    From https://www.canada.ca/en/immigration-refugees-citizenship/services/refugees/protection.html Claiming asylum means asking Canada for protection because it’s not safe for you in your own country. Asylum is another word for protection and “claiming asylum” means asking for refugee protection...

    Travel as a refugee claimant.

    Yes you need to apply for a new visa using your RTD. I have read in other threads that once you apply for your new US visa you should get in touch with the US embassy you applied to, and there is a possibility that they 'expedite' the processing of your visa application and maybe even without...

    8+ Months Waiting for Work Permit – Refugee Claimant

    you should be able to resolve this without a mandamus application- they made a mistake as they admitted to you so unfortunately you will have to be both patient and a thorn in their side and keep following up (ie. calling everyday) until an IRCC officer resolves it for you. Good luck and sorry...

    Challenging situation…PGP Program vs Refugee claim

    I will second that you **should not** withdraw your mother's refugee claim AND **you should** talk to a lawyer about your unique circumstance- no one in this forum will give you better advise than that. And ignore people in this thread questioning your intention and situation, they often like...

    Open Work Permit Hard Copy Not Received

    I would recommend calling IRCC again, confirm all the information they have on file is correct (mailing address etc.) and if it is correct, ask them to resend the WP as you have not received it. It should not take 2 months to mail your work permit to you.

    Want to leave canada

    1- I am unsure if he will be cleared to travel with a balance due 2- to leave voluntarily he needs to contact CBSA and maybe IRCC to arrange to have his passport given back to him so he can travel- this normally happens at the airport when he is departing, he'd need to book a ticket etc. 3- he...

    front-end security screening.

    Sorry it has taken so long, 3 years is way too long. I believe that given it is taking more time than their 'standard processing time' you can call IRCC and request that they flag it and send a message to your processing officer, perhaps you can do the same with IRB but I am not sure. I also...
