Conviction affect on my Application

[adem ba]

Good evening, I ve been convicted for Fraud in an aggravated case, which ended up with 6 Months on Probation. This did happen 14 years ago, when I was 23 years old. Now I work as an Attorney. My question is, is this conviction an aggravated case as well in Canada, because the damage was about 700 Euros and accordingly to the canadian ministery of justice, an aggravated case only appears when the damage is more than 5000 Dollars. My register is clean since 10 years, so do I have any chance to immigrate to canada? I also speak 8 languages, which makes me more qualified.


Thanks so lot !

Thanks so lot !

Yes, you can still migrate to Canada. You will need to declare this conviction in your application when you apply to come to Canada.

Your age will work against you in qualifying since you'll lose points. Have a look at the Express Entry program. You want to score 470+ to have a good chance.

I'm not sure any of the PNP programs are going to be an option for you given your occupation.

If you are fluent in French and English, and your law degree is assessed as a professional/masters then your CRS score will be high.

The other languages don't give you any points or advantage as it relates to immigrating to Canada. Only English and French matter.

For French, you need a B2 (advanced intermediate) to make a difference in your CRS scores.
