A removal order is issued by Canadian immigration authorities when they decide that an individual must leave Canada due to specific reasons, such as violating immigration laws or overstaying a visa. A removal order can have serious consequences, and individuals affected by it may be able to appeal the decision. If you have received a removal order, it’s essential to understand the process and your options for challenging the decision.
Removal orders are typically issued when an individual has violated Canadian immigration laws or has overstayed their authorized stay in Canada. Some common reasons for removal orders include:
If a removal order is issued against you, it’s important to act quickly and explore the options available to challenge the decision.
If you have been issued a removal order, you may have the right to appeal the decision to the Immigration Appeal Division (IAD) of the Immigration and Refugee Board (IRB). This process allows you to challenge the order and request that you be allowed to remain in Canada.
The first step in the appeal process is to file a Notice of Appeal with the IAD. You must do this within a specific timeframe, usually 30 days after receiving the removal order. The notice should outline your intention to challenge the removal order and present your reasons for wanting to stay in Canada.
Once the Notice of Appeal is filed, the IAD will schedule a hearing. During the hearing, you will have the opportunity to present your case and explain why the removal order should be overturned. You can submit new evidence, clarify misunderstandings, and demonstrate why you should be allowed to remain in Canada.
It’s important to be prepared for the hearing and have all the necessary documentation to support your appeal. A paralegal can help you organize and prepare the required paperwork, ensuring that you meet all the deadlines and requirements for the appeal.
