A private group would have to choose to sponsor you. There is no real way to expedite the process. As a refugee, you don't really get to choose where you go.

Where are you from originally?

That's not how sponsorship works. You don't pick the group or pay It can take many years for refugees to arrive through private sponsorship. Most of the organizations who sponsor refugees usually have a long waiting list of families they plan to sponsor even if they sponsor one or two families a year.

The processing time for sponsored refugees from Pakistan is 68 months. You may want to look at alternate countries if you are in a hurry.

He's in Thailand, not Pakistan, so the question is, should he pick Thailand to get the right processing time?
