Canada offers several avenues for refugees and individuals in humanitarian situations to obtain permanent residence. At Shakir Immigration Consulting Services, we provide expert guidance on the following programs
This program allows Canadian citizens and permanent residents to sponsor eligible refugees from abroad, providing them with financial and emotional support for the first year in Canada. Sponsors can be
Five or more Canadian citizens or permanent residents who collectively sponsor a refugee living abroad. Note: As of November 29, 2024, new applications from Groups of Five are temporarily paused, except through the Blended Visa Office-Referred (BVOR) Program.
Organizations that have a formal agreement with the Canadian government to sponsor refugees. SAHs can work independently or with Constituent Groups to fulfill sponsorship responsibilities.
Organizations, associations, or corporations that sponsor refugees. Similar to G5, new applications are currently paused, with exceptions for the BVOR Program.
Humanitarian and Compassionate (H&C) Applications offer a path to permanent residence for those who don’t qualify through other programs. Each case is reviewed individually, considering your ties to Canada, personal hardships, and the best interests of any children involved.
Navigating Canada’s refugee and humanitarian pathways can be challenging. At Shakir Immigration Consulting Services, we provide eligibility assessments, application support, and step-by-step guidance to help individuals and organizations make a lasting impact in the lives of refugees.
