Allegations of misrepresentation in immigration applications are serious and can result in application refusal, inadmissibility, and even a five-year ban from entering or remaining in Canada. Whether intentional or due to a misunderstanding, IRCC treats any false statement, withheld information, or document discrepancy as misrepresentation under Section 40 of the Immigration and Refugee Protection Act (IRPA).
At Sunder Law, we understand the high stakes involved. Our role is to analyze the allegation, protect your rights, and advocate for your future in Canada.
We carefully assess the misrepresentation claim and examine your entire immigration record, submitted forms, and communication history to identify the origin of the issue.
We prepare detailed responses, Procedural Fairness replies, or appeal documents, depending on the stage of the case—ensuring every claim is countered with evidence and legal rationale.
Our team builds a compelling case to demonstrate that the alleged misrepresentation was not intentional, was due to error, or that IRCC’s conclusion lacks context or clarity.
Misrepresentation can jeopardize your permanent residency or future eligibility. We plan beyond the immediate case to preserve your status and protect your immigration future.
