Pre-Removal Risk Assessment – PRRA

  • Home
  • Pre-Removal Risk Assessment

You may be eligible to apply for a pre-removal risk assessment (PRRA) if you are being removed from Canada.

A Canada Border Services Agency (CBSA) officer tells you if you are eligible. If you are eligible, a Canada Border Services Agency (CBSA) officer will give you an application form and guide. You will be able to apply for PRRA before being removed from Canada.

In most cases, a 12-month waiting period applies if

  • you abandon or withdraw your refugee claim, or the Immigration and Refugee Board rejects your claim
  • you abandon or withdraw another PRRA application, or it is refused.
  • the Federal Court refuses your attempt to have your refugee claim or PRRA decision reviewed
  • All Fields Are Required
