Protected Persons, Convention Refugees and Protected Temporary Residents Class

In Canada, status of a Protected Person is decided by the Immigration and Refugee Board of Canada (IRB) and the Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada (IRCC).

If the Immigration and Refugee Board of Canada determines you “a person in need of protection or a Convention refugee”, you become a Protected Person. Similarly,  if the Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada (IRCC) approves your application for Pre-Removal Risk Assessment (PRRA), you become a Protected Person.  A protected person may apply for permanent residence in Canada under protected persons and convention refugee class if other requirements of application for permanent residence are met.

You may also be eligible to apply for permanent residence under Protected Persons and Convention Refugees class if you are a member of the Protected Temporary Residents Class (PTRC). Protected Temporary Residents are those individuals who were admitted to Canada on a temporary resident permit (TRP) and who have been determined to be in urgent need of protection by a visa office.

If your claim for refugee protection has been approved by the Immigration and Refugee Board of Canada (IRB) or your application for Pre-Removal Risk Assessment has been approved by the Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada (IRCC) or if you are a member of the Protected Temporary Residents Class (PTRC), please contact  your own Canadian Immigration Lawyer Bikramjit Singh to schedule a consultation meeting to know whether you meet other requirements of application for permanent residence in Canada under this class.
