When an immigration report is prepared against someone, it also applies to their family members who are in Canada. If a removal order follows, it can extend to those family members too, as long as they were properly notified and given a chance to respond.
(1)For the purposes of section 42 of the Act, a report prepared under subsection 44(1) of the Act against a foreign national is also a report against the foreign national’s family members in Canada.
(2)A removal order made by the Immigration Division against a foreign national is also a removal order against their family members in Canada to whom subsection (1) applies if (a)an officer informed the family members of the report, that they are the subject of an admissibility hearing and of their right to make submissions and be represented, at their own expense, at the admissibility hearing; and (b)the family members are subject to a decision of the Immigration Division that they are inadmissible under section 42 of the Act on grounds of the inadmissibility of the foreign national.
