Immigration law VC5-07836

VC5-07836

Although the initial BOCs showed similarities raising credibility concerns, the RAD found the appellant's detailed narrative and corroborating documentary and country evidence established credibility and a nexus to Convention grounds; there was insufficient evidence of significant participation in crimes for Article 1F exclusion and no state protection or viable internal flight alternative, therefore the appellant is a Convention refugee and the appeal is allowed.

  • Convention refugee status
  • Credibility assessment
  • Article 1f exclusion
  • Basis of claim (boc) similarity
  • State protection
  • Internal flight alternative

Immigration TC4-62402

TC4-62402

The Minister's redacted BOCs were admissible; the respondent's BOC contained striking, unexplained similarities to two other BOCs together with material inconsistencies, omissions and weak corroboration; those factors rebut the presumption of truth and undermine credibility, so the RPD's grant of refugee status was incorrect and is set aside with a substituted decision that the respondent is not a Convention refugee or person in need of protection.

  • Convention refugee status
  • Credibility assessment
  • Basis of claim (boc) similarities
  • Admission of evidence
  • Oral hearing
  • Disclosure/privacy
