In Rahaman v. Canada (Minister of Citizenship & Immigration) (2002), 211 D.L.R. (4th) 455, [2002] F.C.J. No. 302 (C.A.), leave to appeal to S.C.C. refused [2002] S.C.C.A. No. 183, the Court considered the meaning of the term “no credible basis”. It concluded that a no credible basis finding could be made if there was a finding that the claimant was not credible, and if the other documentary evidence filed in and of itself was not sufficient to sustain the claim.
