This informational post, brought to you by immigration lawyer Michael Niren, founder of VisaPlace.com, addresses the critical issue of deportation from Canada. If you’re facing deportation, it’s essential to understand your rights and available options. Time is of the essence in these cases, so acting quickly is crucial.
What to Expect When Facing Deportation
Typically, individuals facing deportation receive a letter from Canadian immigration authorities outlining a removal date, location, and time of departure. However, this doesn’t necessarily mean all hope is lost. You may have appeal rights that can halt or challenge the deportation order.
Key Actions to Take
- Contact an Immigration Lawyer Immediately: Deportation cases are complex and time-sensitive. Consulting with an experienced immigration lawyer specializing in deportation is the most critical first step. They can assess your specific situation and advise you on the best course of action. Do not delay in seeking legal counsel.
- Explore a Stay of Deportation: In some cases, it’s possible to apply for a stay of deportation. This involves requesting a Federal Court judge to temporarily stop the deportation while another application for your status in Canada is processed. The availability of this option depends on your individual circumstances.
Returning to Canada After Deportation
Being deported from Canada carries significant consequences, as deportation orders typically restrict re-entry. While returning is not impossible, it’s a complex process. A future post will delve into the options available for those who have been deported and wish to return to Canada.
Detention and Deportation
Detention while facing deportation can be a particularly stressful and difficult experience. Again, the most important advice is to seek legal assistance immediately. There are often options available, and an experienced lawyer can help you navigate the process.
