The applicant sought judicial review of a decision refusing her work permit application for misrepresentation under s. 40(1)(a) of the IRPA.
The applicant failed to disclose that her US visa had been previously cancelled, answering negatively when asked if she had ever been refused a visa or denied entry to any country.
The Federal Court found the decision reasonable, noting that omitting the cancellation of a US visa can qualify as misrepresentation when it is not an innocent mistake.
The application for judicial review was dismissed.
