The CBSA will provide notice of its determination within 150 days after receiving notice of the Tribunal’s initiation of the expiry review, that is, no later than July 10, 2025. The Tribunal will issue its order and its statement of reasons no later than December 17, 2025.

Public submissions are to be served on counsel and those participants who are not represented by counsel. Confidential submissions are to be served only on counsel who have access to the confidential record, and who have filed Form III—Declaration and undertaking with the Tribunal. This information will be included in the list of participants. One complete electronic version of all submissions must be filed with the Tribunal.
The Tribunal will hold a hearing relating to this expiry review commencing on October 6, 2025. The type of hearing will be communicated at a later date.
