Revocation of Landed Immigrant Status
So you’ve obtained your landed immigrant status in Canada and may think that you are safe and entitled to all the rights and privileges of a Canadian citizen. However, it’s essential to understand that while you have certain privileges, you are still considered a guest in the country, as you continue to carry the passport of your country of origin. It’s crucial to be aware of the limitations and responsibilities associated with your landed immigrant status to avoid potential complications that may lead to the revocation of your status.
Understanding the Risks
As a landed immigrant, it’s important to be aware of the potential risks that could lead to the revocation of your status:
-
Criminal Activities: Engaging in criminal activities can have serious consequences, including the possibility of having your landed immigrant status revoked. If you are found to have participated in criminal acts, especially those deemed serious enough, you may become the subject of a removal order.
-
Violation of Terms and Conditions: Your landed immigrant status is contingent upon adhering to the terms and conditions set forth in the Immigration Act at the time of obtaining your status. Failure to comply with these terms and conditions can result in the revocation of your status. For example, if you are a spouse or common-law partner and are no longer residing with your sponsor when your status is approved, or if you fail to fulfill the required residency obligations, your status may be at risk.
Seeking Legal Representation
If you find yourself facing the possibility of having your landed immigrant status revoked, it’s crucial to seek legal representation immediately. Canada Immigration has recently notified approximately 20,000 individuals who may fall into the aforementioned categories, putting their status in jeopardy. To protect your rights and navigate the complex legal process, it’s essential to consult with experienced immigration consultants who can provide expert guidance and representation.
