Fraud Under $5000 charges lawyer in Ontario, Canada

IRCC/Immigration consequences of Fraud Under $5000 charges in Canada

All forms of Fraud Under $5000 charges in Canada are potentially deportable offences because they carry a maximum possible sentence of 2 years in prison.

People from all different backgrounds and countries get charged with fraud under $5000 in Canada. Since Ontario and particularly the GTHA has a very high immigrant population many of those who are charged are in the IRCC immigration process. They are often tourists, students, on work permits, PR applicants and those who have PR status. If the accused who gets charged (receives a Form 9 Appearance Notice or Form 10 Undertaking) is not a Canadian Citizen the fraud charges may lead to them being deported and deemed inadmissible to enter Canada in the future.

In addition, since Canadian law enforcement shares their police databases (such as CPIC and local police records) with other countries including the United States, the United Kingdom, Australia/New Zealand, and some European Union countries, the fraud charges may cause problems for the accused travelling or immigrating to those countries as well in the future.

IRCC has access to CPIC, which compiles police data throughout Canada and checks this database for criminal profiles when processing applications

Just like when someone crosses the border and CBSA checks for a history of criminality, the IRCC also has access to police databases such as CPIC and checks them when deciding to approve or deny an application.

Since fraud under $5000 charges carry a possible sentence of 2 years in prison this means the outcome of the case will determine the fate of the applicant's status. As such, getting the best possible result in the case is extremely important for the immigrant’s IRCC status and future applications to be successful.

Immigrants to Canada who are charged with fraud under or over $5000 must do everything possible to avoid getting a criminal record and going to jail.

This includes those charged with shoplifting related frauds like switching a price tag or making a false return and those who get charged for incidents involving their employer (Home Depot, Wal-Mart, Amazon, Superstore, etc.). Case results are for the most part permanent and therefore having a lawyer defend the charges from the very beginning is paramount.

Our lawyer represents clients from all over the world who get charged with fraud and helps them prevent problems with their immigration IRCC status.

This includes immigrants from India, China, Philippines, Nigeria and more. Just because you get charged with fraud does not mean you will ultimately be deported and denied future entry. If you have received a Form 9 Appearance Notice or a Form 10 Undertaking for fraud under or over $5000 the most important thing you can do to prevent problems is to hire a lawyer immediately to start working on your case.

Sometimes options and immigration applications are time sensitive so it is always best to consult with and hire a lawyer as soon as possible.
