Expert Guidance for Start-Up Visa Applicants Facing a PFL from IRCC
The Procedural Fairness Letter (PFL) is a critical step in the Canadian Start-Up Visa (SUV) Program application process. Receiving a PFL from Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada (IRCC) indicates concerns about the business viability, financial sustainability, or credibility of the startup team. If not addressed properly, this could lead to visa refusal.
At Inwest Ventures, we provide strategic consultation and professional response drafting to help entrepreneurs and their legal representatives (lawyers, RCIC) successfully navigate this challenge and secure their immigration pathway.
A Procedural Fairness Letter (PFL) is an official request from IRCC asking for clarification or additional evidence regarding concerns in an applicant’s Start-Up Visa (SUV) application. This letter is an opportunity to defend your case before a final decision is made.
IRCC questions the scalability, innovation, or economic feasibility of the startup.
The application lacks sufficient data supporting market demand or competitive positioning.
IRCC requires further proof of funding sources, financial projections, or investment backing.
The founding team’s qualifications or business roles appear unclear or inconsistent.
IRCC questions the level of engagement from the venture capital firm, angel investor group, or business incubator supporting the application.

IRCC imposes strict deadlines on PFL responses, making expert guidance essential. Our team at Inwest Ventures offers a comprehensive response strategy tailored to address IRCC’s concerns efficiently and persuasively.
