I am not speculating on a general rule from one interaction with a provincial immigration office as yiu are. Then the next sentence it could be different office to office. Make your mind up and choose a lane.
Still the opinion of one small regional Office though is it not? Are you trying to make a general rule from a single piece of data? Anecdotes are not data.
You are relying on one low level immigration officer telling you. Anecdotes do not make data. You even then say it will probably change from office to office.
There is a lot of speculation and overthinking at the moment. The same with the tax situation. If (and it is a very big if) DTV holders do get caught up in tax system the first return is not due till March 2026.
