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

    So the problem with regularizing 3 million temporary residents is it would set precedence going forward that would allow anyone who manages to remain in Canada, regardless of status, to demand permenent residency, as long as they've been here a certain amount of time. Never going to happen. It...

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

    While it's probably still too early for any expectations on what C12 will actually mean to H&C, the reality is that the changes are likely intended to close this avenue to all but truly "exceptional"cases (an actual definition of what those exceptions are would be nice). If H&C was your only...

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

    Those look like proposed amendments. No definitive changes in C12 yet. Second reading still contains the original intent to allow cancelations (87.300-87.305) https://www.parl.ca/documentviewer/en/45-1/bill/C-12/second-reading

    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

    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...
