Appellants
The Refugee Appeal Division (RAD) decides appeals of decisions made by the Refugee Protection Division (RPD) to allow or reject claims for refugee protection. In most cases, the RAD will proceed without a hearing, on the basis of the documents provided by the parties and the RPD record.
Refugee Claims
To ensure the timeliness of the refugee hearing process, the Immigration and Refugee Board of Canada (IRB) collaborates with several non-governmental organizations (NGO) to help refugee claimants prepare for their upcoming hearings through Ready Tours.
