He is your nephew so you are eligible to claim a refugee protection. A nephew is a son of one's sibling or half-sibling. and age doesn't matter a nephew can be of any age..

hope it helps

You should read this:
http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/department/laws-policy/menu-safethird.asp

And verify whether the young man you mention is considered your nephew ("close relative") by CIC; I suspect he is not, & that you should claim asylum in the US: the first safe country in which you arrived.

Lammawitch incorrect... please read your suggested page carefully.

Scroll down to the definition section of the page where it states that

The Safe Third Country Agreement recognizes a family member as the following:

spouse
legal guardian
child
father or mother
sister or brother
grandfather or grandmother
grandchild
uncle or aunt
nephew or niece
common-law partner
same-sex spouse

So Kjano is eligible to apply for asylum at the us-canada boarder as he has a close relative (nephew) in canada.

1. The OP has no blood relationship to the claimed nephew, note he said that it is the son of a STEP sister.

Hi

Yes and the matter of fact is that the son of his half sister will be considered as his nephew. Now the op must elaborate his exact relation with his sister/step sister/siblings

Hi,
Sorry i am new to this page and accidently clicked something else instead of replying

So the story goes like this:
My stepsister and i share the same father but different mothers so yes we do have half a blood relationship. But the problem is that my niece is an a** and chances are he wont help me. But does that create any problem or should i just get a lawyer and ask him to to do his part of the thing?

 

[Kjano]

Yes and the matter of fact is that the son of his half sister will be considered as his nephew. Now the op must elaborate his exact relation with his sister/step sister/siblings

I elaborated what i could, it is more of an incestial kind of thing hard to explain so here we go, my father gave her daughter (my step-sister) to my uncle. And my uncle gave her sister (my mother) to my father. Its like a traditional match making thing and its pretty stupid if u ask me. And so my step sister's son would be both my nephew and my cousin. Since we share the same blood as my father then her son would be blood relatrd to me, right?

 

[Kjano]

Yes and the matter of fact is that the son of his half sister will be considered as his nephew. Now the op must elaborate his exact relation with his sister/step sister/siblings

Exact relationship is that we are 6 siblings in total, and that 5 of us are from one mother, and one of us; my step-sister is from another mother who is deceased. And my father is deceased as well, and my step sister married my mom's brother and tada~ gave birth to the nephew i have in canada. Does that clearly explains the relationship? We do share the same father so my father is my nephew's grandfather as well.

Oh, and btw my nephew is a bit of a jerk i wonder if he will help much so can i hire a lawyer and push him to help me or something? And what documents do i exactly need at the border good sir, and what rocuments should my nephee have to prove the relationship? Is her moms id card that stems to my father enough to prove it?

Also should he come to the border or just give a call since he is working and might be busy

Hi

Thank you PMM. It appears we were both misled by the terminology used.

As the OP has now clarified that it is a HALF sister, and not a STEP sister (two entirely different relationships), it appears that he can claim asylum on the basis of having a nephew in Canada, as mentioned by Kriv in his reply.

Kriv: I did read my link carefully. See above why PMM & I believed the nephew was not a relative based on the first post.

Will the nephew at least confirm that he's related to you?

Sorry my bad, gentlemen, i sure didnt know that there existed a special word for that kind of a relationship thank you and really appreciated

Well, he might be a decent jerk but he can confirm it for sure through phone that is.

It is possible but you have to give good reasons why to convince the CBSA why you did not claim refugee in the US which is also a safe country.
