Again, a temporary resident is not within the scope of what we're seeking. We're specifically seeking an exemption from the User Fees Act or the service fees act for permanent residents. IRCC currently has an exemption for temporary residents from the act. We also have an exemption for citizenship. These have already been legislated. What we're seeking here is specifically for permanent residents. We're seeking this because of the unique nature of our clientele. They are internationally located—they're across the world—and we need flexibility when it comes to setting fees.
