FAQ’s

Can you help us to obtain permanent residence status in Canada? How long will it take? How much will it cost?

For individuals seeking to immigrate to Canada, we believe most applicants do not require legal assistance when there are no medical, criminal, or security issues, complicated immigration situations, or previous negative applications.

We recommend saving your resources and not engaging counsel to take complete carriage of a person’s immigration matter. The website maintained by the Department of Citizenship and Immigration should provide all the information required to apply for and obtain status in Canada. Please note that having an immigration lawyer will not make the immigration process ‘go faster’.

Our philosophy is that in the majority of cases, people only need professional advice to ensure that the application kit is well-prepared, and to answer questions before and after the submission of the immigration application kit to the processing post. Most people do not need any more than that. We have people e-mail their completed application forms for our review, along with copies of their supporting documents. We then provide a list of corrections and modifications. This helps to prevent error and delay. The cost is that of a consultation only.

For those who want us to take complete control of their application for permanent residence, we can complete all the forms for you, guide you through the journey, complete the online process, and take control of the entire immigration process. Contact us for an estimate of legal fees based on your particular case.
