ca Extension Deadline for Review of Immigration Regulations in Canada

According to the new decision of the Canadian Federal Court, the deadline for submitting a judicial request in immigration cases has increased from 7 days to 7 days. The decision, which has been implemented on May 5, gives applicants more opportunity to prepare and complete the documents.

📌 Who involves this change?

All applicants whose cases have not yet been reviewed by the court are subject to this new law.

📈 Why was this decision made?

Given the dramatic increase in the number of judicial review requests in years 1 and 2, this action has been taken to better manage the time of handling and prevent more accumulation of cases.

1. Authorization request (leave)
2. Judicial Review (Judicial Review)

According to the new rules, applicants have 7 days after the initial registration to submit their full documents and arguments to the court. This deadline is calculated from one of the following dates:
