H&C

Are you out of status in Canada?

Or

Are you well-established in Canada but not getting your PR?

WE CAN HELP!

What is an H&C Application?

An H&C (Humanitarian and Compassionate) application allows certain foreign nationals in Canada to request Permanent Resident (PR) status based on exceptional circumstances. 

This pathway is available to those who:

Are living in Canada and require an exemption from specific requirements under the Immigration and Refugee Protection Act (IRPA) to apply for PR.
Cannot apply for PR through other in-Canada programs, such as the Spouse or Common-Law Partner class, Caregiver programs, or as a Protected Person.

H&C applications consider factors such as your level of establishment in Canada, the best interests of any children involved, and the hardships you might face if required to leave the country.

WHO CANNOT APPLY:

Canadian citizens and current PR holders.
Individuals with an outstanding refugee claim or a pending H&C application.
Designated foreign nationals within the last 5 years

Who qualifies for an H and C application?

Ideal candidates for an H&C application are those who have lived in Canada for several years and may not qualify for other permanent residence programs, such as the Express Entry or PNP Program, which evaluates applicants based on factors like education, work experience, and language proficiency

Often, these individuals may be in lower-skilled jobs or have limited formal education but have demonstrated their ability to sustain themselves in Canada. 

Best Interests of the Child

When reviewing an H&C application, immigration officers must consider the best interests of any child directly impacted by the decision. This includes children both within and outside of Canada, regardless of their citizenship or residency status. Key factors include:

The child's relationship with the applicant.
The child's age and level of dependence on the applicant.
Any medical issues or special needs the child may have.
The overall impact of the application’s outcome on the child.
