If you have received a removal order, you may be able to appeal the decision to the Immigration Appeal Division (IAD) to stay in Canada.

These steps explain how to get started with your removal order appeal after:

  • an admissibility hearing of the Immigration Division of the Immigration and Refugee Board, or
  • an examination by an immigration officer

 You can appeal if you received a removal order and:

  • you are a permanent resident of Canada, or
  • you are a foreign national with a permanent resident visa, or
  • you are a Convention Refugee or Protected Person

If you are a person described above, you cannot appeal if you were found inadmissible to Canada for one of these reasons:

  • being convicted of a crime that was punished in Canada with a sentence of six months or more in a Canadian prison
  • committing or being convicted of a crime outside Canada that would be punished in Canada by a maximum prison term of ten years or more
  • being involved in organized crime (for example, by smuggling people or laundering money)
  • being a security threat (for example, by trying to overthrow a government or taking part in terrorism)
  • violating human or international rights (for example, by committing war crimes)

Immigration appeals are public.

An Immigration Appeals lawyer knows that members of the public can attend most immigration appeal hearings. Information you used in your appeal may appear in the IAD’s written decision. In addition, the decision may be published on an official website about legal choices. If a public or media member asks for a copy of the documents in your appeal, the IAD will provide one.

This cannot happen only when you or the Minister’s Counsel have asked for and obtained a confidentiality order. This can occur in exceptional circumstances, for example, if your or your child’s safety can be at risk.
