What is rule 26 exclusion Section E

[Saralynn97]

Hey guys my hearing was supposed to be in May but it was canceled due to administrative reason, I was re schedule and my hearing is next month, I got a letter from IRB saying that the rule 26 exclusion section E may apply to my case.
I did live many years in another country that’s near my home country but I was never able to get permanent residence there. They are basically saying they don’t believe the fact I didn’t have any papers and if the minister wishes to intervene, they must do so before the date fixed for the hearing. What does it mean? Do I have to contact the minister or they do that themselves? I’m very positive about my claim and I know I will win but this letter has me thinking so much, pls I need some advice.

The minister will do it themselves. If the minister does end up intervening, get an immigration lawyer if you don't already have one. Minister intervention is serious.

You'll be notified. Your lawyer should be very familiar with what this means.

As Scylla comment, you need to get Immigration Lawyer. Technically IRB sent information to the Minister and invited Minister to the hearing..
