Edd77, you can still apply for refugee in Canada even if another refugee claim had already been initiated on behalf of your wife.Edd77 said:Thanks for the great efforts CanadianForces and scylla.
I almost forgot to tell you that my sister in law has already applied for a refugee status for my wife this year within IOM program. My wife was given a case number because she is the principle claimant (my kids and I are included in this case) and her file hasn't been activated since then and we haven't been scheduled for any interview.
Has this something to do wrong upon my refugee claim in Canada? If so, what should I do?
All the best.
Cannot fly without a visa?You will need a visa if you plan to come by air.
No, you will not be allowed on the airplane without a visa obtained in advance.Cannot fly without a visa?
He applied for a business visa so he can claim asslyumMate are you Refugee or visitor ? make up your mind....
Unfortunately whether you are able to apply for refugee status using your business visa or via sponsorship (sister-in-law) you are in for a long wait and probably separation from your wife and children for quite a long time. The system is beyond overextended. Luckily it does seem like you have access to private funds and have family support because legal aid as well as help with initial settlement are becoming harder to access as they are all running out of funds due to increased demand.
You will be allowed to submit a claim but you may face challenges getting your claim approved.Please I am coming to Canada through Montreal air port this June from Nigeria and I have the intention to seek for protection at the port of entry. But I don't know about my eligibility for asylum because I just withdraw from my university in the United kingdom and went back to Nigeria. So I have already booked my flight to come in June. Please I want to know whether the CBSA official will allow me to claim asylum at the port of entry. Thank you
