Claim Refugee Status

Canada offers protection to people who fear persecution or who would face serious risk if returned to their home country. A refugee claim made in Canada is decided by the Refugee Protection Division of the Immigration and Refugee Board (IRB). A well-prepared claim, supported by a clear narrative and strong evidence, makes a real difference at the hearing.

Who is this for?

  • People in Canada with a well-founded fear of persecution because of race, religion, nationality, political opinion or membership in a particular social group
  • People who face a risk of torture, a risk to their life, or cruel and unusual treatment or punishment in their home country
  • Claimants whose case is already in progress and who need help preparing for their hearing

How we can help

  • Assessing your eligibility and the strength of your claim
  • Preparing your Basis of Claim (BOC) form and personal narrative
  • Gathering identity documents, personal evidence and country-condition reports
  • Preparing you for your hearing and representing you before the IRB
  • Guiding you on the next steps after a decision, including permanent residence as a protected person

Good to know: Refugee claims have strict deadlines, and some documents must be filed within days. Contact us as early as possible.
