After the proposed transitional period elapses, can an immigration consultant who is a CSIC member and has not yet registered with the ICCRC submit applications to CIC on their client’s behalf?
Following the transition period, any CSIC member – in good standing at the time of the ICCRC’s designation on June 30, 2011 – who has yet to register with the ICCRC will no longer be recognized. The immigration consultant would therefore not be authorized to represent or advise a person – or even offer to do so – for consideration in connection with a proceeding or application under the Immigration and Refugee Protection Act.
