Hi - I wonder if anyone can help...
I just collected my visa yesterday (after 30 months!).
It´s a conditional Entrepreneur Visa, and I´m a UK citizen.
The application was dealt with under the new IRPA regs.
When I looked at the pack they gave me, the accompanying documentation said that I needed to prove my business etc. within Two years of landing. This seems to be from the old act, as the IRPA act clearly gives you Three years.
I queried this at the desk, and was told it was OK, and it would be sorted out when I land.
However, the actual immigration papers are stickered with ´Condition 70´, which, according to the CIC website is consistent with the two year, pre-IRPA rule.
Is this right?
I definitely was dealt with under IRPA, and have letters to prove, so it seems strange that pre-imigration I had to satisfy under the stricter IRPA, and then post-immigration I have to be dealt with under the stricter pre-IRPA conditions.
I know that CIC seem to have very little info or training on IRPA cases - confirmed when I met with them in Vancouver last month - so is this just a mistake?
Any help gratefully received!
