Hi everyone,

My mothers Refugee claimant document expires soon, she went to see doctor today and lady at reception said she needs to renew her refugee document otherwise doctor won't take her through her IFHP coverage. Can't find any info on that and can't get hold of CIC by phone
Well as far i know, if the documents expire, the medical coverage does not expire. I knew one of my friend live in Montreal did renew his refugee claimant document. So i think ur mother should not have any problem plus doctor office should know it.

Health coverage is not guaranteed for H&C applicants. Some are working therefore get coverage through the province. What is your status and what was the expiry date on IFHP?
I am currently on Open work permit and didn’t renew my claimant document and IFHP since my case was rejected at federal court stage! What would you advise me and how will I get health coverage under open work permit? Thank you for your time

How did that work out for you? my claimant paper also expired last year and I’m planning to see my doctor for urgent need. My concern is will the IFHP cover me after my claimant paper has already expired And about humanitarian compassion ground?....it’s past the 1 year bar after my claim was rejected by federal court. Any advice friends

You will have to see if you get another OWP. Who qualifies for healthcare varies by province. Where are you living?

I'm applying for OWP for the 3rd time and still considering going for humanitarian compassion ground since it has passed one year bar after my refugee claim was rejected and ended at the final Judical Review. And I'm currently in Toronto. Have no idea what to do for health coverage!!!! Ultimately my goal is to apply for PR! Thanks my friend for your time
