Canada has introduced new regulations that empower immigration officers to revoke temporary resident documents, such as electronic travel authorizations (eTAs), temporary resident visas (TRVs), as well as work and study permits, in certain situations.
The changes, reported by Immigration News Canada (INC), are intended to improve border security and support the immigration system.
The amendments to the Immigration and Refugee Protection Regulations (IRPR) give immigration and border services officers greater authority to manage issues related to temporary resident status.
Hereunder are specific circumstances under which temporary resident documents can be cancelled under the new regulations:
1. Ineligibility or inadmissibility: If a person’s situation changes, such as providing false information or a criminal conviction.
2. Risk of overstay: If an officer believes that an individual might not leave Canada by the end of their authorized stay.
