We expect that at this point you know enough about Canada to decide
if you have serious interest to explore practical steps. Basic
information for prospective clients is in our "About Canada"
section. (We are offering you the chance to start building a new
life in a leading prosperous country, not just a new place of
residence. Here you can find: economic prosperity, safety, education
opportunities, ... and don't forget - to achieve all that - a
lot of hard work is usually required :-) |
| *
Choose Your Way™ - our clients have enjoyed our professional guidance
system for the most efficient and proper selection of programs
for you, based on main differentiating factors. Please remember:
Canada's selection system accepts only candidates who satisfy
a specific selection system and our mission is to provide professional
services helping people to qualify and immigrate in accordance
with those requirements. |
| Independent
class
(economic
migrants) has three main sub-groups:
a)
Skilled workers - for those who have good education,
work experience, financial resources (*provincial nominees -
part of this group)
b)
Business immigrants - for those who have experience of running
their own business successfully and have strong financial position
(self-employed, enterpreneurs, investors)
c)
Assisted relatives - if you have relatives in Canada,
and qualify in a) or b) above.

| Family
class -
use our special program Family - reunite ! ™
- most of our clients' families can reunite
in Canada within 6 months. **You must have a Canadian
sponsor (a citizen or a landed immigrant) who is your close
relative and can sponsor you, by fulfilling certain financial
criteria. Sponsorship can be signed only for the following relatives:
a spouse (husband or wife), children under 19 years, or if over
19 - those who are full - time students (or disabled) and still
dependent on sponsor's support, never married; a fiance (bride
or bridegroom); parents, grandparents.. or one other relative
if the sponsor has nobody in Canada. ***The term "sponsorship"
is used often in different situations and meanings, however
for a practical purpose you should accept that the true legal
meaning of it is applicable only for family class relatives.
If you are sponsored, you don't have to prove any special education,
skills, knowledge of English and French or financial resources
to receive the landed immigrant status. You still have to prove
that genuine relationship with your sponsor exists and (with
rare exceptions) must prove that you both (together with the
sponsor) will be able to live in Canada without any government
(social) assistance. |
| Refugee
class
- we
provide legal professional support for Canadian programs that
give shelter for convention refugee applicants, those who cannot
return to their home country because of fear of persecution.
Over 20,000 people each year are landed on this program in Canada.

| * Temporary visits,
working and studying in Canada - this category is not part
of the official immigration process. These programs can be used
to exlore Canada, study or work here, make the first step towards
deciding to immigrate. **it's important to know - only those who
can prove that their plan is to return back to one's home country
can be issued a temporary visitor visa. It's much easier to receive
this visa at the port of entry (airport) for citizens of those
countries that are not required to apply at the Embassy or consulate.
The selection procedure at the consulate is more difficult. |

Other programs - very unlikely they will help you, since
less then 1% of applicants, usualy as an exception to the rule,
can use them. The secret magic solutions to get to Canada and
resolve the life's problems is mostly a fairy tale or attempt
by some unethical and not-professional people to take your money
and not deliver as promised. Yet - so many less fortunate applicants
still believe in "magic solutions", just like people
beleive in winning lottery or in casino. Heh, part of the human
nature. We decided to provide more details on those programs
that apply for very small number of candidates, so you can fully
review all the options and let us provide proper advice which
way is the best for your situation. **Best known among
them is the "humanitarian and compassionate grounds"
application. While in theory those grounds can be used to issue
a landed immigrant visa at a Canadian visa office abroad, they
almost never do so. More practically it is used by those who
are in Canada long term (usually more then 3 years, legally
or not), have fully established themselves economically and
socially (usually after several years of working as refugee
claimants), speak at least good English or French, have numerous
supporting letters of reference from employers, friends, community,
churches; would have serious difficulties if forced to apply
as indepentents outside of Canada. We have successful cases
in this program, however we use it only as last resort for those
who are in Canada long term.
