Resources for Refugee Claimants
Illustration: Andrea Armstrong
My Refugee Claim is for people making refugee claims in Canada.
My Refugee Claim offers three resources – the MyRefugeeClaim.ca website, the Orientation Booklet, and Ready Tours – to help each refugee claimant get informed, connected, and prepared throughout their refugee claim journey.
My Refugee Claim is also valuable for Canadians who accompany refugee claimants, or who simply want to learn more about Canada’s refugee protection process.
Use My Refugee Claim to:
- Navigate Canada’s refugee protection process
- Download and print the Orientation Booklet for the refugee claimant(s) you are accompanying.
- Register for a Ready Tour hosted by the Immigration and Refugee Board of Canada. Hearing Ready Tours help refugee claimants understand and prepare for their refugee hearings. Appeal Ready Tours help refugee claimants or appellants learn how to submit an appeal if you get a negative decision. Service providers and community workers are encouraged to register for and attend the Hearing and Appeal Ready Tours.
- Locate and engage refugee claimant serving agencies and supports using Community Resources, wherever you are in Canada.
Agencies are invited to link www.myrefugeeclaim.ca on their website to support refugee claimants.
