Six pathways, a single point of contact
Every mandate carries the name of a program, a deadline and a price settled in advance. From day one you know what will be filed, when, and by whom.
By situation
Finding the right pathway before paying anything at all
The first conversation serves to name your program. If none suits you today, we say so, and we explain what is missing.
Settling for good, by the federal route or through Quebec. The score, the evidence and the schedule of rounds decide the path.
- Express Entry — skilled workers
- Arrima and the Quebec Selection Certificate
- Provincial Nominee Programs
Bringing your family over. The sponsor’s eligibility is checked first — that is where most refusals are decided.
- Sponsoring a spouse and a dependent child
- Parents and grandparents
- The super visa as an interim solution

The mandate
What is included, whatever the pathway
A named list of documents
Not a generic template: the list is drawn up for your situation, with the form required for each document.
Writing the letters
Letter of explanation, proof of ties, study or settlement plan — written and then revised with you.
A second reading
Every form is read over by a second regulated consultant before filing. Nothing goes out without that reading.
Follow-up through to the decision
Acknowledgement of receipt, requests for further documents, biometrics, medical examination: we reply within 72 business hours.
After a refusal
A refusal is not the end of the road
An unfavourable decision almost always comes down to a missing document, an inconsistency in dates or a letter that did not answer the question asked. We request the officer’s notes, we read them, and we tell you whether a new application is worth it.
- Request for access to the Global Case Management System notes
- Reading the real reason, beyond the form letter
- A frank opinion: refile, correct, or change program
- A new application built document by document
First assessment — at no charge
Tell us where you stand. We will tell you what is possible.
Thirty minutes with a regulated consultant, an honest picture of your options, and the exact cost before anything at all begins.
