Obtaining PR through the humanitarian program with an expired passport? – Is it possible? Can it be done?

Let’s break it down

First, I want to clarify that I explained everything in detail in my video post, and here I will try to summarize it briefly and concisely.

The Humanitarian Program consists of two parts:

1. Humanitarian exemption (this is similar to a provincial nomination)
2. Applying for PR after receiving the humanitarian exemption

Can you apply without a passport?
You can apply for the humanitarian program even if you do not have legal status and even without a valid passport.

However, it is important to note:

• PR through the humanitarian program can only be obtained if you have status and a valid identity document.
• Receiving a humanitarian exemption serves as a basis for restoring status in Canada (if, for example, you were previously out of status).
• Status is linked to and restored based on a VALID document.
