Earlier this month, CILA wrote a letter to the College of Immigration and Citizenship Consultants (CICC) to share concerns on unlicensed consultants offering immigration services in Canada.<\/p>\n

Rule 13(2) of the Codes of Professional Conduct of the College of Immigration and Citizenship Consultants (CICC) allows Regulated Canadian Immigration Consultants (RCICs) to pay for an \u201cagent who solicits clients for a licensee if the licensee registers the agent\u2019s name with the College in advance.\u201d This rule raises a wide range of ethical, legal and integrity issues.<\/p>\n

CILA requests that CICC:<\/p>\n

1. Repeal Rule 13(2) of the CICC Code of Conduct to protect RCICs and clients from those acting outside the scope of section 91 of IRPA and engaging in offering unregulated services through agents. The removal of Rule 13(2) would also make the Codes of Professional Conduct of the CICC more consistent with those of the Canadian law societies; and<\/p>\n

2. Strictly discipline RCICs who collaborate and facilitate work with unlicensed agents, thereby allowing the agents to directly or indirectly provide Canadian immigration services to the public.<\/p>\n
