Refugee Claims


 

At Aslani Immigration Corp., we understand that fleeing persecution and seeking refuge in a new country is an incredibly challenging and emotional journey. Our dedicated team is here to provide compassionate support and expert guidance throughout the refugee claim process, ensuring that your case is presented effectively and thoroughly to Canadian immigration authorities.


What is a Refugee Claim?

A refugee claim is a request for protection made by an individual who fears persecution or faces danger in their home country due to factors such as race, religion, nationality, political opinion, or membership in a particular social group. Canada offers protection to individuals who meet the criteria for Convention Refugees or persons in need of protection.


Convention Refugees

  • Individuals who have a well-founded fear of persecution based on race, religion, nationality, membership in a particular social group, or political opinion.


Persons in Need of Protection

  • Individuals who, if returned to their home country, would face danger of torture, risk to their life, or risk of cruel and unusual treatment or punishment.


The Refugee Claim Process

The process of making a refugee claim in Canada involves several steps:


1. Making the Claim

You can make a refugee claim either at a port of entry (such as an airport, land border, or seaport) or at an inland immigration office. At this stage, you will need to provide detailed information about your identity and the reasons for your claim.


2. Eligibility Determination

Immigration, Refugees, and Citizenship Canada (IRCC) or the Canada Border Services Agency (CBSA) will determine whether your claim is eligible to be referred to the Immigration and Refugee Board (IRB).


3. Preparing Your Case

Once your claim is referred to the IRB, our team will help you prepare a comprehensive and compelling case. This includes gathering evidence, such as personal statements, documents, and expert reports, to support your claim.


4. Refugee Protection Division (RPD) Hearing

You will attend a hearing before the Refugee Protection Division (RPD) of the IRB, where you will present your case. Our experienced legal representatives will advocate on your behalf, ensuring that your story is heard and understood.


5. Decision

The RPD will make a decision on your claim. If accepted, you will be granted protected person status, allowing you to apply for permanent residency. If refused, you may have the option to appeal the decision to the Refugee Appeal Division (RAD) or seek judicial review in federal court.
