    PR Card expired, can I apply for work permit?

    The bigger issue is if you are able to enter without being reported you may not be able to get a driver’s license, apply for healthcare, your family may not be able to join you for quite some time if you got married or had a child, etc. If you enter and aren’t reported you should plan on...

    How Can I Definitively Prove I Can't Get an Accurate, Legal Passport to Get a Certificate of Identity?

    So not an issue you need to worry about. If you claimed asylum you shouldn’t be renewing your passport. I hope you are working with a good lawyer since it will be very tough to get asylum from the US and the government may appeal if you do get approved.

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

    No country has a program that works properly because the demand far exceeds the number of stops available. Certain groups would benefit if UNHCR was not involved. If you live in a refugee camp with little resources (also may not know EN/FR or may not be even literate) you are much less likely...

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

    No or lax TRV vetting was a huge reason for the increase in asylum claims. People who would never have been granted TRVs were routinely granted TRVs in 2021-24. Visa free travel from Mexico also was a major impact. I see nobody involved in immigration questioning this and the data confirms...

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

    Your claim that there were no programs that allowed people to apply from other countries like Australia. That isn’t true. Didn’t say the system was great but the demand far exceeds the resettlement capacity I other countries. Canada depends on UNHCR to identify refugees that fit the profiles...

    How Can I Definitively Prove I Can't Get an Accurate, Legal Passport to Get a Certificate of Identity?

    If you have a valid passport from the US you can still use it. This is for new passports.

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

    We literally have government, blended and private sponsorship refugee pathways already. Also EMP which is a refugee/economic pathway.

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

    The data shows otherwise. There are certainly asylum seekers and refugees who work but in general the money spent on asylum, refugees and various H&C programs in the last 5-10 yrs is insane. The scrutiny to be able to qualify to claim asylum is minimal.

    Travel outside of Canada with work permit valid but with extension submitted

    Yes you can travel until your current WP expires.

    working while PGWP in process (ineligible)

    So not being compliant with your study permit for many years could continue to being an issue. You recently got a new study permit? Yes it is insane that you kept on getting study permits. You need a lawyer this is a huge mess.

    FROM NON ACCOMPANYING TO ACCOMPANYING AFTER ITA

    Where is your spouse and why would they be considered non-accompanying when you applied. That actually could be issue. Assume you may have not gotten the ITA had they been listed as accompanying originally.

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

    The reality is that most Canadians have minimal knowledge of immigration programs. Anything that suggests better management of immigration and reduction of current numbers will be popular with most of the general public. Much easier said than done.

    working while PGWP in process (ineligible)

    Given the processing times for PGWP and IRCC looking for reasons to remove people think this is now a risky plan. Would probably consult a lawyer but if someone has any desire to remain in Canada would personally not suggest misrepresentation.

    working while PGWP in process (ineligible)

    Do you mean your study permit or your TRV? When did you enter Canada as a student and have you been studying since then with no unscheduled breaks? In the same program/school and have you graduated?

    working while PGWP in process (ineligible)

    Filing a fake PGWP and working is fairly uncommon but may also be interpreted as filing a PGWP in bad faith to be able to work for a longer period of time. Given PGWP processing times this is not a good idea and IRCC could technically take action against her. IRCC is no longer the lax...

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

    Would likely be cancelled based on national interest and no longer functional program. The program was really meant for rare exceptional cases but has become a catch all for anyone who doesn’t have other pathways to PR. Much easier to cancel the whole program. There will be some genuine H&C...
