Hi all,
would like to get your opinion on my friends situation.
They are a US citizen previously charged with reckless driving the US(dui downgraded to reckless) in 2022. Probation finished early 2024.
They are a medical professional who was accepted into a Canadian medical specialty program.
I understand this makes them criminally inadmissible since it has not been over 5 years but saw that they can try to apply for rehabilitation when applying for the study permit to see if they get a special exception.
Wondering if anyone has heard of previous experience of being approved for study permit in such cases ? Or is their case complicated that getting assistance from a lawyer more recommend ?
thank you!
