Authorization to return to Canada

When a foreign national is asked to leave Canada, very often in order to return legally they need to apply for an Authorization to Return to Canada (ARC). This is a formal way to ask the Canadian government for permission to re-enter the country, despite having previously been asked to leave.

In the majority of cases, an ARC is not a stand-alone application, meaning that the applicant cannot just submit an ARC application on its own. It is almost always associated with another application and will be processed and reviewed in the context of that application. The only situation in which this would not be the case is if the applicant did not need a visa to come to Canada, for example if he or she is a citizen of a visa-exempt country. In this scenario, an ARC application can be submitted on its own. But if the applicant requires a visa to visit, study, or work in Canada, he or she does not make a separate ARC application (he or she will only need to pay the associated fee of $400 CAD).

“Being asked to leave” can refer to a number of measures the Canadian government takes to ensure the departure of a particular foreign national. Depending on the measure taken, an ARC may or may not be required.

What is an Authorization to Return to Canada?

When you receive a removal order you usually need to receive an Authorization to Return to Canada (ARC) before being able to return to Canada. The following table shows if ARC is necessary for an enforced removal order.

Removal Order

ARC Necessary?

Departure

No

Exclusion

Yes, within the first 12 months

Exclusion (due to
Misrepresentation)

Yes, within the first 60 months

Deportation

Yes, at any time

If you receive a departure order and you do not comply with the conditions, then it turns into a deportation order. Non-compliance with the departure order means you did not leave within 30 days of the enforcement of the departure order or you did not report your departure. Keep in mind that family members of the person who receives deportation or exclusion order could be exempt from the ARC. Consult with a professional for more information.

When does the Countdown Begin?

As should be obvious there is a commencement for avoidance orders, or rather a year for a customary one and 60 months for a distortion one. At the point when you leave Canada you have to meet with an official. The official issues a Certificate of Departure. Subsequently, the beginning date for the commencement is the date on that declaration.

What is an ARC Application?

An ARC application resembles a regular Temporary Resident Visa (TRV) application. Be that as it may, the processing fee is $400 contrasted with $100 for a TRV. You additionally need to present a letter and a few archives to persuade the immigration officer you merit an ARC. Regardless of whether you are a US resident or from a visa-absolved nation, you have to utilize a similar procedure for the Authorization to Return to Canada. In conclusion, you should present the application in the paper to the visa office liable for your nation.

What to Consider in ARC Application?

When you submit an ARC application you need to address the following issues:

  • Explain why you received the removal order;
  • why you may not repeat what caused the removal order in the first place;
  • what are your reasons for returning to Canada;
  • list any potential humanitarian and compassionate elements of your request; and
  • why your reasons for returning to Canada overweigh the reasons for the initial removal order.

Do I need to give biometrics for an ARC application?

The government of Canada does not require biometrics for an ARC application at the moment. However, you may need to give biometrics because of the other application that accompanies your ARC application. Also, they may change their policy in the future.

Remember, you sometimes need to address the root causes of the removal order, before or at the same time as applying for an ARC. For example, you may need to request rehabilitation or record suspension, if the inadmissibility is because of criminality.  Consult with a competent professional for your options.
