Appeals, Refugee & H&C Cases

When your case needs compassion, legal strategy, and strong representation—Velox Immigration is here.

Denied? At Risk? Seeking Protection? We Can Help.

Immigration isn't always a straightforward path. If your application has been refused, you're facing removal, or you're in Canada under exceptional circumstances, Velox Immigration provides professional support for appeals, refugee claims, and humanitarian & compassionate (H&C) applications. We're here when the stakes are highest.

Who This Is For

This service is ideal for:

  • Individuals with a refused visa or sponsorship application
  • Permanent residents facing loss of status or removal orders
  • Refugee claimants in need of legal representation before the IRB
  • Foreign nationals in Canada applying for H&C consideration due to hardship
  • Clients seeking judicial review or appeals before the Immigration Appeal Division (IAD)

What We Offer

We represent and support clients through complex, high-stakes immigration matters:

Appeals (IAD)

We handle immigration appeals for sponsorship refusals, residency obligation breaches, and removal orders. Our services include gathering evidence, preparing legal submissions, coordinating with counsel, and representing you at hearings before the IAD.

Refugee Claims

We represent individuals claiming asylum in Canada based on fear of persecution, risk to life, or cruel and unusual treatment. We assist with claim preparation, form completion (Basis of Claim), supporting documentation, and representation at the Immigration and Refugee Board (IRB).

Humanitarian & Compassionate (H&C) Applications

When you have compelling personal circumstances and no other pathway to remain in Canada, we build a strong H&C application. We highlight hardship, establishment in Canada, best interests of children, and other compassionate grounds to support your case.

What You Need to Apply

For Appeals:

  • A copy of the refusal letter or removal order
  • Supporting legal and factual documentation
  • Evidence of genuine relationships, residency, or rehabilitation (as applicable)

For Refugee Claims:

  • Completed Basis of Claim (BOC) Form
  • Passport and identity documents
  • Medical or psychological reports (if applicable)
  • Country condition evidence and personal narrative

For H&C Applications:

  • Detailed personal statement
  • Supporting letters, community support, or proof of establishment in Canada
  • Medical or hardship documentation
  • Proof of best interests of any children involved
  • Country-specific documentation showing hardship or risk

We carefully evaluate and compile all necessary material, providing full legal submissions that present your case with clarity and compassion.

Frequently Asked Questions

The IAD is a tribunal where you can appeal certain immigration decisions—like sponsorship refusals, removal orders, or loss of PR status.
