Let's talk about maintaining your child's immigration status in Canada as a temporary resident.
I recently worked on a temporary residence permit for a client whose children had fallen out of status and the 90 days to restore had passed.
While I'm happy to share that it was a tool, but here's what made the case more complicated and what you need to learn from it.
The children had gone out of status and unfortunately the wrong applications, there were three of them, were submitted.
Instead of applying for a TRP, restoration application was filed.
The problem, they already had passed the 90 days restoration window.
If you lose your temporary residence status, you typically have up to 90 days to apply for restoration.
But once that 90 days restoration window has passed, restoration is no longer an option.
At that point, the only possible pathway to remain in Canada is to apply for a temporary residence permit.
Depending on the situation.
The bottom line here is missing deadlines and choosing the wrong application can have serious consequences.
But with the right strategy, solutions are still possible.
