About This Course

Immigration Law encompasses a broad array of issues. These issues may arise in the course of any practice, but often show up in Business Law, Criminal Law, and Family Law.

Failure to consider the impact of immigration issues in the context of other elements of a matter can have serious consequences, and every practitioner needs to recognize when immigration issues may be triggered.

Examples of Cross-Practice Immigration Issues

  • What are the consequences of a Canadian employer seeking to raise or lower a foreign worker’s salary?
  • What are the consequences of drafting a marriage agreement where one party has been sponsored by the other?
  • What are the consequences of accepting a seemingly favourable plea bargain in a criminal matter, where the accused is a permanent resident of Canada?

Led by immigration lawyers of various specialties, this panel will cover these topics and more!

For more than 135 years, the Toronto Lawyers' Association, located within the Courthouse Library, has represented the interests of lawyers practising in the City of Toronto. The association was founded to support its members in three key areas: Knowledge, Advocacy, and Community. To uphold these pillars, the association offers a year-round mix of online and in-person education programs for lawyers, hosts both free and paid events to foster in-person networking, and submits advocacy pieces on behalf of its members to the Ontario bench and bar, all levels of government, and the broader public.

Credit Information

Is this course eligible for my CPD requirements as a Canadian CPA?

Provincial regulators of CPAs in Canada do not require that independent providers of CPD be approved to offer courses. Instead, individual CPAs are responsible for assessing whether a CPD activity meets their requirements, and may take activities from any source provided those requirements are met.

Every course offered on LearnFormula is delivered by a qualified subject matter expert or learning organization, and advances learning objectives that are relevant to the responsibilities or professional competencies of Canadian CPAs. All activities on LearnFormula are quantifiable in terms of hours, and are also verifiable, in that users receive documented evidence of their attendance via a certificate of completion after finishing a course (and this certificate is stored by LearnFormula indefinitely). Nearly 100,000 Canadian CPAs successfully satisfy their CPD requirements via LearnFormula on an annual basis.
