National
Ready Tours
Ready Tours are free, virtual workshops where refugee claimants prepare for their refugee hearings and learn about the refugee appeal process.
Attend a Ready Tour to learn about the refugee hearing and appeal processes from someone who works at the Immigration and Refugee Board of Canada (IRB). Ask your questions, connect with others, and learn how to prepare!
Re-Course – Simulated Refugee Hearing Program
Have a practice refugee hearing online! You will be better prepared and calmer for your real hearing with the Immigration and Refugee Board when you know what to expect.
