    No you remain a refugee and can’t change that.

    H&C Humanitarian Ground with/or Without Failed refugee claim

    There are jobs and houses in many of these locations. Trying to spread immigration across Canada and not primarily to a few urban centres has been a longterm goal for all parties since many of these locations have a need for workers and an ageing population. Agree that more people will end up...

    CEC calculation: completed 1560 hours but 2 days short for 52 calendar weeks

    You’ll need to run the exact calculation but yes you need a full year. 2 days can get you refused. If you had any paid vacation you can count up to 2 weeks annually. Not sure if that helps, hurts or doesn’t impact your situation.

    how is Manitoba to study for Indian Hyderabadi student, what are the pros and cons, future prospects?

    When it comes to undergrad university ed who attends is determined primarily who can afford to pay tuition and living expenses. If you look at what it takes to get into a top tier university in many, mainly Asian, countries it is pretty insane. Often based on a national exam as well. Many...

    Super Visa Re-application

    A visa doesn’t necessary expire by a passport expiry date but a visa is only a travel document so not sure how this is really relevant. Was there a date written in their passport upon entry which would have indicated the maximum length of their visit? They have already been visiting for 3...

    Indian parent on visitor visa rotating Canada→US→Canada - CBSA concern?

    Is the first visit to Canada meant to say Jan2026? If so yes that can be an issue because she appears to be living between Canada and the US and only visiting India. If she does try entering Canada in July I would make sure she has proof of her flight in November. That may have an impact on...

    BC highly qualified teacher and family doctor

    It certainly is informally. How long the MD will be able to work as an MD in Canada does have an impact on participant selection.

    Received an ITA under CEC. Complicated case.

    The only caveat I would probably add is he has ever applied for PR himself or attempted to extend a WP then that could be an issue. The whole family will have to pass medicals so if newborn is expected to have such serious health issues that makes relocating impossible then that may be a concern...

    Re-Entry to Canada.

    No your plan could be considered misrepresentation. You are currently visiting Canada and I’m not sure why you are waiting until August to leave Canada if you don’t have a valid WP. There may be concerns that you are working illegally unless you can show you are living off of savings and not...

    TRV within Canada for Parents

    They would also be expected to return home for a decent amount of time to reestablish their lives in their home country given their extremely long visit. It is actually quite crazy/generous that they were even given an extension until 2027 especially if not on a supervisa. These types of...

    Canadian PR Entry Concerns: Crossing Canada border with Family from Detroit USA without meeting Residency Obligation

    You can renew your health card with proof of residency not a valid PR card so actually not a big deal. A PR card is a travel document not proof of residency. Was this your first PR card?

    Help for Protected Person to Citizenship Path

    There are also a ton of benefits that asylum seekers get that not even Canadian citizens get so pointless to compare things. The whole goal of getting asylum is safety not a faster pathway to citizenship or guaranteed citizenship.

    Canadian PR Entry Concerns: Crossing Canada border with Family from Detroit USA without meeting Residency Obligation

    PR card expiry date rarely tied to health card expiry date. The exception may be for PR cards only issued for a short period of time if status is being appealed.
