Regarding the Canadian Maple Leaf Card policy, there are actually many places that need perfection. Chinese Canadians have been looking forward to some humanized reforms.

Recently, the committee of the local immigration lawyer organization submitted a reform plan to the Canadian Immigration Bureau.

According to reports, the plan aims to "humanized treatment" about permanent residence rules (PR) and adjust the "Immigration and Refugee Protection Law" (IRPA).

Adopting the current solid and identity renewal rules, some Canadian residents who are in emergency or special circumstances may face long processing time and unclear prospects.

Just like the 81 -year -old Canadian immigrant, he was refused to return to Canada because he has lived in China for several years.

Similar examples include:

1. Immigration went abroad due to emergency (such as participating in the funeral), but there was no effective permanent resident card and was eventually refused to enter Canada.

2. Foreign workers who have been forced to stop working during the recovery application are forced to stop working

3. Relatives who want to reunite with their families are returned due to incomplete immigration application packs and can be submitted a few months later.

Every day, immigration lawyers encounter immigrants troubled by these situations.

In this regard, Randy Hahn, a Toronto immigration lawyer, said: "At present, many legal interpretations and applications have a great impact on everyone's normal life."

Last summer, some experienced Randy and the Canadian Immigration Lawyer Association established a committee to review the "Immigration and Refugee Protection Law".

According to reports, the Immigration and Refugee Protection Law (IRPA) was promulgated in 2001 and replaced the "Immigration Law" in 1976, but due to its effect, it has not yet conducted a comprehensive review.

After nearly a year of hard work, the Randy team recently released a report.

This report is recommended to abolish outdated, use limited and continuous discrimination clauses, modify some terms to solve the inconsistency of the law, and add some regulations to fill the blank.

"Immigration arrangements should avoid unnecessary complexity to people's lives. Our goal is to update the" immigration and refugee protection law "with a 20 -year history.

The title of the report is "Let us clean up our laws". The bill proposes some of the most common problems and doubts (as follows) amendments, and will be submitted to the federal government for the federal government for review.

1. You can get maple leaf cards and updates abroad

Randy believes that the current legal wording is very vague. Applicants must apply for a permanent resident card in Canada. This is a document that immigrants have entered Canada, but there seems to be no legal policy foundation.

During the application, the applicant may have an emergency or delay, causing them to leave Canada without a maple leaf card.

Therefore, they must apply for a travel certificate to return, but this is not a insurance method.

"People should be able to get a permanent resident card abroad, just like they can get passports."

2. Waiting for the approval period, you can leave the country

At present, the number of temporary residents in Canada has increased index, nearly 2.5 million, including tourists, temporary foreign workers and international students.

Usually, their identity may expire and change between different projects, so they may also lose their existing identities.

"Even if your document is about to expire, the immigration department will not give priority to your documents. If you leave Canada, you will lose your identity."

The report recommends changing the law so that the applicant can leave the country, but it must be retained, so that they do not have to be trapped here after a few months waiting for the new documents to waste time within a few months.

In addition, the report also recommends changing the law to allow those who have lost their legal identity due to inadvertent mistakes to obtain identity during the recovery application processing.

3. Avoid changes in immigration policies often

Through the current law, it allows Canadian immigration ministers to issue special instructions on the economic immigration project, such as priority to handle applicants with a specific background.

The report recommends changing the law and creating a 60 -day notification period, allowing the instructions of these ministers to comment, and the minister must also provide the reason for changes.

"This proposal will increase transparency, predictability and accountability, which is crucial for Canada's economic performance."

4. Due to health problems, it is impossible to refuse to enter the country

At present, the law stipulates that if foreigners are expected to cause excessive demand for medical or social services due to health, they can refuse to enter due to health problems.

In 2018, the then immigration minister Ahmed promised to abolish the rule, but to this day, the promise has not yet been realized.

"This clause regards people with health as a potential economic burden and ignore its potential contribution. This is a kind of discrimination."

In addition, the report also suggested to cancel the 5 -year entry ban caused by false statements; stipulates that the immigration department must complete all the inspection of the application within 30 days; given the current video technology progress, acknowledges that one of the non -existent on the scene is acknowledged Applicants exist.
