Asylum Steps at Airports

[116sg17]

f you use someone else's identification, that can create additional challenges / complexities for your refugee claim. Just be prepared for that.

Good luck.

This is 100% true. Not trying to discourage you OP but a big part in claiming asylum in any country is establishing your identity (typically passports are only universally accepted identity documents).

Good luck.

Unfortunately my passport is confiscated and A friend has offered to help me get out using his travel documents , he is taking a big risk himself

So he has a visitor visa for Canada? Is the passport of your nationality?

1. Also with someone else's passport, getting on board might prove impossible. Also if s/he actually arrives with a false/someone else's passport s/he may find themselves detained for lack of identification.

If you dont mind, could you mention the country /region in question? If the situation is so bad, would your friend not want to leave eventually too? How will he do that if you use his documents? It can cause him big issues to travel anywhere in the future.
You will not be allowed to board a plane without a visa...so depending on your country, see if there is some neighboring country you can drive to and go to unhcr...people who have more experience with refugee may be able to guide you better...but the first challenge will be getting out of your country to a safe zone. Also, will you be ok to get out while the rest of your family will remain there?(need to think about the emotional and mental effects of longterm separation knowing that you cannot go back no matter the situation)

You need to plan your exit very very carefully and remain extremely strong through it all. Keep in mind that using someone else's passport / documents can have serious consequences if ever caught for many countries.
You need to analyze every possibility and remain strong.

Hi everyone , I have basic Question , I live in a 3rd world country where might is right , hence I wont go into the lengthy story of persecution faced by me and my family
I wanted to know since the Regime here had placed me on travel restriction among other Human rights violation , I have to ask a favour from a friend and use his passport to escape , I dont know If I will be able to carry my original hard copies of ID etc with me, once I reach the Port of Entry , Say the airport what will be the procedure (steps) and who would I need to inform about the situation and how many counters of security will I need to go through and declare my story and what will be asked of me and will they allow a counsel to help me in this screening process as if They send me back I will be immediately taken into custody and to an unknown place from which I am trying to flee in the first place
Thanks and be safe , Its a blessing

Are you able to take a direct flight from your home country to Canada? Has your friend travelled before to countries like the UK, US, etc.? Have you attempted to apply for a TRV? It can be very challenging to get a TRV from some countries.
