Acceptance Rate Dept: And with new regulations to be laid out by the federal government in mid-December, some critics worry that the changes will make it even more difficult for refugees to seek shelter when they arrive at Canadian borders, according to The Star. So far this year, the acceptance rate is around 28 per cent, with 2,449 claims accepted out of 8,646 cases and canada s acceptance rates for refugees have declined substantially since 2006 when the Conservative Party took office. Data from the Immigration and Refugee Board of Canada IRB recently released to shows that in 2011, the overall acceptance rate for the top 10 source countries which include Hungary, China, Colombia, Pakistan, Namibia, Mexico and Nigeria was 31 per cent, roughly 4,800 claims accepted out a total of more than 15,500 cases.
