A typographical error in the consolidated text of the Immigration and Refugee Protection Act has been corrected. The word "ex-ited" (incorrectly split with a hyphen) has been fixed to read "exited" in the provision describing what a statutory report must include about refugee protection claimants who left and re-entered Canada. There is no change to any legal obligation, reporting requirement, or substantive rule. Organizations involved in refugee claim tracking or compliance reporting should be aware this is a cleanup change only and does not alter what must be reported.
