On April 26, 2022, the Government of Canada introduced new instructions regarding in-Canada claims for refugee protection. The Immigration and Refugee Board (IRB) and the Global Case Management System (GCMS) have updated the Nova system to transfer and receive information via the electronic sharing between the Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada (IRCC), the Canada Border Services Agency (CBSA) and the IRB. No later than June 30, 2022, IRCC, the CBSA, and the IRB will start using the new updated system.
