A primary reason why a majority of people worldwide are prevented from entering Canada is their inadmissibility to the country. When an individual is found to be inadmissible, their visa application or eTA (Electronic Travel Authorization) is immediately denied.
Some common reasons you may be declared inadmissible to Canada include the following:
Security Reasons
Canada is considered, one of the world’s safest places to travel because of its strict security laws and a higher quality of life. Security issues that may have someone counted as inadmissible to the country include indulgence in subversion, terrorism, violence, espionage, or membership in an association involved in such practices.
Human Rights Violation’s
Another important reason why you may be declared as inadmissible is involvement in any activity that violates international human rights, such as engagement in a war crime, committing a crime against humanity, being a senior officer at a country’s government that’s involved in questionable human rights violations.
Crime
Some other crimes such as DUI (Driving under Influence), taking part in an organized crime or being a member of an organization that participates in money laundering or smuggling may also have you declared as inadmissible.
Medical Conditions
If an individual has a medical condition that may affect public health or jeopardize public safety, they can also be declared inadmissible to the country. Also, if their medical condition is expected to bring a drastic surge to Canada’s health or social services, they can become inadmissible.
Financial Circumstances
If the person trying to sponsor their spouse or a family member, doesn’t have sufficient income and is unable to support them after they arrive, the IRCC doesn’t accept their sponsorship application.
