Please quote these reference numbers when referring to this application.

Dear CAROLYNE, JERUTO:

This is in reference to your application for a temporary residence visa to Canada (Visitor)

I have reviewed your application and documents you submitted in its support. Subsection 11(1) of the
Immigration and Refugee Protection Act provides that a foreign national must, before entering Canada,
apply to an officer for a visa or any other document required by the Regulations. The visa or document shall
be issued if, following an examination, the officer is satisfied that the foreign national is not inadmissible
and meets the requirements of this Act.

I have reasonable grounds to believe that you have not fulfilled the requirement put upon you by section
16(1) of the Immigration and Refugee Protection Act, which states:

16(1) a person who makes an application must answer truthfully all questions put to them for
the purpose of the examination and must produce a visa and all relevant evidence and
documents that the officer reasonably requires.

Specifically,

Pursuant to paragraph 10(2)(c.1) of the Immigration and Refugee Protection Regulations:

10(2) The application shall, unless otherwise provided by these Regulations

…
(c.1) if the applicant is represented in connection with the application, include the name, postal
address and telephone number, and fax number and electronic mail address, if any, of any person
or entity — or a person acting on its behalf — representing the applicant

Based on your submissions, I have concerns that you have omitted to declare that you used a compensated
representative to facilitate the submission of your application. Your application contains evidence that it
was facilitated by the same person or entity as many other applications received by this office. Based on
our research, this is a compensated representative. I therefore have concerns that you misrepresented this
information either through omission or through failing to indicate that the representative was
compensated.

Omitting that you have used a representative is a material fact that may induce error in the administration
of the Act, including your immigration history.

Please note that if it is found that you have engaged in misrepresentation in submitting your application
for a temporary resident visa, you may be found to be inadmissible under section 40(1)(a) of the
Immigration and Refugee Protection Act. A finding of such inadmissibility would render you
inadmissible to Canada for a period of five years according to section 40(2)(a):

40(1) A permanent resident or a foreign national is inadmissible for misrepresentation

(a) for directly or indirectly misrepresenting or withholding material facts

relating to a relevant matter that induces or could induce an error in the
administration of this Act

40(2) The following provisions govern subsection (1):

(a) the permanent resident or the foreign national continues to be inadmissible for
misrepresentation for a period of five years following, in the case of a
determination outside Canada, a final determination of inadmissibility under
subsection (1) or, in the case of determination in Canada, the date the removal
order is enforced.

I would like to give you an opportunity to respond to this information. I will afford you 7 days from the
date of this letter to make any representations in this regard. If you do not respond to this request within
the time outlined above, your application will be refused.
