    Flag pooling vs travel history

    n December 24, 2024, the Government of Canada ended the practice of “flagpoling”, which happens when a temporary resident leaves Canada and immediately returns to a port of entry to get immigration services. This practice used significant resources at the border, detracted from U.S. and Canadian...

    Parents PR renewal terms

    I'd expect a fair amount of scrutiny. Was the company established primarily to provide your parents the opportunity to claim the credit? Did the company exist prior to your parents receiving their PR? Does it generate revenue, with genuine documented transactions and clients or is it a "shell"...

    Who would like to explain the "at the time of that application"117(9)(D)? Does it include "the first time landing"

    Well good luck. Not much point in expressing an opinion as you are quite settled in your interpretation (asking for an explanation or debate was obviously not the original intent of the post). Many have tried and I suspect most have failed at challenging the law. Maybe you'll get lucky, but use...

    Who would like to explain the "at the time of that application"117(9)(D)? Does it include "the first time landing"

    I somehow doubt that grammar is going to be useful in an arguing in court that IRCC has made an error. Canadian courts balance "Letter of Law" with "Intent of the Law". What is the intent of the legislation...to exclude those who were not declared or examined before the coMpletuon of the...

    H&C Humanitarian Ground with/or Without Failed refugee claim

    This is potentially where I see it going. Now that other nations are "creatively" adjusting their policies, I suspect the government will be watching these changes closely. https://www.cbc.ca/news/world/britain-asylum-overhaul-9.6980717

    counting days o/s Canada while accompanying Canadian spouse, towards residency obligation

    You might want to read through https://www.canadavisa.com/canada-immigration-discussion-board/threads/living-with-canadian-citizen-abroad-definition-of-accompanying.875561/ All I'm saying is the "Accompanying a Canadian" definition is, well, broadly interpreted by everyone and the laws...

    counting days o/s Canada while accompanying Canadian spouse, towards residency obligation

    Just my $0.02! I don't make the decision... The who's accompanying and previous establishment and all the other arguments have been debated on here for years. Problem being, the results are so inconsistent, you can never tell where it's going to go. Just my perspective on what an immigration...

    counting days o/s Canada while accompanying Canadian spouse, towards residency obligation

    I'm sure others will chime in about what I'm about to say, but technically, you haven't actually accompanied your spouse since you've never actually resided in Canada since receiving your PR (until September). Not saying it wouldn't count, but I suspect someone reviewing your application for...

    H&C Humanitarian Ground with/or Without Failed refugee claim

    It's hasn't gone through any readings in the senate, but it has gone through first and second reading in the House. If my rather dusty memory on the process is correct, it will have to pass all three readings in the senate before final reading in the house. So still possible changes or...

    Urgent: Sudden Increase in PR Processing Times for Refugees and Protected Persons (Up to 99 Months!)

    "Why shouldn't there be an opportunity to increase quotas?" Simple. It would be political suicide in the current atmosphere. The voting pubic is currently opposed to increased quotas. That includes refugees.

    H&C Humanitarian Ground with/or Without Failed refugee claim

    Well, the only thing I've garnered from watching the committee debate this is we sorely need to improve the competency of Ministers (and politicians in general) we elect. What a gong show.
