Calgary Immigration Consultant

Calgary Regulated Canadian Immigration Consultants (RCIC)

In Canada, you need to be authorized with the right credentials to act on behalf of an applicant with Citizenship and Immigration Canada.  These special individuals are known as Regulated Canadian Immigration Consultants (RCIC) and are accredited by the Immigration Consultants of Canada Regulatory Council (ICCRC).  

Immigration consultants need to pass an academic requirement before they become a full member of ICCRC to help immigration clients with their applications.  There are many cases of fraudulent activities related to immigration consultants with no diploma or ICCRC memberships.  Please be cautious when dealing with other consultants and ask for their credentials! 

What does a Regulated Canadian Immigration Consultant do?  

A Regulated Canadian Immigration Consultant will most commonly help our clients with their immigration applications to Canada.  They have many important responsibilities during an immigration process such as:

  • Assessing the client’s situation and advising on which immigration option to take
  • Preparing clients for VISA interviews if necessary
  • Preparing and reviewing of immigration applications to ensure accuracy of documents
  • Assisting clients in all forms of immigration to Canada;
  • Family sponsorships
  • Temporary Residence
  • Claiming Refugee Status
  • Permanent Residence
  • Student/Work Permit
  • Provincial Nominee Applications (PNP)
  • Employing Foreign Workers and more                                                                        

Our immigration consultants may also provide alternative methods of immigration to Canada and will give you sound advice.  Please see them for more information.

At Shim Law, our immigration consultants and lawyers work together to accomplish one goal – to find the best legal approach to immigration to Canada.
