Canada: Economic Mobility Pathways Pilot

Who can apply

There are 3 sets of eligibility requirements you must meet to apply for the EMPP.

1. You must be a refugee or displaced person

To prove this, you must have one of these documents

• a positive Refugee Status Determination (RSD) from the UN Refugee Agency or a refugee-hosting state
• proof you’re registered or recorded as a person of concern by the UN Refugee Agency
• a refugee certificate from the United Nations Relief and Works Agency for Palestine in the Near East (UNRWA)
• proof of being registered or recorded as a person of concern with UNRWA
• proof you have temporary protected status and a copy of the completed durable solution information form (IMM 0195)
  • If you apply with a temporary protected status document, an officer will need to assess your case and decide if you don’t have a durable solution.

If you don’t have any of the above documents, one of our trusted partners can

• assess your eligibility as a refugee or displaced person and
• issue you a referral letter, if they find you meet the criteria

You must be living outside Canada when you apply to the EMPP.
