Hi there,
Please reply for my query.
My husband came Canada on visitor visa and stated at the airport that he came for tourism. But he had job offer and LMIA so he went on border in Canada after 4 days to submit his work visa application but an immigration officer refused his application and imposed section 40 (1) a, inadmissible for misrepresentation and told leave country within week. My question is, I asked an advisor that for how long he’s been banned but he said on his letter which been given by officer didn’t say he is banned. Advisor said there are two types of inadmissible section, in one there is bann and in other no ban. Moreover other officer who seized his passport said when he will report at airport in given time period there will be no charge for inadmissible and they will remove all charges and he can apply work visa outside Canada.
Is it true after getting 40(1)a not necessary to ban for five.
Please answer my question.

To begin with, he abused visit visa when he already had job offer and LMIA, why he didn't apply for work visa instead ?

Asylum ? No wonder people are getting cynical about the whole asylum program

People who abuse visit visa are making it difficult for other applicants, it's unfair to come on visit visa and apply for asylum, there are people in the world who really need help and then there are people who just want to take advantage of the system.

I second everything you said Ahsan. Just recently my sis in laws visa got denied from Saudi. She works full time there and just wanted to visit her sister

You are absolutely right! But we asked advisor as well to apply work permit online but he said it will take another 3 months and won’t be any trouble because all my other clients have got their visas approved with the same method. And now we are suffering. Is there anything we can do? Please advise.
Thanks
