We provide 30-minute free assessments. After 30 minutes, we will charge a consultation fee of 150 CAD/hour. If we were retained after the consultation, the fee would become a part of the service fee.

To keep your permanent resident status, you must have been in Canada for at least 730 days during the last five years. These 730 days don’t need to be continuous. Some of your time abroad may count towards the 730 days.

If a temporary resident has lost his status or his authorisation to work or study expires, he may apply to restore that status in accordance with IRPR.

It is important to note that since status and authorisation are not the same under the IRPA, an applicant can only restore their status to that of a temporary resident and to the authorisation that they held immediately prior to the restoration application. For example, a student who lost their status cannot apply to restore temporary resident status with authorisation to work.

Foreign nationals who are in-Canada visitors are not eligible to apply for a study permit from within Canada unless they are exempt under section R215. They must submit their application package online or to a VAC. If their application is approved, they must obtain their study permit at a POE.

Foreign nationals who are in Canada as visitors and who receive a valid job offer will continue to be able to apply for and receive a work permit without having to leave the country. Visitors applying under this public policy who held a work permit within the last 12 months, will also continue to be able to request interim work authorization to begin working for their new employer more quickly. Set to expire today, this COVID-era temporary public policy has been extended by 2 years until February 28, 2025. Leaving this temporary policy in place makes visitors an option for employers in Canada, as many are facing significant labor shortages during this period of economic expansion.
