Hi guys, please is it possible to get AIP on H & C while decision on Judicial Review of failed refugee is still pending from federal court? Both H&C and JR were submitted simultaneously in Feb, 2020, while H&C has moved to 'in process' already, no decision yet on JR

You aren’t eligible for H&C if you have a refugee claim in process.

  • made a claim for refugee protection that was determined to be ineligible to be referred to the RPD, and they have a pending pre-removal risk assessment (PRRA) application
Similarly, if a person has filed a refugee claim with the RPD that was rejected, determined to be abandoned or determined to be withdrawn after substantive evidence has been heardFootnote 2 , they are barred from H&C consideration if less than 12 months has passed since the date of the

  • RPD decision in cases where there has been no appeal to the Refugee Appeal Division (RAD) or application for leave and judicial review submitted to the Federal Court

Sorry Buletruck, you have no idea. Please let the person who understands the process comment. After explaining how far I have gone in my H & C application and the progress av made with timeline, you re still saying am ineligible. If u need lecture on who is eligible or not I can help you on that though

Yes...it is possible for you to get AIP on your h&c. Your JR is pending on the federal court not on the refugee board.
