The Immigration and Refugee Board of Canada (IRB) is the tribunal that decides immigration and refugee cases. It follows the law, and uses other documents to help guide fair and consistent decisions.
The IRB also uses Chairperson’s Guidelines and selects decisions as jurisprudential guides to help members reach their decisions.
Procedures and Practice Notices help make sure processes are fair and efficient.
These papers outline key legal concepts or discuss procedural matters in immigration and refugee cases before the Board.
