In Canada, applications for leave and judicial review in Federal Court regarding immigration matters can be filed by individuals directly affected by decisions made by immigration authorities.
Any individual who has been directly affected by a decision of an immigration authority, such as Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada (IRCC) or the Immigration and Refugee Board (IRB), can file an application for leave and judicial review in the Federal Court. This includes applicants for immigration benefits, refugee claimants, permanent residents, and individuals facing deportation or removal orders.
