Why choose an Immigration Consultant?
You are not required to hire an immigration consultant or a lawyer to have your immigration application submitted. However, hiring a professional to provide guidance on eligibility requirements and to handle your application may increase your chances of success and help you avoid errors that may be difficult, or even impossible, to correct in the future. It’s much easier to do it right the first time.
To be authorized to practice Immigration Law in Canada, immigration consultants must be members in good standing of the Immigration Consultants Regulatory Council of Canada (ICCRC). To become ICCRC members, consultants have to complete a designated Immigration Law program, go through a background check, and pass the entry to practice exam. Regulated Canadian Immigration Consultants are also required to complete a substantial number of hours of professional training each year to ensure they are up-to-date on Immigration Laws and Regulations so they are able to provide accurate and informed immigration advice to their clients.
