The IRCC would flag in our system when there is a case of misrepresentation, and let's be clear about the misrepresentation we're talking about. It's academic credential fraud. Someone claimed to have science degree or a master's degree when they had a bachelor's, so let's understand that.
Our reaction is to flag the applicants account with an indicator. As Tara explained, that indicator gives rise to questioning. Through the questioning, the decision-maker satisfies themselves with the answer to that question. My sense of the process is that a flag is placed on the system, indicating that there has been misrepresentation, which alerts people to ask better questions.
