As part of the º£½ÇÉçÇø Pride Week 2025, we are excited to host a 60-minute webinar on navigating Canadian immigration pathways specifically for LGBTQ+ communities. Led by Ansari Immigration Law, a Calgary-based boutique immigration law firm, this session will provide crucial information for individuals seeking to immigrate to Canada, including refugee claims based on sexuality, post-graduation work permits, and pathways to permanent residency (PR).
During the presentation, the expert legal team will cover key topics related to immigration laws and regulations impacting LGBTQ+ individuals. A live Q&A session will follow, allowing participants to ask specific questions. This is a must-attend event for anyone interested in understanding their legal rights and the steps to immigrate or seek refugee status in Canada safely.
On March 18, 2025, Ansari Law will also be offering a free Virtual legal clinic for Pride Week.
