Hey everyone, my hearing was supposed to take place today in Toronto but unfortunately yesterday my lawyer received a fax indicating that my IRB hearing has been cancelled as the Canada Border Services Agency (CBSA) security screening has not been finished yet for unknown reasons and will be rescheduled upon receipt of completion of the screening.

I'm really worried, has anyone every been through this? If so, how long did it take for them to reschedule your hearing? Any opinions?

I've got same story like yours! On Thur. my lawyer received a fax letter postponing my hearing date which supposed to be held tomorrow Mon 14 Nov. "after two months since I claim refugee". The reason was the same too, the CBSA did not completed the security screening yet. However the letter also states the following:

" The claim may also be rescheduled and heard without the completed screening, subject to operational capacity, if confirmation has not been received by March 19, 2017"

Have you received this notice too?

Hi naturalist

Just wondering if you have been given a new date ever since or you are still waiting for the march 19th for the IRB to indefinitely set a hearing date?

No feedback yet for me! according to the IRB letter they may reschedule the hearing date without the CBSA screening after 19 Mar 2017.. and I'm still waiting!
