FAQs

​

How will you work on my case since I am living overseas?
​
We have clients around the world and many of them do not have a chance to come to our office before we finally obtain their legal status and protect their rights. We collect useful information from our clients through email, fax and telephone with free or low cost. We obtain original documents through mail or courier to submit them to the authorities. So we can fully represent clients without even meeting them because they live in a different country.
​
How do you charge me?
​
We generally charge a fixed fee for each case depending on the complexity. We set our service fee reasonable within the market rate and we offer our special lower rates on groups of students, single mothers, and seniors.

I received a refusal on my sponsorship case, do I have to appeal?​
 

You have the right to appeal but you don’t have to do it if you choose not to.  You may want to re-file a new application with your new supporting documents.  However, you should have professional legal advice on whether appeal or start a new application because as a sponsor, you have only 30 days after the refusal to appeal to the IAD.

Who can appeal a Removal Order?
​
If you want to appeal a removal order, you must do so within 30 days of its issue. Not everyone can appeal.  For example, if you have been convicted of a crime with a sentence of two years or more or if you are a security threat, you cannot appeal your removal order.

What are the different kinds of Removal Order?
​
There are different types of Removal Orders, depending on your status in Canada and other factors:



1. Departure Order:  It is an order to leave Canada within 30 days after the order comes into effect. If you do not leave or if you do not notify the CBSA before leaving, the Departure Order automatically becomes a Deportation Order after 30 days.



2. Exclusion Order: you must leave Canada and cannot return for at least a year unless you have written permission from the Government of Canada.  If you were removed for misrepresentation – for example, purposely not telling the truth – you cannot come back for two years.



3. Deportation Order: You will be removed from Canada and you are permanently barred from Canada
