Before Canada removes a foreign national, they may be entitled to a Pre-Removal Risk Assessment (PRRA)—a final opportunity to demonstrate that they face danger if returned to their country of origin. If successful, a PRRA may stop your removal and result in protected person status.
At Sunder Law, we support individuals at critical moments in their immigration journey, helping them prepare comprehensive, timely, and compelling PRRA applications to present to the Minister of Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada (IRCC).
We evaluate your individual risk factors, including threats of torture, persecution, risk to life, or risk of cruel and unusual treatment in your home country.
Our legal team gathers and submits strong supporting evidence such as medical reports, affidavits, country condition documents, and prior refugee claim details.
We ensure all documentation is submitted within the strict timelines outlined in the PRRA process and liaise with government authorities on your behalf.
We draft compelling legal arguments aligned with Canadian jurisprudence to demonstrate the serious risks you face upon return.
