🎙️ Podcast Episode: A Costly Immigration Mistake You Can’t Afford to Make
In today’s episode, we break down the Federal Court’s decision in Fashina v. Canada (2025 FC 1237) — a case that shows how one missing document can cost you your entire shot at Canadian permanent residency.
👶 A newborn child wasn’t included in a Provincial Nominee Program (PNP) application — and that single omission led to a full refusal. Not because the applicant was unqualified, but because the application was incomplete.
💥 Here’s what you need to know:
Immigration officers are not required to follow up for missing documents.
If your application isn’t 100% complete, it will be returned or refused — no exceptions.
There’s no second chance once a decision is made.
📌 Whether you're applying through Alberta PNP, Ontario PNP, or another PNP stream, this is a must-listen for:
Entrepreneurs and business owners applying through the Provincial Nominee Program
Anyone using a PNP points calculator or preparing to submit a PR application
Applicants under Start-Up Visa, C11, or Express Entry linked PNPs
âś…Â Key Takeaways for Business Immigration Applicants:
Always include documents for every family member — even newborns
Do not submit your application until it’s fully complete
Hire a professional to review your package before submission
🎯 In Canadian immigration, perfection is not optional — it’s the standard.
