What is the Difference Departure Exclusion Deportation Order

[Inderpreet]

I want some information before hiring any immigration consultant or a lawyer.

My question is what is the difference between Departure Order, Exclusion Order, and Deportation Order?

The kinds of Removal Orders are based on the Grounds of Inadmissibility. For example,

1) Departure Order (IRPR s224):- This is the least serious kind of removal order. A person who receives this removal order is supposed to leave Canada within 30 days. The person concerned can return to Canada if he/she fulfills the requirements of IRPA in the future. If person concerned does not leave Canada, the removal order turns into deportation order.

2) Exclusion Order (IRPR s225):- The person concerned has to leave Canada immediately upon receipt of exclusion order. The person concerned can not return to Canada for a year. The person concerned needs Authorization to Return to Canada (ARC). If the reason is misrepresentation, the ban is for 5 years.

3) Deportation Order (IRPR 226):- This is the most serious kind of removal order. The person concerned will leave Canada or will be expelled from Canada. The person concerned needs Authorization to Return to Canada (ARC).
