Applying for asylum in Canada through UNHCR
Let us agree first that there is no guarantee that the asylum application will be accepted from inside or outside Canada, and that anyone who offers you to pay him an amount of money in order to secure asylum for you in Canada is a quorum without any doubt and 1000%.
If you are fleeing your country because you fear persecution, you can apply for asylum in Canada. If you are granted asylum, this gives you refugee status and the right to stay.
To apply for asylum, you must be physically present in Canada or be seeking entry into the country at a port of entry.
You can apply for asylum if you fear persecution for at least one of the following reasons:
Race or nationality
For example: You fear persecution because you are part of an ethnic or language minority group.
Religion
For example: You fear persecution because you are part of a religious minority or because you have converted to another religion.
Member of a particular social group
For example: You have been subject to violence because of your sexual orientation or gender, or you fear persecution because of your family ties.
Political opinion
For example: You are a journalist or blogger, a human rights activist, or you are or are perceived as a government opponent.
Or if you fear one of the following:
Risk to your life or cruel and inhuman treatment
You are facing a personal risk that is not faced by the general population. For example: You are the victim of a crime or you are afraid of revenge.
Risk of torture
You have been subject or risk being subject to severe mental or physical harm committed by the government authorities (under their orders or with their consent) to get information from you or to punish you.
Both methods have their advantages and disadvantages
🍁 1- Submitting asylum from outside Canada, through the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees. You must be outside your country to be recognized as a refugee:
✔ You cannot choose the country, the UNHCR is the one who chooses the place for your resettlement.
✔ Approvals and resettlement take about two to three years, and it may take longer, depending on the pressure to review applications.
✔ Priority for people with special needs, critical cases and those threatened by security
✔ The holder of UNHCR recognition can search for a sponsor if the resettlement decision is long-awaited
✔ UNHCR takes care of all travel and living expenses, unless the family settles down and is able to integrate into society.
🍁 2-Providing asylum from inside Canada
✔ The asylum seeker can live, work, and submit children’s studies during the case period, unless a ruling of refusal is issued against him.
✔ The officer may refuse the request from the airport after the interview, so some prefer to seek asylum after entering Canadian territory from the Ministry of Immigration, to ensure his entry. A date for the case hearing is set for him.
✔ The decision is up to the judge, and most requests recently are rejected, but those whose request is rejected have the right to appeal.

The basis of the Commission's tasks is to provide international protection to asylum seekers and refugees, and accordingly the Commission receives asylum applications from asylum seekers, considers them and makes a decision regarding the acceptance of granting asylum. UNHCR is conducting a comprehensive study of the needs and situation of the refugee and his family to try to find suitable solutions for them. The resettlement solution is one of the solutions provided by the UNHCR according to certain procedures and standards, as the decision to resettle is up to the resettlement country and not to the UNHCR.
I contacted the UNHCR office and my data was taken. Does this mean that I am registered with the UNHCR and have a file number?
