Canada’s Immigration Minister Sean Fraser has announced that the third plane under the Canada-Ukraine Authorization for Emergency Travel, carrying 306 Ukrainian refugees has arrived at Halifax’s Stanfield International Airport.

Ukraine Authorization for Emergency Travel

Quote by Immigration Minister Sean Fraser:

“We’ll continue to provide support for those fleeing Putin’s war before and after they arrive in Canada and do everything, we can to make them feel at home. Canada is doing everything it can to support Ukrainians before and after they arrive in Canada”

 

“Canada is doing everything it can to support Ukrainians before and after they arrive in Canada. Millions of Ukrainians have been displaced and forced to flee their homes, and these charter flights will help make sure that those who want to come to Canada have the support they need. We’ll continue to work with provinces and territories, settlement organizations, and NGOs to make sure Ukrainians feel at home in their new communities.”

 

Quote by Karina Gould, Minister of Families, Children and Social Development:

“As Canada welcomes individuals seeking safe haven from the war in Ukraine, the government of Canada stands ready to support them and provide them with the resources to take care of themselves and their families. Service Canada will help ensure that services are delivered in a secure and timely way.”

 

The Canada-Ukraine Authorization for Emergency Travel program started accepting applications back in March and enables Canadian employers to include jobs for Ukrainians in the country’s online job bank.

 

Under this program, the refugees can stay in Canada for up to 36 months and will be

eligible for free open work/study permits. Any Ukrainian student, worker, or visitor who

is already in Canada on a temporary basis can also apply to extend their stay.

 

If any of these displaced refugees do not have a place to stay, the IRCC is also providing up to 14 nights of accommodation for them. 

 

Canadians can contribute to the relief measures by donating their flight points to help cover the cost of flights for Ukrainian refugees.

Introducing the TRP Holder Class

A TRP (Temporary Resident Permit) is a document that authorizes a person who is inadmissible for a work or student visa to enter or stay in Canada. These are issued for people who do not meet the requirements of the Immigration and Refugee Protection Act to enter or stay in Canada as temporary or permanent residents.    If a person traveling to Canada is deemed inadmissible, the family they are traveling with may also not be allowed to enter the country.
