Judicial review dismissed as officer reasonably interpreted temporary public policy for health care workers.
The applicants, unsuccessful refugee claimants, sought permanent residence under a temporary public policy for individuals working in the health care sector during the COVID-19 pandemic.
The immigration officer rejected the application because the principal applicant's health care experience included an unpaid training period with a private employer rather than an accredited vocational training program.
The Federal Court dismissed the application for judicial review, finding the officer's interpretation of the policy's internship requirements was reasonable and that there was no breach of procedural fairness.
