REFUGEE CLASS & ASYLUM CLASS
Claiming refugee status from outside or inside Canada will be a very complicated
and time consuming process.
Canada offers refugee protection to some people in canada who fear persecution or who would be in
danger if they had to leave.
Some dangers they face may include the following:
If you feel you could face one of these risks if you go back to your home country or the country
where you normally live, you may be able to seek protection in Canada as a refugee.
People who can be resettled from outside
Canada fall into two classes:
CONVENTION REFUGEE ABROAD CLASS:
You may be in this class if you:
Are outside your home
country, and
cannot return there due to a well-founded fear of persecution based on:
Race, religion, political opinion, nationality
or membership in a particular social group.
COUNTRY OF ASYLUM CLASS
You may be in this class if you are outside your home
country where you normally live and have been, and continue to be, seriously and personally affected by civil war or armed conflict,
or have suffered massive violations of human rights.
