Understanding the Safe Third Country Agreement

Did you know that most refugees coming from the U.S. cannot apply for asylum in Canada due to the Safe Third Country Agreement (STCA)? This agreement requires asylum seekers to claim refugee status in the first safe country they arrive in—meaning those entering from the U.S. are generally ineligible.

However, there are four key exceptions that allow certain individuals to seek refugee protection in Canada:

1. Family reunification – If you have eligible family members in Canada.
2. Unaccompanied minors – Children under 18 with no parent or guardian in either country.
3. Risk of serious harm – If returning to the U.S. poses a significant danger.
4. Other exemptions – Certain policy-based or humanitarian grounds.

Understanding these exceptions is crucial for those seeking protection. If you or someone you know needs guidance on refugee claims, we’re here to help.

• Immigration Division (ID): Reviews admissibility and detention cases for foreign nationals and permanent residents.

• Immigration Appeal Division (IAD): Handles appeals on immigration-related decisions, including sponsorship and removal orders.

• Refugee Protection Division (RPD): Assesses refugee claims made by individuals.

• Refugee Appeal Division (RAD): Reviews appeals of refugee protection decisions made by the RPD.

As experienced IRB immigration practitioners, we can provide expert representation and guidance at every stage of the process. Whether you're facing an admissibility hearing, filing an appeal, or seeking refugee protection, we are here to advocate for you.
