Hi, well... last february I bought a ticket to vancouver to leave on April 18th.
I have a valid eTA since 2017 and have traveled 3 different times making the right use of it, as a tourist, not working or school, have pastport stamps and airplane itineries to match information of entry and exit of the country.
When I arrive at the airpot they let me know my eTA was cancelled and that I had recevid and email, letting me know... I confirm the information in my junk mail:
Following an assessment of your file, it has been determined that you no longer meet the requirements for an Electronic Travel Authorization (eTA). As a result, your eTA has been cancelled.
Your application has been cancelled for the following reason(s):
You have misrepresented or withheld material facts relating to a matter that induced or could have induced an error in the administration of the Immigration and Refugee Protection Act which would render you inadmissible to Canada as per section 40(1)(a)
Your file is now closed. Should you wish to reapply for an eTA, we encourage you to do so only once you have addressed the reason(s) for the cancellation of your application. At that time, you may submit a new application at www.canada.ca/eTA
You are no longer considered to hold a valid eTA. As such, you should not plan or undertake any travel to Canada by air. If you do decide to travel to Canada, you may experience delays or be prevented from boarding your flight and/or entering Canada.
The last time I was there I left with no problems, I really dont understand, and when I inquired and they replied they sent me the same info. I had find online that doesnt apply to me:
Dear applicant,
You may be denied a visa, or an Electronic Travel Authorization (eTA), refused entry to, or removed from Canada for any of these reasons:
· security reasons, including
o espionage
o subversion (attempts to overthrow a government, etc.)
o violence or terrorism, or
o membership in an organization involved in any of these
· human or international rights violations, including
o war crimes
o crimes against humanity
o being a senior official in a government engaged in gross human rights violations or subject to international sanctions
· committing a crime, including driving while under the influence of drugs or alcoholFootnote 1
· organized crime, including membership in an organization that takes part in organized criminal activity, people smuggling or money laundering
· medical reasons – which include medical conditions that:
o endanger public health
o endanger public safety, or
o causes excessive demand on health or social services (some applicants are exempt)
· financial reasons – if you’re unable or unwilling to support yourself and your family members
· misrepresentation, which includes providing false information or withholding information directly related to decisions made under the Immigration and Refugee Protection Act (IRPA)
· failure to comply with any provision of IRPAFootnote 2 or
· having an inadmissible family member.
I replied that none of this applies to me so there was another reply that basically told me reaply, ofcourse I had already since day 1 from the airport in hope to save my trip, Its been 4 months now and the new application is still not approved; finall desition: not started.
I don't even understan if i did something wrong, I know that I followed all the rules and that I haven't even gotten a chance to clarify or even aedress the reasons and explain and proove.
Any suggetions on who to reach or what to do next? I have been very patience letting this take the natural course but this was going to be our 3rd summer in beautiful BC and it had to be cancelled.
Thanx in advanced.
