For individuals with dual nationality, pursuing a Pre-Removal Risk Assessment (PRRA) in Canada involves a more demanding legal analysis than standard cases. This is especially relevant for individuals holding Iranian and Turkish citizenship.
At Pax Law Corporation, we regularly handle complex PRRA applications involving multiple nationalities, where risk must be established across more than one country.
PRRA is a risk-based application that assesses whether a person would face:
It is typically available when a person is facing removal from Canada.
For dual nationals, the central issue is not only whether risk exists in one country, but whether the applicant can safely relocate to any country of citizenship.
If one country is considered safe, PRRA may be refused.
A strong PRRA often includes evidence that the second country may indirectly expose the applicant to harm by returning them to the original country of risk.
Many PRRA applications fail because they focus only on Iran and ignore Turkey entirely.
PRRA for dual nationals requires a two-country risk analysis. Without addressing both, the application is unlikely to succeed.
