The Good Character requirement does not have a clear definition. However, there are some instances in which a refusal is likely. These are:
- prior criminal convictions, unless 3 years have passed;
- deception or dishonesty, including deception in a current or previous immigration application which will result in the applicant being barred from another application for 10 years; and
- failure to comply with immigration laws, including illegal entry, overstaying, and illegal working.
If you have been refused an application previously on grounds of Good Character, speak to us today.
