    Short-Hearing Experience

    Hi, I believe my hearing will take place sometime this year, and it will likely be a short hearing unless that changes. I wanted to ask about your experience with short (less complex) hearings. I’ve heard that they mainly ask questions based on your Basis of Claim, and that you are essentially...

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

    No, it means that a person who entered Canada after June 24, 2020 will be ineligible to seek asylum if more than one year has passed from the date of their first entry after said date.

    Bill C-12 Ineligibility Thread

    The IRB can only consider the best interests of children during later proceedings, since IRCC and CBSA decide whether a claim is eligible. While they can also consider the best interests of children, in this context they do so only for unaccompanied children.

    Bill C-12 Ineligibility Thread

    If the 1 year bar applies to them, they will likely be issued an ineligibility letter. This is my best guess judging from what I've read so far, the process is very new right now, so it's difficult to know what will happen.

    Hello everyone, If you are someone who made a refugee claim that was eligible at the time and was already referred, but may now be considered ineligible under the provisions of Bill C-12, please share your timeline and any correspondence you receive from IRCC. This would be very helpful as a...

    Mistake on BOC Question 3

    Thank you, I appreciate your help. I think I'll leave it be for now, as it doesn't seem to have caused a problem. And I believe it will be easy to explain in case of an issue.

    Refugee/Asylum Claimants 2025 Timelines

    Hard to say, because even though it's somewhat based on when you made your claim, it's also based heavily off from, your country of origin, your claim type (religious, ethnicity, etc.), or even whether your claim is "Less Complex".

    Has anyone received a letter of ineligibility following bill c-12 receiving royal assent?

    I believe it will take at least 1-2 weeks before anything starts happening. But it could take less, or even more.

    Bill C-12's Nearing Royal Assent and Refugee Claim Eligibility

    If on or before June 2nd 2025, no, if on or after June 3rd 2025, yes, as per Clause 75 of Bill C-12: "75 Paragraphs 101(1)‍(b.‍1) and (b.‍2) and subsection 101(1.‍1) of the Immigration and Refugee Protection Act (a) do not apply to a claim for refugee protection made before the day on which...

    Bill C-12's Nearing Royal Assent and Refugee Claim Eligibility

    https://www.parl.ca/DocumentViewer/en/45-1/bill/C-12/royal-assent I think subsection Immigration and Refugee Protection Act 101(1.1) has to be read together with the condition at the start of the sentence. It begins with: “if the claimant has entered Canada more than once after June 24, 2020”...

    Bill C-12's Nearing Royal Assent and Refugee Claim Eligibility

    At this point it's hard to say, my personal best guess is that it will be deferred from the IRB and offered a PRRA. But officers have discretion, as they could allow the case of a minor to be referred to the IRB despite being ineligible under IRPA paragraph 101(1)(b.1)
