Refugee Protection - Outside Canada Application

Government-Assisted Refugees (GARs)

The Refugee Protection - Government-Assisted Refugee (GAR) program is a Canadian initiative providing resettlement support to refugees identified and referred by the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees (UNHCR) or other referral organizations. GARs receive support from the Canadian government to help them integrate into Canadian society. This includes financial assistance for up to 12 months or until they are self-sufficient, along with services like housing support, language training, and community orientation.

The program aims to provide safety and a fresh start for individuals fleeing conflict, persecution, or human rights abuses. GARs are selected based on their vulnerability and need for protection, ensuring they receive the necessary support to build a new life in Canada while contributing to its multicultural fabric.

Privately Sponsored Refugees (PSRs) streams, The Refugee Protection Program under the Private Sponsorship of Refugees (PSR) initiative allows Canadian individuals or organizations to sponsor refugees from abroad. This program aims to provide protection and resettlement to refugees who are outside their home country and cannot return due to a well-founded fear of persecution.

Sponsors, including private citizens, community groups, or organizations, commit to providing financial and emotional support for the refugees for up to one year or until they achieve self-sufficiency. The PSR program enables refugees to start a new life in Canada, offering them safety and stability. Sponsors must demonstrate their ability to support the refugees financially and help them integrate into Canadian society. The program complements government-assisted refugee efforts, reflecting Canada's commitment to humanitarian relief.
