Hi
My name is ahmad and i am from Pakistan , I have some problems in Pakistan even threatened to my life .
I leave Pakistan and living in Liberia.
How can i do asylem from here.
Can anybody help me.

You need to be officially recognized as a refugee in Liberia by UNHCR. UNHCR will then select a country where you will be resettled (this may be Canada or it may not).

So the first step is to officially recognized as a refugee by UNHCR.
 
The immigration officer of Liberia does not accept the paper of UNHCR. In recent last days they arrest on of my friend and said to him that this is not acceptable and put him in jail.
So it will be a bit difficult
Actually I am graduated also and want to study further up to PHD.
So give me a simple way that i follow it.
Thanks and regard
Ahmad khan
 
In that case you would need to obtain a TRV (visitor visa), travel to Canada and claim refugee status when you arrive in Canada. To be approved for a TRV, you must demonstrate strong ties to your country of residence and prove you have no plans on remaining in Canada long term. I suspect it will be very difficult for you to obtain a TRV.

If you wish to study in Canada and come to Canada on a study permit, you will first need to be accepted by a school in Canada and then apply for a study permit. as part of that application, you will need to demonstrate that you have enough money to cover your first year tuition, $10K in living expenses for your first year and travel expenses. You will also need to show ties to your home country and prove you have no plans on remaining in Canada long term.

You can also look into applying to immigrate through an economic stream like Express Entry if you have at least one year of full time paid work experience in a skilled occupation. More details here: http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/immigrate/index.asp
 
Have you tried reaching out to UNHCR in Liberia? http://www.unhcr.org/liberia.html

I don't know what you mean by "immigration officer of LIberia". Assuming a TRV will be impossible for you to get, your only hope to claim refugee status in a safe country is to first be recognized as a refugee by UNHCR. If for some reason you can't do this in Liberia, then you would need to move to some other country you can do it.
