I believe that @wonderbly knows what's correct in principle. In practice IRCC could and has mis-performed according to this guideline, and no applicant wants to be in that situation. Even if it's 100% win, why risk going to court anyway? Getting PR smoothly is much more important than feeling correctly minimalistic, no?As much as I hate ircc, this is simply not correct.

IRCC has to follow guidelines on the website; otherwise, it’s an easy win in the court
