Fraser pressed on why Immigration has not approved 2,900 Afghans who helped Canada

Only 900 of the 3,800 Afghans with with their credentials checked have had their applications to come to Canada accepted so far.

Kwan is demanding Immigration Minister Sean Fraser explain why the Afghans, whose credentials were checked and verified by Canada’s military, have not had their applications to come to Canada approved.

The government has committed tobringing18,000 Afghans and their families to Canada who served as interpreters for the Canadian Armed Forces, or worked at the Embassy of Canada, or had some other enduring or significant ties with Canada. “With every single passing day, the risks are heightened for Afghans,” Kwan said. “And for those who served this country and their loved ones, it is wrong that the government has left them behind.”

IRCC then sends an email to the people on that list inviting them to apply, she said. Only people who receive an invitation are able to apply for the special program.
