Judicial Review
Individuals can challenge the decisions made by the immigration authorities in a federal court, and this process is called Judicial Review. It is a process specifically aimed at reviewing the legality of these decisions.
This process provides a critical oversight mechanism to ensure that decisions impacting the lives of individuals seeking to enter or remain in Canada adhere to the principles of fairness and justice.
Appeals
Immigration appeals provide individuals with the opportunity to contest decisions that affect their ability to enter or remain in the country.
The types of decisions that can be appealed include those related to family sponsorship, removal orders, and residency obligations. The process allows for a review of the decision made by Immigration Refugees and Citizenship Canada (IRCC) or Canada Border Services Agency (CBSA) officials.
The appeal process involves several stages, including filing a notice of appeal, preparing for a hearing, and attending the hearing where both oral and written evidence can be presented. Decisions made by the Immigration Appeal Division (IAD) can sometimes be further appealed to the Federal Court of Canada, depending on the grounds of the appeal and the specific legal issues involved.
Overall, the appeal process serves as a crucial check on the administrative decisions affecting immigrants, ensuring fairness and adherence to Canadian laws and regulations.
