Misrepresentation

What happens if I didn’t misrepresent?

Everyone makes mistakes including visa officers. If you didn’t misrepresent then it is extremely important you properly respond to the PFL within the allotted timeframe or attend the interview well prepared to answer the questions you will receive regarding this matter. If you do this and have facts and or evidence to support your argument then this problem can usually be overcome at this stage.

How can a Regulated Canadian Immigration Consultant (RCIC) help?

Examine the PFL: An RCIC can help identify the main reason for the PFL and assist you in identifying what information and documents are required in order to respond fully to the PFL. A very common mistake individuals make when responding to a PFL is not actually providing the visa officer with the information he or she is requesting.

Interview Preparation: If IRCC has instead requested an interview then an RCIC can help prepare you for the interview and guide you as to what documentation you should bring to the interview to substantiate your argument.

Professional Representation: Responding to a PFL has large and important ramifications as outlined above. It is important you retain professional representation so that someone with experience in responding to PFL’s can assist you in preparing the response and accompanying documents.

Case Law: An RCIC can research relevant case law that can provide valuable insights into how to respond to a PFL and if applicable site relevant case law in the PFL response letter.

If you have been refused a PFL we strongly recommend you contact us as soon as possible. IRCC has issued the PFL because they have concerns about your application and you usually only have one opportunity to respond before a refusal. We are experienced in assisting clients with responding to PFL letters and may be able to help you too before its too late.
