Our devoted team of professionals is consistently present to provide you with the guidance, support, and expertise necessary to make the journey through the Canadian refugee system as smooth as possible.

Refugee Claims & Appeals – An Overview:

Canada grants refugee protection to several individuals in Canada who fear persecution or who would face any potential hazards if they were to leave. Some of the hazards they may face include:
→ Torture.
→ Risk to their life.
→ Risk of cruel and unusual treatment or punishment (Persecution).

In Canada, the Immigration and Refugee Board (IRB) is the primary institution for overseeing the refugee selection process. The IRB is an independent administrative tribunal established under the Immigration and Refugee Protection Act (IRPA). Namely, the Refugee Protection Division (RPD) is the one responsible for reviewing and assessing refugee claims.

The Government of Canada also determines whether a refugee claim is admissible to the IRB. Here at NorthPass, our team is well-versed and able to assist you in reviewing the requirements and ensuring all necessary documentation is available to submit the claim successfully.

Once your refugee claim has been submitted you will be required to provide a basis for your claim and collect and submit evidence in preparation for the hearing before the RPD. We can consistently provide diligent support throughout this entire process, multiplying your chances of a positive result.

Should your claim unfortunately be rejected, you can file an appeal with the Refugee Appeal Board (RAD) or the Federal Courts for judicial review. We always explore solutions for every event, and our dedicated team is equipped to handle the entire appeal process. Northpass can assist you with everything from checking your eligibility and the set limits, to ensuring the appeal submission is done correctly. Additionally, we carefully equip you with what you need before you attend the hearing.
