Hi Mahdi, not sure if you are still in the forum, but I am posting just in case.
I am in the exact same situation as you. I didn't declare previous US visa refusal in study permit and post graduate work permit application but still got them. I have Post graduate work permit valid until 2021. I recently applied TRV and awaiting decision. I come to your thread and get really panic. Is your US refusal happened after or before you made PGWP applications? How come CIC found US refusal only in TRV but not in PGWP? Thank you.
Meanwhile, wish you a great life in Canada and maybe apply for PR after the misrepresentation period end. Thank you again.
Hi there,
If you did not mention your VISA refusal in TRV contact me in the fastest way that you can! You should inform them before the officer open your case! The office that takes care of permits is different from the office that issue TRV. The TRV office is in US! The United Kingdom, the United States, Canada, Australia and New Zealand share data! Yout family name is enough to find out your refusal! contact me soon!

Have anyone oversight the question of "if you've ever been refused or denied a work permit for Canadan or any other country" and unintentionally select no?

This has happen to my husband and they ask him to write a explanation as to why he wasn't truthful and why he was refused.
The immigration firm that he dealing with knows that he went to the USA embassy and was denied.
The lawyer was the one that filled out the form, send the form to my husband foe review but we didn't realise the question had any other country or we misread the question.

Am now asking the fact that the immigration lawyer that he's using knows that he was denied the visa if the lawyer could write a letter on his behalf stating it was a mistake because they knew about the refusal?

Your husband was responsible for what was in his forms. IRCC generally doesn't accept the "rep did it" excuse. He should expect a refusal and potentially a ban for misrepresentation.

Hi friends,
I was accused of misrepresentation by visa officer last month and got procedural fairness letter. i responded and told the truth about my mistake. and today i got response that there will be no ban for misrepresentation and have to apply for application again.
I just wanted to say that try to speak the truth when you get a chance form IRCC. they do listen.
Hi Chahal, im facing the same situation now , i unintentionally didn't provide details about a USA refusal visa when i was rejected 2 years ago, but i checked the box as (yes) where they asked about (have you ever been rejected by a canadian visa or any other country) i just mentioned in the next question where you need to provide details, about a refusal canadian visa when i applied 7 months ago since im applying for canadian visa for one more time now. i received an procedural fairness letter saying inside it ( i may be inadmissible for misrepresentation for a period of five years for entering canada) but at the end of the letter they told me (Before rending a decision, I am providing you with an opportunity to respond to my concerns. Please submit any evidence, proof or information you would like in order to alleviate my concerns listed above within thirty (30) days).
my question is: is there any tips you used sending your letter back or any specific structure, im afraid to get inadmissible!
any help would be very appreciated. thank you

How long after you sent a procedural fairness letter did you get a response from them?
And did you re apply and was your application successful?

Dear All,

I was banned for misrepresentation in July 2015. I am hoping to apply again in 2020. So Just wanted to know how I can make the application perfect this time.

All the issues happened because I failed to reply for the below procedural fairness letter which I received on 14 April 2015

"This refers to your application for permanent residence in Canada.

Upon review of your file a number of concerns were raised.

- In your application you have declared 1 year of full time experience with XXXX as a Purchase Manager (NOC 0113) from June 2013 to September 2014. There is a lack supporting documentation on file to support your employment such as pay slips, Income Tax Returns, Form 16, Form 2, and Provident Fund Statements.

- A number of the duties identified have been taken directly from the National Occupation Classification (NOC) and do not make sense with the open source information available on your employment.

- Open source information shows you were employed with YYYY in Saudi Arabia from October 2011 to August 2014 as an International Purchaser (NOC 1225).

Given the information before me, I have concerns with your employment history with Safa Tiles and Granites and that you are employed in NOC 0113 – Purchasing managers.

Before a decision is made in your case, I am providing you with the opportunity to comment on the above concern or provide any observation or explanation in writing

You have thirty (30) days from the date of this letter to respond to our concerns. At that time a decision may be made on your application based on the information on file"

On 15 July 2015, I received the below letter

"You misrepresented or withheld the following material facts:

- your employment history with XXXX in India from June 2013 to September 2014
I reached this determination because open source information contained in your LinkedIn profile indicates that you were employed with YYYY in Saudi Arabia from October 2011 to August 2014. The misrepresentation or withholding of this/these material fact(s) induced or could have induced errors in the administration of the Act because employment history is a material fact that could have induced an error in the administration of the Act as it is relevant to eligibility and admissibility.
As a result, you are inadmissible to Canada for a period of five years from the date of this letter."

Can anyone please advise what could I possibly do to correct this in the next application?
Can I remove this whole work experience and apply using a different NOC for which I have enough supporting documentation OR whether I should correct all the above concerns?

Thanks

Hey Guys, I am also in a situation where i foresee refusal coming. I am currently on BOWP and COPR has been already received. The misrepresentation was done in health history. I am really very worried about my situation and thinking whether to give a miss to landing and let the COPR expires so that i can reapply and avoid ban for five years. Please please advise.
So you misrepresented your health history and now you're asking how you can avoid the punishment for misrepresentation?

You shouldn’t have misrepresented but doesn’t necessarily lead to refusal. Were you hospitalized for your mental health issue? Unable to work for a long time? Why were you not honest about your health issues and currently treatment since you are currently stable?

Why do you see a refusal coming? Did you make IRCC aware of the omission?
