Canada to Update Asylum Claim Submission Process Starting November 2026
Canada will update its asylum claim submission process starting November 3, 2026, requiring applicants with unfinished claims to log into the IRCC Portal to review and complete their applications. Information already entered will be saved if linked before November 2. Those who miss the deadline will need to answer new or previously unanswered questions in the revised system. These changes aim to modernize the process, reduce repetitive questions, and improve information completeness before claims reach the Immigration and Refugee Board of Canada.
