JUDICIAL REVIEW
Being a hub of providing latest opportunities for the immigrants from all around the World, the Canadian government goes up to every possible manner to satisfy the immigrants about the desired application. In this regard, they have set up the policy stated as Judicial Review which allows the immigrants to consult the federal Courts of the Country to know about their immigration decisions.
Judicial Review Program Details
Under Canada’s immigration law, you can ask the Federal Court of Canada to review immigration decisions.
The process is composed of different deadlines, if the Immigration and Refugee Board (IRB) has rejected your claim for refugee protection, you must file an application for a Federal Court review within 15 days of the IRB decision. If you want to apply for a review, you may want to get legal advice as soon as possible. If the Court agrees with the IRB’s original decision and finds there was no error, you will have to leave Canada.
A review by the Federal Court is a 2-stage process:
– leave stage
– judicial review stage
Procedures and time frame
First, an application to review an officer’s decision in a matter arising in Canada. The application for judicial review must be commenced within 15 days after the date on which the person concerned is notified of. Second is the review of an officer’s decision in a matter arising outside Canada, the application must be commenced within 60 days after the date on which the person concerned is notified of. The application is then viewed by Minister of C&I or the Minister of PSEP.
Humanitarian Grounds
The immigration programs in Canada may require a hefty amount of investment, but, that does not restrict the immigrants from applying for a new life in Canada. People who would not normally be eligible to become permanent residents of Canada may be able to apply on humanitarian and compassionate grounds.
Humanitarian Grounds Program Details
Following rules apply to humanitarian and compassionate grounds:
– You are only eligible for humanitarian and compassionate grounds if you are applying for a permanent resident status in Canada or for permanent resident visas abroad. The H&C applications of temporary resident applicants would not be considered.
– You cannot apply for more than one humanitarian and compassionate grounds application at the same time.
– The risk factors will be analyzed, such as persecution, risk to life, cruel and unusual treatment or punishment.
– Having a pending refugee claim will dismantle your chance to apply for humanitarian and compassionate grounds. If you want to apply, you must withdraw your refugee claim before your Immigration and Refugee Board of Canada (IRB) hearing.
– You must fall under the “one year bar” regulation, which states that you cannot apply for humanitarian and compassionate grounds if you had a negative decision from the IRB within the last 12 months.
Requirments
Individuals without legal status would be eligible for H & Cs if they have established themselves in Canada under following criterias:

Intra Company Transfer Program
This Program is specially introduced for corporations, subsidiaries and partnership firms etc. and offers Canadian work permit. These entities must be running and performing day-to-day business activities in the country where they are registered and paying taxes. They should be at least one year old. In fact the older they are, the better it is for the purposes of immigration.
Details of ICT
International employees can land in Canada as Intra Company Transferees, provided the employer and the employee’s relationship has been for over one year in the last three years.
ICT Program is for owners, executives; senior managers engaged primarily in supervisory roles or management of an enterprise. ICT is also for workers with specialized knowledge. This knowledge can be of a product, service, or process. Minimum work experience required should at least be of one year and there has to be genuine/qualifying relationship between the employer and the employee to acquire a work permit.
Once the eligibility criteria have been met, the business can register itself anywhere in Canada. From choosing the business structure to having a Canadian resident as director, you can consult your lawyers/law firm to guide you more on this.
After registration, a work permit application is filed. The applicant gets a closed work permit while his/her spouse gets an open work permit which allows them to work in any field of their choice. The dependent children under 22 years of age can also accompany.
Why choose ICT?
If you work for a company that has a parent company, branch, subsidiary, or affiliate in Canada, you may be able to secure a Canadian work permit through the Intra-Company Transfer program.
Employers bringing international staff to Canada as intra-company transferees are exempt from the requirement to obtain a Labour Market Impact Assessment (LMIA). For this reason, the process can be quicker, simpler, and more cost-effective than the LMIA route.
Qualified intra-company transferees provide ‘significant economic benefit to Canada’ through the transfer of their skills and expertise to the Canadian labor market. Intra-company transferees may be from any country.
