What is the impact of a finding about a DVD on the credibility of an applicant at a hearing?
Canada (Federal), Canada
The following excerpt is from Hernandez Cortes v. Canada (Citizenship and Immigration), 2009 FC 583 (CanLII):
The applicant is forgetting that the finding about the DVD counts for very little among the other things that undermined his credibility with the panel. In particular, the panel found omissions, contradictions between his PIF and his testimony at the hearing and implausibilities in his narrative. It was entitled to draw adverse inferences about his credibility based on all of these factors: Tejeda v. Canada (Minister of Citizenship and Immigration), 2009 FC 421, at paragraph 15.
