Immigration and Refugee Board of Canada (IRB) – Claimant’s Kit
The IRB’s Claimant’s Guide is for people who are claiming refugee protection under Canada’s new refugee determination system, which came into effect on December 15, 2012. It provides basic information about:
- How decisions are made about refugee protection in Canada;
- What the Refugee Protection Division (RPD) of the Immigration and Refugee Board of Canada (IRB) does; and
- What you need to do.
IRB has also put together a Refugee Claim Toolkit which includes the following topics:
- Making a Claim
- Providing the Basis for your Claim
- Gathering and submitting evidence
- Attending your hearing
- Receiving your decision
