Refugee Application Services by Cougar Immigration
If you're facing persecution, violence, or serious threats to your life or freedom in your home country, you may be eligible to seek protection in Canada as a refugee. At Cougar Immigration, we help you build a strong, compassionate, and legally sound refugee claim—giving you a chance to start again in safety.
We support individuals who need Canada's protection under international law and guide them through the complex refugee determination process with care, experience, and urgency.
Who Can Claim Refugee Protection in Canada?
You may be eligible to make a refugee claim in Canada if you:
- Are currently in Canada
- Cannot return to your home country due to a well-founded fear of persecution based on:
- Race
- Religion
- Nationality
- Political opinion
- Membership in a particular social group (e.g., LGBTQ+, women, ethnic minorities)
- Face a real risk of torture, cruel treatment, or death
- Are not inadmissible due to serious criminality, past refugee claims, or security concerns
There are two paths to protection:
- Refugee Protection Claim from Inside Canada
- Resettlement from Outside Canada (UNHCR referral or private sponsorship)
What IRCC and IRB Look For in a Refugee Claim
The Immigration and Refugee Board (IRB) will assess your claim based on:
- Your personal narrative and credibility
- Documented evidence of persecution or risk
- Country conditions and human rights records
- Your ability to demonstrate that Canada is your only safe option
- Your compliance with immigration rules once in Canada
A poorly prepared claim or missing evidence can result in a refusal and a removal order.
