hello everyone.

my husband tried to sponsor me on a family sponsorship class but my application was denied because he didnt declare me at the time of landing when became a permanent residence. though my daughter was exempted because she was born after my husband became a PR.

a year after i was able to apply for a visa to usa. Now am in USa on a visitor visa.

my question is can i seek refugee at the boarder. will i be allowed to claim refugee with my daughter because i have been denied on the family class?.

and i hope it wount affect my husband status in canada.

am just confused.........

Extremely unlikely that a refugee claim would succeed unless you can demonstrate that you are in fact a genuine refugee. It's not just an alternative way of getting round IRPR 117(9)(d). It's my guess that your prior interaction with IRCC regarding the failed sponsorship attempt would weigh heavily against you.
 
thanks for your responce. will she be allowed to seek refugee at the us canada boarder at least?

She will not be immediately turned away, if that's what you mean.. Family in Canada is a valid exemption from the Canada-U.S. Safe Third Country Agreement.
 
thanks for your responce,

my deep concern is if i can refer to my husband as a family member. even though i have has been refuse on the basis of not qualifying as a member of family class on the application

just curious and confused

Your husband is not classified as a family member since he failed to declare you in his application. So that likely won't work.
 
i have an uncle in canada. will that work

my concern is just if they will allow me make a refugee claim at the border.

Yes - the uncle will work provided he's living in Canada.
 
Why wouldn't you just have your husband sponsor your daughter? What would be the reasons you are claiming refugee status?
 
so been denied my sponsorship application earlier wount affect my claiming refugee at the boarder right?

What is your country of origin?

CIC may examine your refugee application more closely to ensure you meet the requirements to be accepted as a refugee and aren't an economic immigrant. Make sure you have the evidence requirement to support your refugee claim.

you can claim refugee at the border provided that your uncle is in Canada and you have a STRONG CASE TO PROVE THAT YOU ARE A GENUINE REFUGEE. Also, keep in mind claiming refugee and you are not a a genuine refugee result in you being deported from Canada.

Definitions
You may find the following definitions useful as you learn more about refugee claims in Canada.

Convention refugee

Convention refugees are people who are outside their home country or the country where they normally live, and who are unwilling to return because of a well-founded fear of persecution based on:

race;
religion;
political opinion;
nationality; or
membership in a particular social group, such as women or people of a particular sexual orientation.
Person in need of protection
A person in need of protection is a person in Canada whose removal to their home country or country where they normally live would subject them personally to:

a danger of torture;
a risk to their life; or
a risk of cruel and unusual treatment or punishment.

If you don't fall under those categories above or you don't have something to prove that you are in one of those categories, then I believe your case will be rejected and you may get deported to Nigeria.
 
my concern right now is just if i will be allowed to make refugee claim at the border as regards my situation and that i wount be return back to usa
