Opportunity is missed by most people because it is dressed in overalls and looks like work.

Dr. Rosemarie Bravo, a Physician, will be moving to Canada soon.  Her visa was issued yesterday after almost a year of processing.

Physician needed in Canada


There are things that are simply meant to be.  Dr. Bravo learned about Canadian Immigration Consultancy through her friend, who signed up a consultancy agreement with us but later on decided to withdraw her application due to some personal reasons.  Since the consultancy fee is not refundable, we allowed her to transfer her account to her friend or relative.  She then offered her account to Dr. Bravo.

Documentation process wasn't that smooth for Dr. Bravo.  Education Credential Assessment process for physicians is not just a simple process unlike other occupation.  Proof of her work experience as a Physician is also not as simple as getting an employment certificate from her employer.  But because of her dedication and commitment to her goal, plus with Canadian Immigration Consultancy's assistance and guidance, she finally made it!  She will me moving to Canada soon!

Getting help from an immigration consultant is not a guarantee that your application will be approved.  But one thing is certain, we can help you increase your chances of approval.  You can bank on Canadian Immigration Consultancy's almost 30 years of experience in the immigration constancy business.

Liberals unveil new plan for immigration focused on family reunification, middle class growth

Justin Trudeau, leader or Liberal Party, will be Canada’s next leader as a result of recently concluded Canadian election. For quite long now, the Conservatives are in power and imposed several changes in Canada's immigration policies. 

Justin Trudeau, leader or Liberal Party


Here's some good news about Canada's immigration program now that Canada's new Prime Minister is from the Liberal Party. 
“Immigration is critical to job creation and long-term economic growth for the middle class. In so many ways, Canada is what it is today thanks to the entrepreneurial spirit of those who chose to build their lives here,” said Mr. Trudeau. “During the Harper decade, our immigration system has been mismanaged, politicized, and re-oriented away from welcoming those who choose to make Canada their new and permanent home. Liberals will reform our immigration system, and make family reunification a core priority of our government.” 
Liberals will significantly improve the current immigration system to, among other things, ensure that families can stay together and successfully integrate into their new communities. We will immediately double the number of applications allowed for parents and grandparents to 10,000 each year. To help make that happen, and to restore processing times to levels that existed before the Harper decade, we will nearly double the budget for processing family class applications. In addition, we will provide greater access to applicants who have Canadian siblings, and we will restore the maximum age for dependents to 22 from 19, to allow more Canadians to bring their children to Canada. A Liberal government will also change the rules so that spouses immigrating to Canada receive immediate permanent residency, getting rid of the current two-year waiting period.
 Read the full article from the Liberal Party website.

What does it mean for those planning to live and work in Canada? What does it mean for those in Canada who have been struggling to get their family to be reunited with them in Canada?  This could only mean good news.

Then again, you need to be ready.  Immigration rules as you know changes from time to time. What is important is that when the opportunity presented itself to you, you are ready in a heart beat.

Family Class Sponsorship - Conjugal Partner (Same-Sex Partner)

When Ms. Elreen Buenconsejo first visited Canadian Immigration Consultancy - Mall of Asia Branch, she was asking for Study Visa Application.  But after a short interview to determine her eligibility, purpose and plans in the future, we discouraged her with her plan.

Family Class Sponsorship - Conjugal Partner

It turned out that she actually wanted to Study in Canada primarily to be together with her partner, Ms. Mennina, a Canadian citizen.  They were in a relationship for quite a period already but due to legal barrier, they can't get married in the Philippines.  We then suggested her to try the Family Class Sponsorship as a Conjugal Partner.  She was surprised to hear about this option and became more interested when we told her about the story of Ms. Carol. Same-Sex marriage or common-law union is legal in Canada. 

But In order for a Conjugal Partner Sponsorship, it needs a serious commitment from both partners. Otherwise, it will not work.  The challenge here is how to convince the Visa Officer that there is an emotional and financial interdependence - that there is a real and continuing relationship as a couple despite the physical separation.

If you are in a similar situation, we could be of help.  We may not be able to guarantee approval, but we can surely help you increase your chances by avoiding mistakes and proper documentation.  You may send your inquiry to canada@proimmigrationdvisers.com
