Just out of curiosity, how is he working. Was he able to get a work permit when he first applied, I assume as a refugee? I know an arrest order can follow a deportation order but I don't think it just happens. Usually it happens when someone comes before the police for some other reason, even...

I work in that field. It is not just a glorified admin, the position requires knowing legal procedures, compliance with various corporate and securities laws and other regulatory requirements, handling board meetings, drafting agreements I have known many lawyers for other countries who tried...

think the mention of $31,425 per year is clearly a typo. The way the calculation is described divided by 5 is very badly written also. The guides say $6,285 per year, usually multiplied by 5 for a 5 year period of possible care giving a total cost of $31,425. There is mention of the term not to...

I am not sure if attempting to get a new passport would trigger any action regarding removal or not but he needs to get his passport in order regardless in case he ends up facing removal. It sounds like he could try for H&C, to remain on behalf of the best interests of the child. Of course the...

Just a quick look at the website shows that whoever wrote the material is not very fluent in English. The profile and mission statement have many grammar mistakes they ask for things such as Educational Certificate’s and Experience’s I love this job listing `Message lady for Message SPA. 20.00...

Luck certainly is a factor and you had very bad luck to get caught so quickly. I know some people would say it was all your own fault for breaking the law but I understand it must feel very unfair when so many others do it and get away with it.

This is so true. You seriously didn`t know you were not allowed to work, even though your visa would have clearly said that. The fact you are obviously literate and intelligent enough to qualify for grad studies makes that really hard to believe so if I were you, I would stop claiming that. It...

True because they won`t just let someone die in their waiting room. It also continues to drain other programs. Many cases highlighted in the media have stateded openly that the person has claimed refugee status when they became sick and they almost always assure the readers that the person paid...

The changes in the system are good and long overdue. We offer threatened people the opportunity for asylum and we provide (and continue to provide) refugees with extended health care not offered to most Canadians. In the past, people didn`t object about the extra medical care because the...

My point was actually the same, that it depends on the nationality. The U.S. is going to treat someone with a passport from somewhere like North Korea or Iran differently than someone with a passport from Mexico or St. Vincent. Canada takes refugees from all of those places but I do think it is...

Did you follow through on the local FBI attache offices. No idea if you tried this or it works. Ottawa, Canada American Embassy: 1-613-238-5335 Toronto Suboffice American Consulate: 1-416-640-8650 Vancouver Suboffice American Consulate: 1-604-685-4311

You might get away with it but why take a risk when you can do it without any hassles or potential problms. In this case, a possible extra problem would be the U.S. visa. Refugee travel documents are issued to people in Canada with protected-person status, including Convention refugees and...

So you have now been given protected person status by Canada and you want to travel using the passport of the country you claimed were going to kill or torture you. You seriously think that is a good idea. You might get away with it but your country of origin might get a bit upset or Canada...

Did you check this out. It is a very helpful source and gives complete instructions.

This is the best advice you could give your friend. Although the immigration issue is a complication and probably a factor in the hostility and potential violence (he may blame her for the status and that it is her fault and not his that he is illegal), it is now a matter of domestic violence...

OK, did you try the other resources I mentioned. Canada is sympathetic to the situation Tibetans have and are giving them priority but that doesn`t mean every Tibetan gets a free pass and is able to jump to the front of the line. There are hundreds of millions of people who would like to come...

If you have status in Ireland, you will not be accepted here and would be deported back to your country of origin, not Ireland, very quickly. If you don`t, the first question you would be asked if you come to Canada and claim refugee status is why did you not apply as a refugee when you were in...

Welcome to the club! OHIP does not cover eye exams for anyone except young people, seniors and those with specific diseases that effect the eyes like diabetes. We can thank George Smitherman who was Ontario Minister of Health. He was short of money because he blew a billion $ on eHealth and...

Contact the Canadian High Commission in India or Canada Tibet Committee or Canadian Tibetan Cultural Centre. Tibetan refugees continue to be settled here from both Nepal and India. In 2011 Canada committed to a program of settling 1,000 Tibetan refugees currently in Arunachal Pradesh but I...
