The EPE CheatSheet

Feeling Overwhelmed by the EPE?

You Are Not Alone.

“Overwhelming” is usually the first word that comes to mind when preparing for the Entry-to-Practice Exam (EPE). With thousands of pages of statutes and regulations, the sheer volume of material can feel impossible to master in a short time.

We’ve been in your shoes. We know the anxiety of the unknown. That is why we created The EPE Cheatsheet, to cut through the noise and focus entirely on what you actually need to pass.

Why This Book is Different?

This is not another dense textbook or a dry collection of statutes. This is a strategic tool designed for one purpose: helping you pass the EPE.

• We Filter the Noise:
  You don’t need to know everything to pass; you need to know the right things. We prioritize high-probability topics and cut away low-priority content.
• Competency Over Memorization:
  The EPE tests your ability to apply rules, not recite them. We explain concepts in plain language so you can respond confidently during the exam.
• Concise & Digestible:
  At approximately 100 pages, this book respects your time. Tables, visuals, and simple English make complex ideas easy to understand.

What’s Inside?

• RCIC Professional Practice:
  Ethics, Client Accounts, Retainers, and Practice Management.
• Legal Framework:
  Administrative Law, Federal Court processes, and the roles of IRCC, CBSA, and IRB.
• Core Immigration Topics:
  Inadmissibility, Temporary & Permanent Residence categories, and Citizenship.
