I think there is a confusion of terms here. When we advise @BigTony to request PRRA, the suggestion is simply to *apply* for PRRA, that is - fill the application forms and by doing so automatically defer his deportation, since it will take 6-12 months to get refusal letter. Until then, he cannot be deported. Many of us have used this "loophole" to buy time until our HCs have been decided. I don't think anybody here is reasonably expecting that he will get his PRRA approved at the end and become a protected person in Canada. We heard from limited evidence that PRRA approval rate has never exceeded 5% even in best years.
No country is disqualified from *applying*.

Don’t think that is clear to most people asking about applying for PPRA. Most are asking whether they will be granted PPRA and aren’t realizing it is to only buy time. You may be knowledgeable about immigration but most are not which is why they are on the forum.

I don't know why you didn't restore your status before, but of course you still have chances and your chances are very big i think, because you don't have any relation with Bangladesh, i don't think you have Omani citizenship because gulf countries generally don't naturalise people, your mental health situation can be positive, your diploma and also your work, if you worked illegally it can also be positive or maybe negative it depends on the officer, better to pay taes if you have SIN or ITN.... try to explain the impact of bad conditions in your countries with articles, an reports, reports and proofs from social worker or psychologist about your mental health situation or even articles from web, proofs of your establishment like your diploma,letters from friends or family, pictures, volunteer work, your bills, bank account, you should of course explain why you didn't regularize your status before.
I advice you to work with a good immigration lawyer

Thanks for you wonderful suggestion @wello711 I was unable to resotre my status in 2016 because I had severe anxiety and depression issue for which was unable to seek help. I was tring to get back to school, but lack of funds made it impossible my dad is a farmer, so I was working to save money for my tution, and I finally got offer letter from york Uni in 2018, but again took break beacuse of my mental health in 2020, now I saving and helping family back home I have a younger sister who is 12 and back home I am worried about her future too, because my dad is about to retire this year from his job. I have a lawyer, but I dont know if she is good enough I feel like I am walking on egg shells when asking suggestion. I am an introvert and had only 3 friends including my younger brother. My lawyer told me to get letter from my coworker, but its hard for me to ask. I feel the if i apply the ircc officer will think because of my lack of connection that i am not genuine.

PRRA application is a paper package and is normally handed by CBSA in person at your interview. So they will decide when to hand it to you, from which date you will have 15 days to file application. Normally, this happens after you lost status and they called you to pre-removal interview. If you are eligible for PRRA (meaning you do not have 12-month bar after your negative refugee decision), and tell your life will be in danger, they will usually hand out PRRA package. Especially if you have outstanding HC, they may offer it themselves to help you buy time (like in our case).

CONGRATULATIONS ME AM WAITING FOR MY PR CARD AS WELL

no you need pcc for H&c when she get her Aip then you have submitted background check form everything country been in last 10 years

If someone is here inside canada for last TEN year, still she/he have to submit police clearance certificate??
If not then why niagara falls processing center asking for it??

 

[Ayanna]

Please share some examples of when a US citizen was approved for PPRA.

dude you have a problem I never said they got approved I said they been offered PRRA

 

[Ayanna]

Applying to buy time is very different then applying with a chance of approval. Applying from the US has no chance of approval except for very rare circumstances like in cases where the death penalty may be a possibility. If people are asking about chances of PPRA I assume (as would anybody) they want to know whether they have a chance of being approved.

my friend Calm down You need to stop drinking too much
You should ask the CBSA officer why they’re offering those countries We are here to share thoughts we are law bidding people
Please leave us alone

You disagreed on my comment that US residents are unlikely to get PPRA from the US which is a correct statement. They may be offered the chance to apply but they will never get approved for PPRA. Still would be pretty unusual to be able to apply for PPRA as a US citizen. Although many of us are knowledgeable about how rare getting approved for PPRA is many on this forum are not. Many would not know when you are suggesting PPRA it isn’t to secure PR it is to buy time. It is fair constructive criticism and defending why my statement wasn’t incorrect.

You actually didn’t which is why I was asking for examples in case I wasn’t aware of something.
