Refugee Claim

A refugee claim in Canada refers to the process by which individuals who are outside their home country or the country where they normally live, and who are unwilling to return because of a well-founded fear of persecution, can seek protection in Canada.

REFUGEE APPEALS

In Canada, if a refugee claim is denied by the Refugee Protection Division (RPD) of the Immigration and Refugee Board of Canada (IRB), the claimant may have the right to appeal the decision to the Refugee Appeal Division (RAD).

Spousal Sponsorship

Spousal Sponsorship in Canada is a program under which Canadian citizens or permanent residents can sponsor their spouse or common-law partner to become a permanent resident of Canada. The Spousal Sponsorship program is designed to reunite families and ensure that couples can live together in Canada, regardless of their nationality.

H&C APPLICATIONS

Humanitarian and Compassionate Grounds, often abbreviated as H&C, refer to a provision in Canadian immigration law that allows individuals who might not meet the standard criteria for immigration to apply for permanent residence based on exceptional circumstances. The H&C provision recognizes that, in some cases, strict adherence to the rules might result in undue hardship or might not account for the unique challenges and circumstances faced by an individual.

IRB HEARINGS

IRB Hearings in Canada are formal proceedings conducted by the Immigration and Refugee Board of Canada (IRB) to determine various immigration and refugee matters. The IRB is an independent administrative tribunal responsible for making decisions on immigration and refugee issues, and IRB Hearings are a central component of its decision-making process.

PRRA APPLICATION

PRRA Applications in Canada stand for Pre-Removal Risk Assessment applications. These are crucial mechanisms in the Canadian immigration system designed to ensure that individuals are not removed from Canada to a country where they would be at risk of persecution, torture, risk to life, or risk of cruel and unusual treatment or punishment. PRRA Applications provide a safety net for those who might be facing removal from Canada.

PR APPLICATIONS

PR Applications in Canada refer to Permanent Residency applications, a process by which foreign nationals can apply to become permanent residents of Canada. Gaining permanent residency allows individuals to live, work, and study in Canada indefinitely, and PR Applications are the gateway to achieving this status.

TRAVEL DOCUMENT

Travel Documents for refugees in Canada are essential papers issued to protected persons and recognized refugees who do not yet have a national passport and need to travel outside Canada. These Travel Documents are recognized by many countries and serve as a substitute for a passport, allowing refugees to travel internationally without jeopardizing their status in Canada.
