Many visa and work permit refusals are the result of incomplete evidence or officer misunderstanding.
In certain cases, applicants can submit a Reconsideration Request — a formal letter asking IRCC to review the refusal decision.
A Reconsideration Request is possible when the refusal was based on:
- Missing or misinterpreted documents
- Incorrect assessment of your purpose of visit
- Officer oversight on financial or employment evidence
- Misapplication of the Immigration and Refugee Protection Regulations (IRPR)
A strong Reconsideration Letter must include:
- Clear summary of your case
- Reference to refusal reasons
- Explanation supported by IRPR or case law
- Updated or clarifying documents (if applicable)
At Aslani Immigration, we help clients prepare strong Reconsideration Requests supported by case law, regulations, and detailed legal submissions.
We analyze your refusal letter line by line and craft a personalized explanation for the reviewing officer.
Timing is critical — the request should be submitted within a reasonable period after the refusal (ideally within 30 days).
Book a 30-minute eligibility review to determine if your case qualifies for reconsideration.
