    H&C Humanitarian Ground with/or Without Failed refugee claim

    Hi COPRs under H and C can not be issued with out a Stage 1 Assessment. So, H and C results, i.e. a stage 1 assessment comes first. You will receive a letter in which a visa officer would enclose the results of the global assessment of your case - either an approval or denial. Approval is...

    H&C Humanitarian Ground with/or Without Failed refugee claim

    1. You mentioned something about the family supporting you for some period when you're in Canada - does that family reside here or were they providing you with financial support from outside Canada? If they're providing you support from outside Canada then it could have hurt your case as it...

    H&C Humanitarian Ground with/or Without Failed refugee claim

    As far as I am aware, asking for a reconsideration is not subject to an adjudication fee. These requests are handled on a discretionary basis though. You are in an uncharted territory right now. No one can tell you what documents you should submit. It is entirely dependent on your own situation...

    H&C Humanitarian Ground with/or Without Failed refugee claim

    At a high level, you do appear to have a decent case considering you can speak English and presumably have been working in Canada with your (again assumption) minor child. Thus, I am surprised your case has been rejected. I was a teenager when I started doing research related to immigration...

    Hello Did you receive an interim approval, i.e. approval in principle, for the application you submitted under Humanitarian and Compassionate considerations? If not, you and your family were issued medical instructions to weed out any potential medical inadmissibility or to determine if a...

    H&C Humanitarian Ground with/or Without Failed refugee claim

    Hi Sorry to hear about your refusal. Ask for reconsideration right away and include a very strong and compelling letter when you ask for reconsideration.

    Humanitarian & Compassionate

    Hi First of all, Canada does not have a visa called "a Humanitarian Visa". What you're referring to is a humanitarian and compassionate clause in the Immigration and Refugee Protection Act mentioned in subsection 25.1. When someone requests an exemption under 25.1, they are making an attempt...

    Update on my mom's case: 1. Medicals: Passed 2. Security: Passed 3. Criminality: In Progress Any ideas as to when the criminality is going to be passed as well. We submitted an original PCC from her country of birth with the application. They did not request a PCC from RCMP (within Canada) but...

    H&C Humanitarian Ground with/or Without Failed refugee claim

    True - but it wouldn’t be appropriate for me to put my entire life story out on a web form for strangers to read. Bottom line is when someones applying for an exemption. The first thing they should ask themselves is that does their situation warrant an exemption? It’s a simple yes or no answer...

    H&C Humanitarian Ground with/or Without Failed refugee claim

    If in your heart you know that your situation is exceptional and warrant relief then you should already have all the documentation / paperwork handy.

    I have been in Canada ever since I was a minor, I.e. under the age of 18...and went to a college, university and graduate school (another university) for a STEM program.

    H&C Humanitarian Ground with/or Without Failed refugee claim

    Every case is unique in its own ways so it’s all dependent on how exceptional your situation is. There is no clear cut checklist for H and C application. Think about it like this - immigration application made under H and C are very much like a court case so winning it depends solely on the...

    H&C Humanitarian Ground with/or Without Failed refugee claim

    @canuck78 thinks even a 70 year old fella is young - so I wouldn't stress too much on what he's saying. Your H and C is refused because your documentation kind of showed that you might have been using this program to navigate around PGP sponsorship program and have no real basis for relief...

    H&C Humanitarian Ground with/or Without Failed refugee claim

    You’re saying someone you know applied for PR through H and C and got subsequently refused - the individual then later returned to Canada on a visitors visa after a month? It’s all dependent on what you’re comfortable with. You will have to make a decision that’s is in your family’s best...

    H&C Humanitarian Ground with/or Without Failed refugee claim

    Scylla is correct. I am not sure if the remainder of her visa will be cancelled or already cancelled. She will know that for sure at the time of boarding an aircraft bound for Canada for her next planned trip back from India to Canada. Upon arrival in Canada, she will very likely be transferred...
