The Used Fee Receipt Resulted in Refusal and Misrepresentation
-
The officer did his/her best to find your brother through email and phone which were provided in your brother’s application. Since there was no new fee with the application, the officer was unable to make any decision. Finally, he/she gave procedural fairness opportunity to your brother but no one responded; therefore, the officer not only refused the application but also banned him for 5 years under s-40 of IRPA means misrepresentation. The officer decided that your brother has knowingly submitted the fee receipt which was already used in his previous application. The intention seems suspicious because when procedural fairness letter was sent by IRCC, your brother did not even respond. The clarification will not work now that it was not your brother but his agent. The agent may not be an authorized representative (member ICCRC); who did not have any fear because he will not have any licence to lose. This is the reason that you should avail the services of professional immigration consultants or lawyers.
