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

    Even with ties to Canada the H&C program was never meant for parent sponsorship. There are some really exceptional cases but in general Canada has PGP and supervisas for a reason.

    Yes you can update your application via webform if there are any changes or additional information. It will take years for most cases to get reviewed so there is a a good chance most will need to be updated along the way.

    Relocating from Other Province to Quebec for PRs

    To be fair IRCC is exploring how to enforce this. Believe I read it in the gazette sometime this year. One of the huge frustrations of many of the provinces because makes it tough to make any plans surrounding skilled labour through immigration.

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

    Having read the more recent JRs BIOC is not necessarily enough. There now typically needs to be another element. Canadian born certainly helps but doesn’t guarantee stay of parents, concrete longterm well documented proof of chronic medical issues that can not be addressed at home, length of...

    H&C Unique situation with my 76-year-old mother. Advice appreciated

    The easy repeat extensions and long supervisa “visits” are giving people the false sense that this is a permanent move. The daughter only got her PR in 2024 where was the longterm care planning knowing the mother was on a limited visitor visa in Canada? Also why was the son not part of...

    Parents not at wedding

    If you have lived together for a long time that typically overrules any concern about parents being present. There can be many reasons from distance, parents not approving, intercultural marriage, etc.

    Best plan of action

    Assume you have also looked at processing time for spousal sponsorship in Quebec. Good chance you both will be over 50 when you get approved. She will get a WP when you get AOR for sponsorship.

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

    BIOC is even too broad. Everyone with a child who is in Canada can make some sort of BIOC case and huge variability on approval between who is evaluating the case. Also plenty of non-parent and sibling cases in the pool.

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

    Immigration in Canada is incredibly different than it was just a year ago. Getting H&C approved in 2023 and probably applying during 2021/22 is entirely different to current day. You and your spouse need to upskill asap. Learn French, increase your English skills, move to a rural community or...

    Estimate for Refugee Hearing Date for Refugee Claim Filed 2025

    Unstable countries is a stretch. Many still get denied from unstable countries. Way too many countries that would be deemed “unstable”. You need additional reason why you personally can’t return to your home country if there is no active conflict.

    Estimate for Refugee Hearing Date for Refugee Claim Filed 2025

    Yes any changes to how asylum claims are processed or who qualifies will likely be challenged legally. The newer asylum claimants with long periods of time already may get expedited processing to try to deny the ones without grounds as far as possible.

    Anyone know how to check for my case online and check my background check while waiting for a hearing?

    Not what you want to hear but you may be years away from getting a hearing. No way to figure out where you are exactly in the process but your background check is unlikely to have been even started. Have you been contacted as potentially being part of expedited processing?
