The Government of Canada has welcomed over 40,000 refugees and vulnerable Afghans to Canada. We’ve done this through several programs, including

  • a humanitarian program
  • a permanent residence pathway for extended family members of former interpreters

We’re continuing to process existing applications through these special programs on a priority basis to bring Afghans to Canada.
