The Immigration and Refugee Board of Canada (IRB) is Canada's largest independent administrative tribunal, and operates at arm’s length from government. The IRB is responsible for resolving immigration and refugee cases efficiently, fairly and in accordance with the law. All IRB decisions have an impact on the lives and security of the individuals appearing before the IRB. They contribute to the security of Canadians, the integrity of Canada's immigration and refugee systems, and the strength and diversity of our nation. Refugees and immigrants have always been part of Canadian history and will continue to help shape our future.
