The Immigration and Refugee Board, Appeal Division (IRB) has granted the appeal related to an HIV-positive Zambian citizen refused admission to Canada based on "excessive demand" criteria found in the Immigration and Refugee Protection Act (IRPA). The woman had made two applications for admission to Canada. At the time of the woman's initial application, she had not been diagnosed with HIV. The appeal was granted based on humanitarian and compassionate considerations existing at the time of the first application. |
