I've been reading the posts in this forum to see what others have been experiencing as far as the process of Criminal Rehabilitation, as I've been impatiently awaiting a decision on my application.
I thought I would share my experience, hoping that it may help others, or at least provide some guidance and hope.
I'm in the US and sent in my imm1444e application packet in April 2023. It was sent to the Consulate General of Canada in NY City. I received my approval letter via email today, so 18 months total. My inadmissibility was based on three DUI/DWAI offenses between 1985 and 1991.
I initially had a free consultation with an attorney who specialized in these cases, but decided to undertake the process myself.
