When dealing with urgent immigration matters, time is critical. Immigration laws impose strict deadlines, and failing to act quickly can severely impact your rights and options. If you or a loved one is facing detention, deportation, or a refused application, seeking immediate legal assistance is essential to protect your status in Canada. Delays can lead to missed appeal deadlines, loss of legal options, or even enforced removal. Our legal team is ready to provide swift and strategic guidance to help safeguard your immigration status.

Why is it important to act quickly in urgent immigration matters?

Delays in seeking legal help can result in missed deadlines, loss of appeal rights, or enforcement of removal orders. Our legal team assists with:

  • • Filing appeals and applications for reconsideration.
  • • Requesting stays of deportation.
  • • Challenging refusals before the Federal Court.
  • • Seeking release from immigration detention.
  • • Denial of flight by the airline.
  • • Denial of entry to Canada at the airport or at the U.S.-Canada land border.

How can I help someone who has been detained by CBSA?

If a family member, employee, or friend has been detained by the Canada Border Services Agency (CBSA), they will have a detention review hearing within 48 hours. If detention continues, further reviews occur at 7 days and every 30 days thereafter. Legal representation at these hearings is crucial to arguing for release on bail or other legal remedies

What are my options if I have received a deportation order?

If you have been issued a Direction to Report for Removal, immediate action is necessary. Our legal team can assess your options, including:

  • • Requesting a stay of removal with the Federal Court of Canada.
  • • Applying for a deferral of removal with CBSA.
  • • Exploring humanitarian and compassionate (H&C) relief options.

What should I do if my immigration application has been refused?

If your immigration or citizenship application has been refused, you may have a limited timeframe to challenge the decision. Depending on the type and location of the refusal, appeal deadlines can range from 15, 30, or 60 days. Acting within these deadlines is crucial to preserving your legal rights.

What can be done if I am denied entry to Canada due to inadmissibility?

If you have been refused entry at a Canadian port of entry due to criminality, misrepresentation, or other inadmissibility concerns, you may be able to:

  • • Challenge the decision legally.
  • • Apply for a Temporary Resident Permit (TRP) to gain temporary entry into Canada.

What documents should I have ready when seeking legal assistance?

To ensure a swift and effective legal response, it is recommended to have the following documents available for review:

  • • Refusal letter, notice, report, or direction from Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada (IRCC) or CBSA.
  • • Copies of the application in question and any prior communications with immigration authorities.
  • • Client ID number (eight-digit number assigned by IRCC/CBSA).
