Canadian Immigration and Refugee Law
Our team members have extensive Canadian immigration experience and academic qualifications. We are familiar with the regulations and practices affecting the status of families, students, independent skilled workers, self-employed, investors and entrepreneurs. We also handle refugee matters, judicial reviews, work permits, humanitarian and compassionate applications and many other areas in Canadian immigration and refugee law.
With the knowledge of the latest legislative and development on immigration law, we know how to work with the necessary arm of government to reach resolutions more quickly and effectively.
Canada is a signatory to the 1951 Geneva Convention Relating to the Status of Refugees and its 1967 Protocol. Each year Canada grants permanent residence to a number of refugees under an elaborate refugee protection process comprising of two main components, the Refugee and Humanitarian Resettlement Program administered outside Canada and the In-Canada Refugee Protection Process.
The majorities of claimants make their claim at a Canadian port of entry or at an inland Canada Immigration Centre office. If successful, they are granted asylum status inside Canada and can apply for permanent residence thereafter.
Our firm also provides the full range of litigation services related to immigration and refugee matters, including hearings, appeals, and judicial review.
