What is the impact of illegal immigration on a visa application?

Canada (Federal), Canada

The following excerpt is from Mui v. Canada (Minister of Citizenship and Immigration), 1998 CanLII 7534 (FC):

The visa officer was influenced by the fact that the applicant had been an illegal immigrant for fifteen years. She expressed the view that he might be a member of an inadmissible class as described in paragraph 19(2)(d) of the Immigration Act. This is an irrelevant consideration at this stage of the immigration process. (See King-Sing So v. The Minister of Employment and Immigration (1995), 93 F.T.R. 154 at 155.)
