In this Virtual Information Session, Peter Christensen from Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada (IRCC) discusses the complex topic of the differences between immigration information and immigration advice.
It is important for service providers to be aware of the scope of their role and the services they are legally allowed to provide in accordance with the provisions highlighted in Section 91 of the Immigration and Refugee Protection Act (IRPA). Peter Christensen clarifies the Settlement Worker’s role and boundaries in the provision of immigration supports and provides situational examples to illustrate the difference between information, advice and representation.
