🚨 NEW IMMIGRATION LAW IN CANADA 🚨
Bill C-12 is now law and it changes who can access refugee protection in Canada.
New rules now limit when a claim can be made:
– More than 1 year after entry → may be refused at the door
– More than 14 days after irregular border crossing → may not be accepted
Some existing claims may also be reassessed under these rules.
This is a major shift from access to protection → to strict eligibility screening.
Know your options early. Timing now matters more than ever.
