Immigration Canada has finally relaxed the rules for filing criminal investigation records check reports.<\/p>\n
It is expected that the immigration application process will become much easier as the typical obstacle that burdens applicants who wish to immigrate to Canada is removed.<\/p>\n
The number of immigrant applicants is also expected to increase.<\/p>\n
The Federal Immigration Department recently improved the system so that the ‘inquiry for foreign entry and residence permit’ should be submitted instead of ‘with an effective sentence’ for the rules for submitting a criminal inquiry form that must be enclosed when applying for permanent residence or citizenship in Canada. According to Korean law, this inquiry does not record any crimes past a certain period of time.<\/p>\n
‘Effective sentence’ refers to a criminal record that has already been executed. In general, imprisonment for less than 3 years or imprisonment will expire after 5 years. In other words, after a certain period of time, the so-called red line (criminal record) is not disclosed in public documents.<\/p>\n
The main reason criminal records are controversial is because of their drunk driving history.<\/p>\n
In Canada, the government can deny immigration if a criminal record of drunk driving is revealed through an inquiry.<\/p>\n
The Consulate General of Toronto stated, “From the 31st of last month, the Canadian system has been changed so that when applying for a Canadian visa, a ‘receipt for a foreigner’s residence permit’ must be submitted.” I have attached the document stating that it is impossible, but now the confusion and inconvenience are gone.”<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
