Proposed change to Age of dependent children: Comments

Summary

The attached document forms the comments of the Canadian Council for Refugees on the proposed amendments to the Immigration and Refugee Protection Regulations, published in the Canada Gazette, Part I, on 29 October 2016.

CCR strenuously opposed the 2014 change reducing age of dependants. We welcome the government’s proposal to revert to the previous maximum age of under 22 years.
