When applying for your permanent residency it’s an exciting time. You’ve likely spent years in Canada studying or working and are ready or invited to finally submit your application for PR. However, every month, many applicants who have applied for PR are rejected. We do not have the statistics on how many applicants are rejected vs how many apply. It should also be known that at the time of writing this post, it can take upwards of 6 months and over to process PR applications. However, one of the most disheartening results is a permanent residency denial for an incorrect approach taken in your application that we see as registered immigration consultants everyday.
If you are ready to apply for your PR but want to double check with an immigration consultant to make sure everything in your application is filled out correctly and the appropriate approach is taken for your file, please book a free consultation with us below.

There are the main and obvious things that can contribute to a permanent residency denial. These factors would be: criminality, security or health issues. However, every year, many applications are denied for preventable reasons that with appropriate consultation beforehand could have been avoided. For example: the processing times for permanent residency sometimes exceed 6 months and if your language test scores expire before the application is processed it can be rejected. IRCC will not contact you to submit new test scores. They will simply reject your application and you will need to reapply. If you believe that your self-employed work experience and tax filings are enough to prove skilled work experience, the officer may see things differently and reject your application if he believes you were self-employed and not a skilled employee.
Seeking professional counsel before submitting your permanent residency application is like performing a practice exam before the an actual exam. At CIVS, we’re registered immigration consultants.
