RQ April 2013

[canton]

Hi Guys,
I need your help and suggestions for RQ. I got my RQ yesterday from Mississauga office. Submitted my application Feb 2012 along with my son.
After almost 16 months got RQ. now need to reply within 45 days. My weakness is my stay in Canada only for few months during 4 years but mentioned in my file more than 1095 days. My son was studying back home in India and I mentioned in his application that he is studying backhome but I mentioned that I have been living here and working as self employed.
I have maintained reasonable evidences but not very strong. Now I need suggestions about the situation,should I reply with weak evidences or should
withdraw my application. What consequences I can see if I challenge it and what will happen if I withdraw?
Can I apply later with real stay of 3 years?
I would really appreciate if LEON and other experts can advise me.

Thanks,

Do not fill the RQ. They will close the file automatically after sometime. Apply again when you meet the requirements.

You are a clear example of a fraudelent applicant.

Actions such as yours have necessitated CIC to increase the issuing of RQ's to thousands of applicants including those who are genuine but are caught up in the 'false residence' mess you and others such as yourself have created.

Ignore the RQ the file will be classed as abandoned and closed. Alternatively withdraw in writing. CiC may decide to prosecute though and your next application will most likely and should include a RQ and detailed review.

Parliament should strengthen and amend/ introduce misrepresentation clauses in the Citizenship Act as they have in the IRPA to make fraudelent applicants inadmissible to Canada.

I am not sure, what kind of advice can be given, when rules are intentionally not followed and then, you are depending on the chance that your application will get through without any RQ. Its injustice to those that are following the system and going by the rules..

I know you have all the good intentions on why you would want to be a part of this great dominion but alongside with your good intentions must always be a true representation of the facts and circumstances that will lead you to become one. If you withdraw your application or intentionally let it be declared abandoned, the next time you and your child applied for citizenship you will be flagged and maybe undergoes more strict scrutiny from CIC. Better hire a certified immigration lawyers early as today. Best of luck to you and to your son.

Nobody can say it better, Hats off Msafiri!

This is exactly why they are issuing RQ's. You lived abroad paid very little taxes and want to be a Citizen. Because of a very few people like you thousands of hard working tax paying genuine applicants are caught up in this RQ mess.

Thanks guys. i am going to withdraw my application.

Is this true? Surely they shouldn't just ignore fraudulent activity and allow people to stay in the country. Isn't there some sort of penalty, or at the very least, revocation of Pr status?

I am not sure how much cheap you are trying to get something you are not even eligible for.

Even if you ignore the RQ and/or withdraw the application, CIC keeps a record of everything submitted. Next time you apply, they have a right to ask you to account for your time since you first entered Canada and not just the relevant 4-year period. So you may have to face up to this "weakness".

In an attempt to avoid the RQ, you actually brought it upon yourself. Self-employment is one of the triage criteria/risk factors that may cause a RQ to be issued.
