Appreciate your feedback. One question though since you mentioned h&c relief granted to some PRs to keep their PR status. Is there a possibility of any provision for h&c relief in granting citizenship while a PR is posted abroad with UN and there are multiple other factors involved such as PR...

We currently have PR from protected persons route and our current time left to apply for citizenship is approximately 21 months. I have an employment opportunity to serve in United Nations in NY but that means we might not be eligible to apply for citizenship after 21 months. Rules state that...

Hi all We are visiting Canada this month and we will be staying in Vancouver. I have booked our flights with Qatar airways through Montreal where our layover is around 16hrs. So I have booked a hotel near the airport where we can spend the night before taking our Air Canada flight to Vancouver...

Thanks. It makes sense but a couple of points. Moving cities has no use because the core problem is the law of the land which applies everywhere in the country which makes a community subject to persecution and a variety of discriminations. The case is well known globally and its my concern that...

Ok here it is. Life is in danger in home country because of religious persecution. Currently residing for work in another country(likely not safe/non-signatory to Geneva convention). Have valid visas for multiple countries as said above but no travel to any of these for atleast past one year. A...

Ok got it you meant visit visa which I have valid for many years. Problem is I have valid visit visas also for UK, USA and a couple others but I have decided to claim refuge in Canada out of these. Now I am trying to find a flight path with which I can avoid the safe first/third country rule...

Can taking a flight to Canada through Turkey raise first safe country questions?

Can you please explain more what youean by asylum shopping

It sounds wierd may be your nationality allows you to come through London without a transit visa. However I still think even if you landed and changed your flight in a London airport, technically you could apply for asylum there so you would be questioned about first safe country scenario...

True but still I believe that asylum can be made with transit visa after landing

Do you mean you took flight through London? I personally don't think you need a visa to claim asylum

Thanks. The eligibility criteria above is met by all points so technically it should be ok. However I understand that later at the hearing, questions will be raised which will have to addressed accordingly.

I understand that questions will be raised and will have to responded to logically and wisely. What's more of a concern is any specific agreement which will make the claim ineligible on technical grounds. But immediately my concern is taking a flight transiting through UK. Thanks

Hi All Can someone shed some light on Canada's safe third country agreement for asylum seekers. I understand it primarily runs between Canada and US and there are many exceptions however I am more interested in Europe. For instance if a flight to Canada is taken from Pakistan through UK while...
