If Canada needs so many people, why do they deny visas?

Many people have the misconception that because Canada needs so many people then all visas will automatically be approved. It is important to understand that the approval or denial of visas is not linked to the urgency with which Canada needs people to fill its needs either for professional labor or to populate large areas that are understaffed.

‍

Consequently, Canada does not approve all visas. When a person applies for a specific visa there are a number of strict and non-negotiable elements and requirements that are part of each application.

‍

Each person must meet certain requirements and also have a profile that makes him/her admissible to Canada under the IRPA. 

‍

The approval of each application depends on factors such as: 

‍

• Purpose of the trip, 
• Duration of stay in Canada,
• Applicant's financial capacity, https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Sg4BKAyEkN0
• Travel History, https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GOkM_5V1tzs
• Applicant's current immigration status in the country where he/she is located, 
• Criminal record. 

‍

At the moment of deciding to travel to Canada, the applicant must self-assess himself/herself to define if his/her profile has any elements that may make him/her inadmissible to Canada or if he/she may have a red flag that may complicate his/her process. This can be done in detail in an immigration consultation with a CICC consultant of Immiland Canada https://www.immilandcanada.com/migracion/consultas

‍

Here are these elements that may complicate your process or make it inadmissible. 

‍

Elements that have a higher risk of rejection or ensure rejection in their application: 

‍

• Being without immigration documents in a country other than your country of origin. In these situations it is best to leave that country if you wish to apply for a temporary visa with Canada (tourism, study or work). If you cannot leave that country then your visa objective with Canada should be to apply directly for permanent residency,

‍

• Have been deported from Canada in the past,
• Have a criminal record and be ineligible to apply for rehabilitation, 
• Have a medical condition that is life-threatening to Canadians or that may generate a cost that is above CAD$24,000. 

‍

Elements that may impair its application:

‍

• Have a low or non-existent travel history. That is, never having left your country and having no stamps in your passport or having left more than 5 years ago,
• Failure to adequately present the reason for travel. This is presented in the letter of reasons, 
• People with little roots that generate satisfaction to the officer that the applicant has reason to return to the country of origin in the future,
• Not having had any work or educational activity in the last few years prior to applying for the visa. 

‍

It is therefore important to make a good self-assessment and identify these elements to avoid rejection or reduce the reasons for rejection. 

‍

Canada maintains its pass/fail standards to ensure that the harmony and balance that exists in the country is not compromised in the process of meeting the needs of employers.
