Just because you indicated to CRA one status (under one definition and interpretation of the law) and a different one previously to CIC (under a different definition and interpretation of the law) does not automatically mean you have misrepresented yourself.

However, it certainly could raise doubts about how truthful you were in your original application.

My advice would be to find a good lawyer (which means don't pick one from the telephone book or the law society list, do some research and find one with experience in this type of area - interview several, talk to others, etc.) Then you can obtain competent guidance on your specific case.
