TRP at the Canadian visa office may take up to six (6) months to process

Applying for the TRP at the Canadian visa office may take up to six (6) months to process. The processing time depends on the visa office you are applying to. There are certain locations that are busier than the others.

The time may also depend on the type of admissibility you may have. For instance, convictions on your criminal record may be more complicated or serious and the decision on those applications may take more time. Depending on the case you may be called for an interview, although they are rare.

Your application may also be delayed if you did not provide the right documents to the officer, or did not complete the application correctly. If you are criminally inadmissible, you have to submit the details about your offence, type of conviction, where it happened, police clearances etc. Make sure you paid the correct fees, as incorrect fees may cause further delay in your application.

The officer must be satisfied of the following:

You have financial means to support yourself
You have ties to your home country
You will be returning home (attaching a copy of the return ticket may be a good idea)
You are not likely to commit a crime, if you were inadmissible due to criminality.
If you have any questions about how to get a TRP or about the documentation requirements, you can contact us, and our team of experience professionals will be happy to help you.

The Department of Immigration and Border Protection (DIBP) in Australia is celebrating its 70th anniversary

The Department of Immigration and Border Protection (DIBP) in Australia is celebrating its 70th anniversary, with the publication of a history of its challenges and aims since 1945.

It was initially just called the Department of Immigration when it was established by Ben Chifley, Australia’s 16th Prime Minister in July 1945, at a time when Australia had a population of just seven million people and was emerging from World War II.

AUSTRALIAgovt
The Australian DIBP is celebrating its 70th anniversary this year
The new Minister for Immigration, Arthur Calwell, promoted the concept ‘populate or perish’ and took over all the functions of the immigration branch of the Department of the Interior.

With many immigration branch personnel still on active service, the Department began with just 24 officers, six in Canberra, six in Melbourne and 12 in London.

‘If Australians have learned one lesson from the Pacific War, it is surely that we cannot continue to hold our island continent for ourselves and our dependants, unless we greatly increase our numbers,’ Calwell said in his first ministerial statement to the Federal Parliament in August 1945.

Since then the Department has facilitated the permanent entry of more than seven million people from around the globe to form one of the world’s most linguistically, culturally and religiously diverse nations.

‘Australia came out of World War II with the belief that we needed to increase our population to avoid the threat of invasion. Over the coming years, thousands of mostly European migrants would come to our shores, bringing with them a variety of languages, cuisine and culture and signalling the start of the diverse nation we live in today,’ said DIBP Secretary, Michael Pezzullo.

He explained that since then, the Department has played a significant role in continuing to build the nation through managed migration, and citizenship. ‘Our Department has managed the permanent migration of more than seven million people, including over 800 000 refugees,’ he said.

‘In addition, we have facilitated a significant contribution to the Australian economy through our temporary entrant and student visa programmes,’ he added.

The Department recently added a new focus on border protection to its many other important responsibilities, with the amalgamation of the immigration and customs functions and the establishment of the new integrated Department and the Australian Border Force.

‘We will continue to be a key contributor in our inclusive, multicultural democracy while maintaining the integrity of Australia’s borders,’ Pezzullo concluded.

Singapore's new immigration policy makes work permits tougher for Indian workers with middle-level skills

The recent National Day Rally speech by Singapore's Prime Minister Lee Hsien Loong, where he talked about tightening of norms for foreign workers with middle-level skills, has raised concerns over Singapore removing the welcome mat for Indians.

"The middle, the lower middle level - foreigners are here, many on employment pass. Singaporeans are working - they are probably graduates or diploma holders, not hard up, not unskilled but not so confident of themselves that they are ready for unrestrained competition... I think at this middle level, we need to tighten a little bit further," is what the Singapore Prime Minister said in his speech.

The policy announcement is seen as the first step to rein in the unchecked inflow of foreign workers and to address the concern of the local workforce. The expats in Singapore are, in fact, not very surprised over the announcement since the government had warned about tougher immigration norms. Further, there are likely to be more changes in the policy requirements for foreign workers in the coming months.

Tougher for the Mid-segment

Under the new rules, the details of which have been unveiled by Singapore's ministry of manpower, starting January 2012, foreigners seeking employment in Singapore, in certain categories, will find it tougher to get work permits. The changes will apply to Q1 pass holders, which is the lowest category of employment passes, who have to earn at least S$3,000, up from the current S$2,800. The qualifying salary for P2 employment pass will go up from S$4,000 to S$4,500.

So is there reason for Indians to worry? "We can expect a moderate impact on Indian workers who apply under the Q1 and P2 categories. These are middle-level professional, managerial, engineering and technical talents. Although accurate figures are not available, Indians do comprise a significant portion of the foreign talent in this segment," says Satish Bakhda, manager with Rikvin Group, a firm which specialises in immigration and visa services.

However, typically, workers from India come with better qualifications and complement the local talent; therefore they command a relatively better salary. "The objective of the change in regulations is to tighten the eligibility requirements for entering lower and mid-level jobs. The more stringent requirements will include better educational qualifications and higher qualifying salaries. This will eventually have positive impact on the economy of Singapore," says Vijay Bajaj, principal, Positive Moves Consulting, an HR and executive search firm.

The changes are also likely to impact small and medium enterprises. With global slowdown already affecting many of them, the minimum salary threshold, will push up wage cost. Indian companies in Singapore, apart from employing significant number of local workers also employ foreign workers, especially from India.

Small companies like those engaged in trading or services with less than 10 employees are likely to tighten their recruitment process. Nina Alag Suri, president & CEO of executive search company Nastrac Group, doesn't see the new rules making a very big difference for highly skilled Indian workers.

"The Singapore government is being more selective than before in granting employment permits to foreigners and their requirements have been made more stringent with regards to education qualifications, type of college/university, experience etc. If a company feels the person has the required skills, the additional salary requirement is not going to be a deal breaker," she says. For now, the highly skilled professionals from India - especially in the IT and banking sectors - probably don't have a reason to worry.

Immigration Rules Changed For New-Zealand-PM

The Government is not sure how many migrants will settle outside of Auckland as a result of its announced change in immigration policy.

Under the change skilled migrants and entrepreneurs will get even more points towards residency if they agree to live in the regions.
For entrepreneurs their bonus points will double from 20 to 40, while for skilled immigrants it will go up from 10 to 30 if they set up a business or accept a job offer outside Auckland.
Under the current rules if skilled migrants get 140 points they automatically get residency.
It would also double the points for entrepreneurs planning to set up a business in the regions under the Entrepreneur Work Visa from 20 to 40 points.
In a further move the Government intends streamlining the labour market test to provide more certainty to employers seeking to bring skilled migrants into the country.
Prime Minister John Key announced the policy at the National Party's annual conference in Auckland.
Mr Key told the conference many mayors around the country had told him their regions could not attract the workers their businesses needed.
He told reporters the Government could not be sure how many migrants might move elsewhere as a result of the policy but it was likely to be effective.
"There's no question that for some people they will now look at what's on offer in New Zealand and they'll say 'it's an easier pathway if I want to go to the regions than if I want to park myself in Auckland'."
Immigration Minister Michael Woodhouse said many new migrants settled in Auckland which faced many challenges providing enough infrastructure. At the same time many employers in other parts of the country often struggled to find enough skilled workers.
But Mr Woodhouse said New Zealanders would always be first in line for jobs.
Mr Key also responded to worries about the economy, saying it was well-placed to deal with the global challenges.
He said many sectors were performing strongly, with exports boosted by the lower valued New Zealand dollar.
Residency offer for South Island workers
In another immigration initiative Mr Key said the Government intended providing an opportunity for a limited number of people on temporary work visas in the South Island to apply for residency.
He said these people and their families had been in New Zealand for a number of years.
Mr Key said about 600 overseas workers in lower-skilled occupations in the South Island had had their visas rolled over for more than 5 years.
The Government intended offering residency to these people, who commit to regions in the South Island where they have put down roots.
He said detailed policy on this change would be released early next year.
PM defends Trans-Pacific Partnership negotiations
During his speech Mr Key also defended the Trans-Pacific Partnership negotiations, saying a deal would get New Zealand access to the big markets of Japan and the United States.
"This is something that successive governments in New Zealand of both stripes have been actively pursuing for many years. That's because it will mean better deals for Kiwi producers and exporters, better access to world markets and better prospects for growing those markets in the future."
Mr Key said the trans-Pacific trade deal would also be good for jobs and incomes in New Zealand.
He criticised the Labour Party, which has put a number of conditions on whether it would support the TPP, saying Labour no longer knew what it stood for.
Mr Key said National remained committed to running an open economy through embracing free trade and immigration.

Immigration Rules for Non-EU Students in UK

The United Kingdom’s immigration rules for non-EU students are getting tougher by the day. Some of the new immigration rules will come into force from August 3rd  2015 and others from November 12th 2015.  These rules will significantly affect the lives of non-EU students in UK. Their restrictive approach towards non-European students will not let them stay in UK beyond the duration of their course.

Who Will Be Affected?

The new immigration rules target the Tire 4 students studying at the publicly funded further education colleges. Moreover, the students at the privately funded further education colleges are likely to receive similar treatment. UK home secretary Theresa May declared that these immigration rules will also extend to students who are not part of the European Economic Area.

This one is again for students on Tire 4 Student Visa. These new immigration rules are awaiting an approval from UK’s Members of Parliament this week. From November 12 this year, all the students willing to work in UK, must leave the country and only then apply for a Tire 2 or Tire 5 working visas.

The Rules Will Restrict Courses Too!

This is to reduce the inconvenience caused to Tire 4 students and bring down the number of overseas skilled workers employed in UK. From the 3rd of August this year, Tire 4 students will have the permission to study only those courses that are linked to their previous course. Further, the course duration is also reduced from 3 years to 2 years.

For The Families Of Non Eu/Eea Students…

The immigration rules also target the families of non EU Tire 4 students. The family members of such students can take up only skilled jobs. This is to restrict those people who come to work in low skilled jobs. However, UK’s new immigration rules have been severely criticized by School of Oriental and African Studies university director Paul Webley.

He said, “students who stay on after they finish their studies develop very strong links with the UK, and so have an understanding of and affinity for the UK that is of great long term benefit for the country.”

Spousal Sponsorship Refused?

The reasons for which your spousal sponsorship can be refused are many, some of the most common ones could be, that you were not able to show you had the solvency to support the person you were sponsoring, that you had bankruptcy and have not been discharged yet or you were on government assistance for other reasons and not disability. One major reason that happens many times is that legitimacy of the relationship is questionable, meaning that the relationship/marriage is believed not to be honest or true.

If your sponsorship was refused you do have the right to an appeal. After 30 days of receiving the notice of refusal, which has the written reasons as to why the application was refused, you can file for an appeal.

However, you will be denied the right to appeal, if the reasons why your sponsorship was refused are any of the following:

• The person being sponsor has a criminal record for a violation of human or international rights

• If they have a criminal record for a crime that in Canada would be punished with at least two years in jail ( i.e. Robbery with a fire arm)

• if he or she have been known to participate in organized Crime

If the reasons given to you by Citizenship and Immigration Canada are not the ones above, then you are allowed to exercise your right to an appeal.

TEMPORARY RESIDENT PERMIT CANADA

Overcome Denial Of Entry to Canada

TEMPORARY RESIDENT PERMIT CANADA

There are a number of reasons that you may be denied entry to Canada:

Criminal Inadmissibility like DUI or DWI
Medical Inadmissibility
Non-Compliance
These are just a few of the reasons you might be denied entry. For most, it usually comes as a shock. Thousands of people cross the border into Canada on a daily basis, for some, it is a routine experience at the border. For others, they are faced with the harsh reality that an Officer at the border has determined they are inadmissible.
Whether or not you are aware of your inadmissibility or whether you have never had an issue in the past before, being considered inadmissible to Canada is not something that you can escape or reattempt the next day. In situations such as these, there are basically three ways to overcome this inadmissibility; a Temporary Resident Permit or an Application for Criminal Rehabilitation.

U.K News-Overseas students should leave U.K. once they complete studies

 The British government would like to see overseas students who come to Britain to study in its world class universities leave as soon as they finish their courses — and not stay back to work or settle.

In an interview to BBC Radio 4 on Friday, Business Secretary Sajid Javid said that he would like to “break the link” between study and settlement of overseas students.

“What we do have is an immigration system that allows those who want to study in world class universities to come here,” he said. “We’ve also got to have a system that doesn’t allow any abuse, where people are using the right to study as a way to achieve settlement in Britain. We have to break the link. We should allow people [to come] here who want to study, and once they have completed [their studies] they leave.”

Indian students are second only to China amongst non-EU overseas students in higher education in the U.K. Rising tuition fees and an unfriendly visa system have seen the numbers drop.

Between 2012/13 and 2013/14, student numbers from India have fallen from 18525 to 16480; the same period saw Chinese student numbers rise from 69970 to 74020.

The revoking of the post-study work visa was a major deterrent for Indian students. Unlike their Chinese counterparts who usually come on Chinese Government scholarships, must take substantial loans to study here.

The British government’s immigration policy for students has been criticised by educationists, including by India born Nobel Prize winner Venkatraman Ramakrishnan. At a conference in London recently, Sir Leszek Borysiewicz, Vice-Chancellor of Cambridge University, who is of Polish extract descent, said the U.K.’s visa regime is “one of the biggest threats” to the U.K.’s higher education system. He referred to the fall in the numbers of Indian and Pakistani applicants for Tier-4 Student visas, saying that between 2011 and 2012 applications to U.K. universities by Indian and Pakistani students fell by 38 per cent and 62 per cent respectively.

Dominic Scott, Chief Executive of U.K. Council for International Student Affairs told The Hindu: “We are obviously very concerned about the remarks. If they mean that those who come to the U.K. to study should not stay on permanently and settle, then many might perhaps agree with him — although there is no evidence that significant numbers do.

“If they mean that well qualified students should not continue to be able to apply for Tier-2 jobs and Tier-2 visas in the U.K., having satisfied the current criteria, then this would obviously be extremely damaging and seems to go against everything the Prime Minister has said, in India and elsewhere, about the opportunities for students with graduate job offers to stay on for a short period after their studies.”
