Refugee Hearing and Appeal Preparation
Refugee Hearing orientation sessions online
Considering recent developments related to COVID-19, we are providing Virtual Orientation Sessions.
For registrations please contact Carolina Teves at cteves@fcjrefugeecentre.org
Until further notice, all in-person hearings and mediations are suspended, except detention reviews and some admissibility hearings involving detained persons.
When hearings resume, the IRB will be flexible with respect to the application of its rules where the parties have difficulty complying with them due to the COVID-19 situation.
