Determine if you are inadmissible
Note: This information is for guidance and reference only. A decision on your admissibility can only be made when you apply to come to Canada or at a port of entry.

There are a number of reasons you can be found inadmissible, denied a visa or refused entry to Canada under IRPA, such as:
- security
- human or international rights violations
- criminality
- organized criminality
- health grounds
- financial reasons
- misrepresentation
- non-compliance with IRPA or
- having an inadmissible family member
More detailed explanation of the reasons for inadmissibility.
Normally, if you are inadmissible to Canada, you will not be allowed to enter. If you have a reason to travel to Canada that is justified in the circumstances, you may be issued a temporary resident permit.
If you have committed or been convicted of a crime, you have a few options.
If you have been convicted of driving while impaired by alcohol or drugs, you will probably be found criminally inadmissible to Canada. But as of March 1, 2012, you may be able to get a temporary resident permit for one visit without having to pay the C$200 processing fee. Find out more.
