CANADA IMMIGRATION IS FLAGGING VISITORS FROM EAST CARIBBEAN CBI STATES



A senior representative from Canada Immigration has advised that the agency is, as a matter of policy, flagging incoming traffic from Dominica, St Kitts & Nevis, Antigua & Barbuda, St Lucia and Grenada, all the East Caribbean states with active Citizenship by Investment programs. Canada is unable to determine who is or is not a CBI passport holder.

This action is due to the agency's concerns about the identities of CBI passport holders, who may have had a different name, place of birth, and/or date of birth entered into the passport than the correct information. Whether the passport photograph is of the holder, or has been swapped out from the photo originally attached in the East Caribbean are also concerns, based upon what they have been seeing.

The agency is also examining the names of relatives that the arrivals are purportedly visiting, and the other visa data, to insure that the holder of the passport is truly the individual listed therein.



Probing interviews (are they really interrogations ?) occur after the arrival is detained. and often involve extensive waiting time, until an interviewer is available. Given the denial many West Indians are exhibiting about the consequences of operating CBI programs with defective due diligence investigations of applicants, this information may give them a dose of reality, before they arrive and find they are now considered high-risk in Canada,
