Some firms are noticing an increase in the number of persons flagpoling as more temporary residents seek quick immigration services. When a person departs Canada and returns to the United States without crossing the border, this is known as flagpoling. At busier border crossings, the process may cause delays. Although it is a totally legal procedure, it might cause complications for Canada Border Service Agency employees. The entire procedure is completed on the spot with this method. The number of days and times that flagpoling can be done at ports of entry has been limited by the CBSA. It also intends to improve application processing procedures. The IRCC issued a statement urging immigration advisors to discourage their clients from flagpolizing their work permits.
