Conflict in Sudan: Temporary immigration measures
Sudanese nationals in Canada may want to extend their stay because the conflict in Sudan is preventing them from returning home.
Canadian citizens, permanent residents of Canada and their foreign national family members have also had to suddenly flee the country.
As a result, we’ve put in place temporary immigration measures for those affected.
