Fatumah Najjuma's deportation date had been set for Jan. 7. But after garnering tens of thousands of signatures in an online petition, a campaign by advocacy groups and telling her story to CBC News, her removal was delayed in late December.
On Friday, she received word that her permanent resident application on humanitarian grounds was granted.
Her deportation date had been set for Jan. 7. But after garnering tens of thousands of signatures in an online petition, a campaign by advocacy groups and telling her story to CBC News, her removal was delayed in late December. "It doesn't make sense to create exceptional measures for each person; we need systematic changes and that means full and permanent immigration status for every migrant including workers, students, refugees and undocumented people."
That means while a change could soon be coming to ease the path to permanent residence for those in Najjuma's position, she could have nevertheless been deported while the specifics are ironed out.
