A routine outage to the Lawyer Portal is scheduled to begin at 5 p.m. on Thursday, May 21, and will run until 7 a.m. on Friday, May 22. This outage will allow for the implementation of a few minor enhancements to CRM and Lawyer Portal.
What’s changing:
- New attestation form will be available under the Memberships tab as part of our quality standards for LAA certificates on Siksika Nation.
- Effective May 22, following immigration legislative changes in March, a new tariff item — 15.02A: PFL — is now available. It provides up to two hours per claimant to respond to a procedural fairness letter. Family members joined under the claim are eligible for an additional hour per claimant. When roster lawyers submit their authorization request, they must attach a copy of the PFL letter(s).
- Effective June 1, the current combined legal issue — Oppose Temporary Guardianship (TGO) / Oppose Permanent Guardianship Order (PGO) — will be separated into two distinct issues to improve clarity and reporting.
Impacted systems:
- Client Gateway
- Concerns Form
- DC Portal
- Lawyer Directory
- Lawyer Portal
- Lawyer Portal Application Form
Thank you for your patience.
