Are you currently in Canada but don’t qualify for permanent residency under traditional immigration programs? You’re not alone. Life doesn’t always follow a straight path — and for many, returning to their home country could mean facing serious hardship. The Humanitarian and Compassionate (H&C) application offers a chance to remain in Canada legally, based on your unique circumstances. This pathway is designed for people just like you — people who’ve built a life here, have deep ties to the community, and face real challenges if forced to leave.
An H&C application allows individuals in Canada to apply for permanent residency based on exceptional personal circumstances. While it is not a typical immigration program, it recognizes that some people deserve to stay in Canada even if they don’t meet the usual criteria.
Key Considerations in H&C Assessments:
Establishment in Canada (length of stay, employment, education, community ties)
Best interests of any children affected
Hardship faced if returned to country of origin
Health concerns, safety issues, or lack of medical care abroad
General compassionate grounds based on your life situation
Each case is unique — and thoroughly assessed by immigration officers.
Applying on Humanitarian and Compassionate grounds can be complex. It’s more than just forms — it’s about telling your story in a way that resonates and meets legal standards. Here’s how I can help:
