Who Are Asylum Seekers?

An asylum seeker is a person who has fled their home country and seeks protection in another country due to fear of persecution, violence, or serious harm. In Canada, asylum seekers may request protection upon arrival or after entering the country.
Claims for asylum are assessed under Canadian immigration law and international protection obligations by the Immigration and Refugee Board of Canada.
