Immigration and Refugee Protection Regulations
The AFTER version appends the full inline text of the amending regulations (SOR/2020-91 s. 5 and SOR/2022-142 s. 7) directly beneath the consolidated section, which was absent in the BEFORE version. Notably, the newly surfaced SOR/2020-91 s. 5 text adds a new paragraph (h) to s. 203(1.1): an employer's good-faith error in interpreting its compliance with conditions under ss. 209.2(1)(a)(v)–(vi) or 209.3(1)(a)(vii)–(xi) is now enumerated as a factor that can make employment unlikely to have a positive or neutral labour market effect. Consultants should note this new safe-harbour/adverse-factor provision when advising employers on LMIA compliance risk.

When a change lands, the engine re-checks the files it affects
Navisa is an AI file-prep engine for Canadian immigration firms. It reads the documents on a file, cross-checks them, runs the eligibility analysis against retrieved official sources, and flags what an officer would — citations attached. It does not replace the judgment of a licensed immigration professional; a consultant reviews and approves the work.
