Every year, thousands of people come to Canada fleeing war, violence or persecution in their home countries. Canada’s refugee protection system offers a fair process for individuals who need safety and a fresh start. At KB1 Immigration, we help vulnerable individuals file refugee claims with confidence, compassion and legal precision.

Who Can Make a Refugee Claim in Canada?

You may be eligible to claim refugee protection in Canada if you are:

  • A Convention refugee – someone who fears persecution because of race, religion, political opinion, nationality or social group

  • A person in need of protection – someone at risk of torture or life-threatening danger in their country
    Claims can be made at a Canadian port of entry or from inside the country. Our team ensures your eligibility is reviewed quickly so your claim can move forward without delay.

The Refugee Claim Process

  1. Basis of Claim (BOC) Form
    Within 15 days of starting your claim, you must submit the BOC form. It tells your full story, the reasons for fleeing and the risk of returning home. Accuracy and honesty are critical.

  2. Hearing Before the IRB
    You will attend a hearing before the Refugee Protection Division. You will need to explain your situation and provide evidence. The decision is based on the credibility of your claim and documentation.

  3. Decision and Next Steps
    If approved, you can apply for permanent residency. If refused, you may appeal to the Refugee Appeal Division, request judicial review or apply for a Pre-Removal Risk Assessment.

What Documents Are Needed?

  • Identity documents

  • Police reports, medical records or court documents

  • Witness statements

  • News reports about your country’s situation
    KB1 Immigration helps you prepare and organize all required materials, translating and validating everything needed for your claim.

Why Legal Help Matters

Many refugee claims fail due to inconsistencies or missing evidence. With our guidance, you avoid common mistakes, present a strong case and get support during every hearing. We make sure your rights are respected and your voice is heard.
