® Edited "Testing Regulations on the Replacement of New Maple Leaf Cards for 1 Year in Canadian Immigration Maple Leaf Replacement".

Immigration Canada reportedly issued an announcement on April 27 to change the regulations requiring the person to receive a maple leaf card to change the card and change it to the local address filled in when applying. The announcement notes that Canada's massive mailing maple leaf card renewal exercise is currently a pilot program and after a year's progress, it will assess whether the mail practice should continue.

The Immigration Bureau said that due to changes in the criteria for deciding whether to submit it to the investigation, the percentage of further investigations that require investigations after the trial plan begins will be doubled to 5%. As for changes in the standards, the announcement did not state it. The immigration department pointed out that before April 30, I need to collect all new cards after the immigration maple leaf card myself. According to statistics, according to the current regulations I have collected, about 2.5% of applications require further investigation by the Immigration Bureau.

The announcement also clearly points out possible findings for Canadian immigration applicants who need to be investigated. First, if the investigation results show that immigration officials believe it does not match the permanent resident qualification, the immigration department will still issue a new card for 5 years and will now also be sent to the applicant's address by mail.

For some temporary important matters that require returning to their original residence, this trial plan also includes an emergency application for maple card replacement. Among applicants who do not need to investigate, 90% do not need to receive the card in person, but use email instead. Only 10% of applicants are required to collect in person. Furthermore, the order in which emergency applications are processed is still based on the previous “first review” principle, but has not been changed.

Those who are not eligible may issue a one-year card

The second case is that if an application for a replacement card is found to be ineligible after investigation, it will be denied and face the need to leave the country. Currently, the immigration department can still issue a one-year maple leaf card instead of a five-year new card. Another situation is that the applicant cannot be contacted during the investigation period, and after 6 months, the application will be deemed to be waived and the immigration department will not issue the card again.

There is also an announcement to explain the issue of new cards returned by mail. The announcement states that general positions in Canada must send all maple trees with incorrect addresses to the Sydney Immigration Centre. Immigration officials will try to find a new address. If the applicant is not notified of the change of the address, the free junk card will remain in the filing cabinet for 6 months, waiting for the applicant to pick it up.
