I want to thank Christian Julien for the wonderful work he did for me and my family. He is a very intelligent, transparent and dedicated person in his work. Without a doubt, he is the best.

Merit Garcia

From the day my family and I started working with Christian Julian on our complicated immigration process, he has been humble, attentive and kind in dealing with our case. Christian is always responsive and goes above and beyond to help us understand the complicated immigration process and other regulations that had an impact on our case. With Christian, we always felt safe and very well taken care of! Our application for PR and then spousal sponsorship was processed with a great deal of attention to detail and extra care. The applications that were submitted were thorough and were never returned or delayed due to missing information/ documents or incorrectly filled forms. We cannot thank him enough for his diligence and professionalism!

I highly recommend Kingwell Immigration Law firm for any immigration-related legal representation anyone may require in Canada.

Nisan G. Woldeabzghi

Our immigration case was rather peculiar. But, having been introduced to Daniel Kingwell at a later stage in the process, we have had nothing but outstanding, professional help in all our legal matters. The knowledge of Mr. Kingwell regarding immigration matters is second to none, and his team is truly amazing. Not only is Mr. Kingwell’s knowledge and experience extremely extensive, but how he makes his clients feel at ease is beyond anything that we have had the experience of dealing with (having met a whole tranche of lawyers, I can safely testify to that). I would recommend Mr. Kingwell for all immigration-related matters.

Haseeb A Virk

Thank you Daniel for doing a great job!!! My student visa application was refused two times and the Embassy ignored my third request too. Honestly, I was hopeless in 2019 and could not even imagine that someday the court would grant leave and my passport would have a visa on it. Everything happened because of Daniel Kingwell who prepared the best arguments and defended my case with great professionalism. I am so grateful for your support Daniel. I would recommend your firm to everyone who needs legal services because you guys deserve to be appreciated!

Who Needs a Deportation Lawyer in Canada?

Our Canada deportation lawyer will help individuals facing removal from Canada due to legal, immigration, or humanitarian concerns. If you are at risk of deportation, seeking legal help immediately can improve your chances of staying in Canada.

Who Needs Us.

Permanent Residents Facing Removal

You may be at risk of deportation due to criminal charges, failure to meet residency obligations, or misrepresentation in your immigration application.

Foreign Nationals Without Status

If you have overstayed your visa, violated immigration conditions, or entered Canada without proper documentation, you may need legal representation to challenge your removal order.

Refugees or Asylum Seekers with Denied Claims

If your refugee claim has been rejected, you may need to appeal to the Refugee Appeal Division (RAD) or apply for a Pre-Removal Risk Assessment (PRRA) to stay in Canada.

Individuals Facing Deportation Due to Criminal Convictions

If you have been convicted of a crime in Canada, you may need to apply for Criminal Rehabilitation or Ministerial Relief to avoid removal.

People Seeking Humanitarian & Compassionate (H&C) Relief

If you have strong family ties in Canada, a medical condition, or other exceptional circumstances, you may be eligible to apply for H&C relief to prevent deportation.

Previously Deported Individuals Seeking to Return

If you have been removed from Canada and want to return, you may need to apply for an Authorization to Return to Canada (ARC).

Client Success Stories

Past Cases.

After appealing to the Federal Court, PRRA applicants from Israel reconsidered.

Pre-Removal Risk Assessment applicants from Israel. The applicants claimed to be at risk as an Arab-Israeli LGBT couple. IRCC rejected their PRRA application. We successfully appealed the decision to the Federal Court on the basis that the officer had refused to consider a news report of an “honour killing” in their family. The Court ordered IRCC to reconsider the application.

Musa v Minister of Citizenship and Immigration (2012 FC 298)

A study permit applicant from Iran has application reconsidered by IRCC after an appeal to the Federal Court.

Study permit applicant from Iran. IRCC rejected her application finding that her study plan was not logical in light of her education history. We successfully appealed to the Federal Court, arguing that the reasons were insufficient to justify the decision, and the application was sent back to IRCC for reconsideration.

M.M. v Minister of Citizenship and Immigration (2022 FC 1098)

Refugee Protection Division ordered to redetermine refugee claim from Albania because of wrongful criminal conviction.

Refugee claimant from Albania. For a decade, he fought his case with the Minister at the Refugee Protection Division, who argued that he should be excluded from protection because of a criminal conviction. We successfully appealed the decision to the Federal Court on the basis that he was wrongfully convicted in his absence, and the RPD was ordered to redetermine his claim.

Doresi v Minister of Public Safety and Emergency Preparedness (2022 FC 1300)

Study Permit application from Albania reconsidered by IRCC after appeals to the Federal Court.

Citizen from Albania applying for a study permit. IRCC rejected it, stating that her study plan was not reasonable given her education history. She requested reconsideration which IRCC also rejected. We appealed both decisions to the Federal Court and overturned the rejection, the Court agreeing that the officer had ignored her explanation that the course of studies was more specialized than her previous education and necessary for her career advancement. IRCC was required to reconsider her study permit application.

D.G. v Minister of Citizenship and Immigration (2021 FC 1468)

Conjugal partner PR application rejected by IAD returned to IRCC for processing after appeal to the Federal Court.

Overseas sponsorship of conjugal partner from Saudi Arabia. IRCC refused the application on the basis that they did not meet the requirements of conjugal partnership, and the Immigration Appeal Division rejected their appeal. We represented them on appeal to the Federal Court, and the judge overturned the decision, agreeing that the officer and IAD had improperly considered their individual and relationship histories. Their PR application was returned to IRCC for processing.

A.H. v Minister of Citizenship and Immigration (2020 FC 530)

Legal Consequences of Deportation

A deportation order carries serious legal consequences, which may include:

Consequences We Help You Avoid.

Bans on Re-Entry

Depending on the type of removal order, individuals may be barred from returning to Canada for one year, multiple years, or permanently.

Permanent Inadmissibility

Those deported due to criminal activity, misrepresentation, or security concerns may be permanently barred from re-entering Canada unless granted special permission.

Family Separation & Loss of Status

Deportation can separate families and cause individuals to lose their work, study, or residency status in Canada.

If you are in any of these situations, time is critical. Contact Kingwell Immigration Law today to discuss your options and fight for your right to stay in Canada.

Types of Removal Orders & Legal Consequences

When a person is ordered to leave Canada, they receive one of the following removal orders, each with different legal consequences. Understanding your removal order is essential in determining your legal options and possible appeals.

We Are Experts In....

Departure Orders

Requires the individual to leave Canada within 30 days and notify the Canada Border Services Agency (CBSA) of their departure. If they comply, they may return to Canada in the future without special permission. If they fail to leave within 30 days, the order automatically becomes a Deportation Order.

Exclusion Orders

Prevents the individual from returning to Canada for 1 to 2 years, depending on the reason for removal. In some cases, an Authorization to Return to Canada (ARC) is required before re-entry.

Deportation Orders

The most severe type of removal order, permanently banning the individual from returning to Canada unless they obtain special permission through an Authorization to Return to Canada (ARC) application.

Humanitarian & Compassionate Grounds Appeals

Individuals facing deportation may apply for relief based on exceptional circumstances, such as strong family ties in Canada, medical conditions, or risks in their home country. A successful Humanitarian & Compassionate (H&C) application may allow the person to stay in Canada despite a removal order.

Legal Defences Against Deportation

Deportation does not have to be final—there are legal avenues to challenge, delay, or overturn removal orders. With the right legal strategy, you may be able to remain in Canada and secure your immigration status.

Defences We Employ.

1. Immigration Appeal Division (IAD) Appeals

Permanent residents may appeal removal if it is based on criminality, failure to meet residency obligations, or misrepresentation.
Sponsorship refusals can also be appealed if a family member is facing removal.

2. Federal Court Judicial Reviews & Stays of Removal

If a deportation order was unfairly decided, we can file a Judicial Review in Federal Court to challenge the ruling.
In urgent cases, we apply for a Stay of Removal, which temporarily halts deportation while the case is reviewed.

3. Pre-Removal Risk Assessment (PRRA) Applications

If deportation puts you at risk of persecution, torture, or serious harm, you may qualify for PRRA protection.
PRRA is available to asylum seekers and individuals facing danger in their home country.

4. Humanitarian & Compassionate (H&C) Applications

If you have strong family ties in Canada, medical conditions, or other compelling reasons to stay, you may qualify for H&C relief.
Factors considered include hardship upon return, establishment in Canada, and risks to your well-being.

5. Ministerial Relief for Criminal Inadmissibility

If you are facing deportation due to a criminal record, we can apply for Ministerial Relief or Criminal Rehabilitation to remove your inadmissibility status.

6. Authorization to Return to Canada (ARC) Applications

If you have already been deported, you may need to apply for an Authorization to Return to Canada (ARC) before being allowed back into the country.
We assist in preparing strong legal arguments and supporting documentation to improve your chances of approval.
