADA’S HEALTH CARE SYSTEM

Canada is an exciting country known for its multicultural society, breath-taking landscapes, and publicly-funded health care.
That's to say, moving to Canada can come with its fair share of challenges, such as navigating the country’s health care system, which can be daunting for many newcomers. To help you get to grips with how the system works, including how to apply for a health card and access urgent care, here’s the essential information you need:

• Unpacking Canada’s free health care system:

As a permanent resident or landed immigrant, you can apply to access publicly-funded Medicare health services. Through Medicare, basic medical services like doctor visits, hospital stays, and diagnostic tests are provided for free or at a fraction of the cost. However, because these services are primarily funded and delivered by each provincial government, the specifics of coverage and delivery may vary slightly from province to province. Therefore, you should check with the province of your intended residence, work, or study to determine available services.

• Health Card Application :

To gain access to Medicare services in Canada, you’ll first need to apply for a Canadian health card. Applying for a health card, or provincial health card is usually without a charge. The application process differs depending on the province, but all require supporting documents, including proof of residency and immigration status and a government-issued ID. It’s worth keeping in mind that some provinces may have a waiting period of up to three months before you can receive a free care.
Once your application is verified, you can use your Medicare card to access medical care covered by the government for free. You’ll need to present your Medicare card whenever you visit a doctor or hospital to confirm your eligibility.

• Hire or Apply for a family doctor for you and your loved ones:

Family doctors, or General Practitioners (GPs), provide essential primary health care services and serve as valuable guides through the Canadian health care system. They can help you understand your options for care, make informed decisions, and provide referrals to specialists when necessary. You can get a family doctor by registering with the provincial health care system, asking for recommendations from friends or colleagues, or using online resources such as the Canadian Association’s Doctor Finder tool.

• Urgent care in Canada:

How to use the Emergency hotline in Canada
Canada offers free emergency medical treatment regardless of immigration status, and you don’t need a health card. However, going to the nearest hospital in case of an emergency is recommended, as some walk-in clinics may charge fees if you’re not a resident of that province or territory. If you can’t get to a hospital, dialing 911 will connect you with police, ambulance, and fire services, no matter where you are in the country. The cost of ambulance services in Canada is usually partially covered by each province, with patients responsible for a lower co-pay amount

• Get Registered in a Private Health Insurance:

Private health insurance, held by about two-thirds of Canadians, can offer a wider range of services and benefits, shorter wait times, and a broader network of health care providers. Furthermore, it’s important to note that some provinces in Canada may only provide health coverage to their residents. This means you may not be covered if you require medical attention or have an accident outside your home region.
Although private health plans are often acquired as an employment benefit, it’s wise to be aware of their potential limitations and explore alternative coverage options.

• Register with an international plan from Cigna Healthcare:

An international health plan from Cigna Healthcare provides fast access to quality care whenever and wherever you need it – from 24/7 phone and online GP appointments and mental well-being support to hospital treatment, including cancer care. And because Cigna Healthcare understands that everyone’s needs are different, they offer a range of add-ons covering outpatient treatment, dental and vision care, and prescriptions to tailor your health plan so it’s right for you. Whether you’re moving to Canada to work or live, a Cigna Healthcare plan ensures you have everything you need to stay healthy and happy – without worrying about unpredictable medical expenses.

ARE YOU FACING DELAYS IN YOUR IMMIGRATION APPLICATION? HERE ARE SOME LEGAL STEPS YOU CAN TAKE!

A foreign national must submit their application to Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada (IRCC) on their website for all registration and application for work, study or immigrate to Canada. The IRCC has set up service standards that provide the usual processing time for various immigration applications. However, there can be delays to these processing standards, causing the processing time of the application to be much longer than IRCC’s service standard.

The Canada's immigration system often experiences a backlog problem. The backlog problem could be as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, staffing shortages, high demand, and aging technology. Meanwhile some personal application delays can be due to missing documentation or requirements like the background checks that take extra time.

What are the solution to such situation?

There are a few options if you are experiencing delays in your application.

The first thing an applicant should do is check their application status online through IRCCs website. It provides a processing times tool that is meant to accurately show the expected wait times. It is important to ensure that all documentation is complete and up to date, in order to avoid any unnecessary delays.

Once this is done, you may file a webform inquiry or call the IRCC customer center to see if they can provide you with a substantive response as to the reason for the delay in your application. If the inquiries to IRCC go unanswered or are unsatisfactory, you can try asking a local member of Parliament to file a status update request.
Never the less these procedures will give you an idea about if anything is wrong in your application, or if the IRCC officer has noted concerns or doubts about your application. It also provides an opportunity to submit additional evidence addressing those doubts.

If necessary, you can also hire a lawyer to submit a formal request letter via the IRCC webform. This letter will emphasize that the processing time has exceeded the average processing time for the sort of application you are applying for, the efforts you have made to follow up with IRCC, and how the delay has negatively impacted you.

When applying to work, study or immigrate to Canada, a foreign national must submit their application to Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada (IRCC). IRCC has service standards that provide the usual processing times for applications. However, there can be delays to these processing standards, causing the processing time of the application to be much longer than IRCC’s service standard.

Applying For An Order Of Mandamus

If the average processing time has passed and the other efforts and options described above are unsuccessful, then the last resort is to apply for an Order of Mandamus. The Federal Court will hear requests for these orders, which pressures IRCC to decide about the application.

It is recommended that you hire a lawyer to help you through this process. The threshold for an Order of Mandamus is high. Obtaining an Order will hinge on whether the applicant has exceeded the average processing time and is subject to unreasonable delays.

There are seven conditions that should be satisfied to warrant an Order:

• There must be a public legal duty to act (to process the application)
• The duty must be owed to the applicant
• There is a clear right to the performance of that duty, in particular that the applicant has satisfied all conditions giving rise to the duty and there was unreasonable delay
• No other adequate remedy is available to the applicant
• The order sought will be of some practical value or effect
• The Court finds no equitable bar to the relief sought
• On a balance of convenience, an order of mandamus should be issued

One example of a balance of convenience that is in favour of an applicant is that the applicant is unable to renew their driver’s license or health card unless they have a valid work permit or study permit.

Waiting to hear about your application can be a stressful process that takes time and money. It is important to stay informed about the status of your application, to be proactive in updating your file and correcting any errors and being patient.
