A family of four was cleared of inadmissibility findings after the Federal Court found that their immigration consultants’ negligence caused a miscarriage of justice.
The family faced a five-year misrepresentation bar after their consultants filed a work permit application under the owner-operator LMIA category nearly two years after that category had been eliminated.
The consultants did not tell the principal applicant that the category no longer existed. He gave sworn evidence that he would not have filed the application had he known that he was ineligible.
The legal challenge showed that the consultants’ negligence affected the result and undermined the fairness of the process, satisfying both branches of the miscarriage of justice test.
The Federal Court quashed the inadmissibility findings against the principal applicant and all three dependants.
