OMVIC Practice Test

Should OMVIC issue a proposal to refuse (or revoke) registration, to whom can the applicant appeal?

1. Canada Appeals Tribunal

2. Licence Appeal Tribunal (LAT)

3. Provincial Court

4. Supreme Court

The correct answer is: Licence Appeal Tribunal (LAT)

The only available recourse for an applicant whose registration proposal has been refused or revoked by OMVIC is through the Licence Appeal Tribunal (LAT). The LAT is an independent adjudicative body that operates at arm's length from OMVIC, and allows the applicant to appeal the decision and have it reviewed by a third party. Options A, C, and D are not correct because they do not have jurisdiction over OMVIC's decisions and cannot review or overturn them. The only option that is directly related to OMVIC's decisions and can provide an appeal process is option B, the Licence Appeal Tribunal.
