Hi all
thanks for this nice helpfull forum
My application completion date was 02 feb 2024. Today I recieved a procedural fairness letter:
Immigration and Refugee Protection Act provides that a foreign national must, before entering Canada, apply to an officer for a visa or any other document required by the Regulations. The visa or document shall be issued if, following an examination, the officer is satisfied that the foreign national is not inadmissible and meets the requirements of this Act. I have concerns that you have not fulfilled the requirement put upon you by section 16(1) of the Immigration and Refugee Protection Act, which states: 16(1) A person who makes an application must answer truthfully all questions put to them for the purpose of the examination and must produce a visa and all relevant evidence and documents that the officer reasonably requires.
On your application summary for a visitor visa, received 2024/02/02, page 7 question 'Have you ever been refused a visa or permit, denied entry to, or ordered to leave any country or territory?'. You answered “Yes”, adding “Previously denide [sic] twice for visitor visa to Canada for Tourism.our records indicate that you were refused a US visa also.
I am concerned that you have not been truthful in your application answers, and that you may have directly or indirectly misrepresented or withheld material facts relating to a relevant matter that could have induced an error in the administration of the Act.
Please note that if it is found that you have engaged in misrepresentation in submitting your application, you may be found to be inadmissible under section 40(1)(a) of the Immigration and Refugee Protection Act. Such a finding of inadmissibility would render you inadmissible to Canada for a period of five years according to section 40(2)(a): 40(1) A permanent resident or a foreign national is inadmissible for misrepresentation
(a) for directly or indirectly misrepresenting or withholding material facts relating to a relevant matter that induces or could induce an error in the administration of this Act 40(2) The following provisions govern subsection (1):
(a) the permanent resident or the foreign national continues to be inadmissible for misrepresentation for a period of five years following, in the case of a determination outside Canada, a final determination of inadmissibility under subsection (1) or, in the case of determination in Canada, the date the removal order is enforced.
I would like to give you an opportunity to respond to this information. I will afford you fifteen (15) days from the date of this letter to make any representations in this regard.
To respond, go to the "Application Details" page, click the "View submitted applications" button at the bottom of the page, and follow the instructions provided on the "Documents Submitted" page.
If you do not respond to this request within the time outlined above, your application will be assessed based on the information available, which will likely result in a refusal.
