Humanitarian & Compassionate applications
Building the full picture of a life — the way H&C decisions are actually weighed.
Humanitarian and Compassionate (H&C) applications ask a decision-maker to consider the whole picture of a life in Canada: establishment, hardship if required to leave, family ties, and — where children are involved — their best interests. These are documentation-driven applications, won or lost on the strength of the record.
Factors that are weighed
- Establishment in Canada — work, community, and home
- Hardship that would follow from leaving
- The best interests of any children affected
- Family ties and other compelling circumstances
How we help
- Identifying the factors that matter most in your situation
- Gathering evidence for each of them, thoroughly
