Legal support for individuals deemed inadmissible to Canada due to criminality, medical concerns, misrepresentation, or other reasons. We help clients resolve inadmissibility issues and seek legal remedies.
Individuals may be denied entry into Canada due to criminal records, medical conditions, or misrepresentation in their applications. Inadmissibility can pose significant challenges for travelers, immigrants, and refugees, but legal remedies are available to address these issues and restore eligibility for entry into Canada. Having an experienced immigration lawyer can make a critical difference in navigating complex legal barriers, preparing strong applications, and securing approval from Canadian immigration authorities.
Understanding why a person is deemed inadmissible is the first step toward finding a solution. Below are the most common reasons individuals may be refused entry into Canada:
A past criminal conviction—even for minor offenses—can result in being barred from entering Canada. This includes:
Even if an individual was convicted outside of Canada, Canadian immigration laws apply strict screening policies for all foreign nationals. However, legal pathways such as Criminal Rehabilitation or Temporary Resident Permits (TRPs) may allow for entry.
Individuals may be deemed medically inadmissible if they have a condition that:
In some cases, individuals can present medical opinions, expert evaluations, or alternative healthcare plans to prove they do not pose an undue burden on Canada’s healthcare system.
Providing false, misleading, or incomplete information in an immigration or visa application can lead to serious consequences, including:
Misrepresentation can occur due to falsified documents, failure to disclose prior refusals, or inaccurate information in an immigration application. If misrepresentation is alleged, legal remedies such as appeals or reconsideration requests may be available.
At the Law Office of Tawfic Amandi, we provide tailored legal solutions to help clients overcome inadmissibility and regain eligibility for entry into Canada. Our services include:
✔ Temporary Resident Permits (TRPs): For individuals who are criminally or medically inadmissible, a Temporary Resident Permit allows them to enter Canada for a specific purpose, such as work, study, or family visits. TRPs are granted at the discretion of Canadian immigration authorities and require a strong legal argument demonstrating why entry should be permitted.
✔ Criminal Rehabilitation Applications: If a criminal offense occurred more than five years ago, individuals may be eligible for Criminal Rehabilitation, which permanently removes inadmissibility. A well-prepared application includes character references, proof of rehabilitation, and legal arguments supporting the request.
✔ Medical Inadmissibility Appeals: We work with medical professionals and legal experts to prepare applications that demonstrate mitigation strategies, alternative healthcare solutions, or exemptions that allow clients to remain eligible for immigration.
✔ Misrepresentation Challenges & Appeals: If accused of misrepresentation, we can challenge the decision, present new evidence, and file appeals to Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada (IRCC) or the Federal Court.
If you or a loved one has been denied entry to Canada or is facing inadmissibility concerns, legal assistance is essential. With strategic planning, expert legal representation, and a strong application, overcoming inadmissibility is possible.
