Inadmissibility
Inadmissibility, in immigration terms, refers to the status of being unable to enter or be accepted into a country.

Regarding the categorization of crimes in Canada, there is a distinction between non-serious (light) and serious crimes based on the maximum prison sentence. Typically, crimes with a maximum sentence of less than 10 years are considered non-serious or light offenses.

If an individual meets the eligibility criteria, they can apply for Criminal Rehabilitation by submitting an application to the IRCC along with the required supporting documents and fees.
The fees for Criminal Rehabilitation vary depending on the nature and severity of the crime. It's important to note that the application process can be complex, and it is advisable to seek legal assistance or guidance to ensure the application is prepared correctly.
