MINISTER PROPOSES NEW REGULATIONS FOR IMMIGRATION CONSULTANTS - December 19, 2003
The Honourable Judy Sgro, Minister of Citizenship and Immigration Canada (CIC), today announced proposed changes to the Immigration and Refugee Protection Regulations pre-published in Part I of the Canada Gazette on December 13, 2003.
Should these regulations come into effect, the Government of Canada will only communicate with fee-charging representatives if they are members in good standing of the Canadian Society of Immigration Consultants (CSIC) or a provincial or territorial law society. CSIC is the new independent, self-regulating body for immigration consultants that was incorporated on October 8, 2003 .
"I am proposing these regulations to encourage immigration consultants to become members of CSIC," said Minister Sgro. "It is our hope that CSIC will give clients of CIC and the Immigration and Refugee Board (IRB) access to an accredited, qualified and ethical immigration consultant, while giving them a recourse mechanism if their consultant behaves unscrupulously."
The purpose of the proposed amendments is to define which representatives may or may not represent, advise or consult with a person in a proceeding before the IRB or in applying with CIC.
CIC and IRB clients are not obliged to hire a consultant or lawyer. However, should these regulations come into effect, people choosing to do so must engage a consultant or lawyer as defined by the new regulations. Under the proposed regulations, as of April 2004, clients who hire a representative who is not authorized would have their applications returned by CIC. Similarly, clients appearing before the IRB would be treated as unrepresented.
A client who has already hired a representative and submitted an application to CIC before April 2004 may continue to use the services of that representative until April 2008. Likewise, IRB clients who are already involved in proceedings may also continue to use the services of their representatives until April 2008.
Pre-publication provides a 30-day period for all Canadians to comment on he proposed regulations. Following pre-publication, the comments of stakeholders, parliamentarians and other interested parties will be considered and the regulations will be revised as necessary. The regulations will then be submitted for final government approval and published in their final form in Part II of the Canada Gazette prior to coming into force.
"The pre-publication of proposed regulations is an important part of the regulatory process and is the next step toward ensuring a fully self-regulating immigration consultant industry by April 2004," said the Minister.
GOVERNMENT ANNOUNCES CREATION OF A SELF-REGULATING BODY FOR IMMIGRATION CONSULTANTS - October 31, 2003
The Honourable Denis Coderre, Minister of Citizenship and Immigration Canada (CIC), today announced the creation of the Canadian Society of Immigration Consultants (CSIC), a new, independent and self-regulating body for immigration consultants. The CSIC was incorporated on October 8, 2003 .
"By April 2004, the Canadian Society of Immigration Consultants will be in a position to provide protection to vulnerable applicants, while enhancing public confidence in the Canadian immigration program," said Minister Coderre. "I am very pleased with the progress we've made to date."
In October 2002, the Minister appointed an advisory committee to provide recommendations for his consideration. The Report of the Advisory Committee on Regulating Immigration Consultants was submitted in May 2003 following extensive consultations with organizations, institutions and individuals with expertise in providing immigration advice and services.
The recommendations of the report centred on the creation of a self-regulating body. In response, the Minister established, within CIC, the Secretariat on Regulating Immigration Consultants to implement the key recommendations, including the development of an action plan outlining a process to bring this new body into existence.
The Secretariat will also work closely with CSIC by providing advice and support to meet the April 2004 deadline. In addition, CSIC's first board of directors has already begun the work required to make CSIC fully operational.
"Our board is composed of people with consumer protection, professional regulation and consulting experience. It represents the diversity of the Canadian population and our clientele so that a variety of concerns will be addressed," said Benjamin Trister, Chair of the CSIC board.
After an initial term of two years, the Board will consist mainly of immigration consultants elected by members. Some individuals will be appointed by the Minister.
The incorporation of CSIC on October 8 was the first step in fulfilling Minister Coderre's vision of a fully regulated immigration consultant industry.
As of April 2004, the Immigration and Refugee Protection Regulations will be amended. Thereafter, CIC and the Immigration and Refugee Board will conduct business with representatives who charge fees for services only if they are members in good standing of CSIC or a provincial or territorial law society.
"No one is obliged to hire an immigration consultant," said Minister Coderre. "However, for individuals who do, we want to make sure that the consultants meet the standards for knowledge, service quality and accountability."
