Normally, you need to be a resident of Nunavut to be eligible for legal aid. If you have a court matter in Nunavut but do not live in Nunavut, you may still be eligible if: • You have significant ties to Nunavut including being born or raised in • If you think you should qualify for Legal Aid, we recommend that you apply and explain why you should be eligible on your application. The decision to waive the residency requirement is at the discretion of our CEO.
