My friend claimed asylum at the border, however during the process he got married to a Canadian citizen here in Canada and obtained Residence. His asylum case is statuses abandoned. Since he obtained his residency via spousal sponsorship how can we obtain the passport . Thank you
Refugee Claimant - Passport Request
- Thread starter Meera7
- Start date
And he is free to visit his
home country also because he got is pr through spouse ,.
Seems to be a goal of many individuals that file asylum / refugee. Let’s get that passport that represents the country i originally filed asylum/ refuge from asap and make that trip back .Totally makes sense.
Does that apply to individuals who got their refugee claim denied but later on got PR through spousal application ?
I don’t think in your case u will passport back because you already had hearing if u get your pr before hearing u could have got your passport back but I doubt they give you back now .
Yeah I just confirmed with the lawyer that even if you get PR with refugee you still can request to have your passport back.
