Consider Moving to Canada? First Choose a good Immigration Consultant

Immigration to Canada may be a very complicated procedure, no matter you are highly skilled and wanted by Canadian employees or not. Depending on your skills including profession, language, your country of origin and passport you have it will require lots of documentation and time spent in the various procedures to obtain a visa. Canadian Immigration consultants are there to handle that job by managing your documentation, preparing you for steps in the process and give you advice. Note that not all consultants are good enough. To make that clear here are five tips when you consider hiring a Canadian Immigration Consultant.

1. Look for their certification. Only a Regulated Canadian Immigration consultant may represent you with the authorities and the ICCRC certificate is a proof of that. Most aware Regulated Immigration Consultants will feature the ICCRC logo on their website and they will have to be powered with Immigration Consultant Program certificate, which features a white maple leaf on a background of five blue circles. This is the easiest way to recognize those Certified.If it's not featured it ought to be stated in introductory text on the website. If not, feel free to e-mail them with the question regarding it.

2. Look for a consultant which already processed immigrants from your profession. Immigration Consultants need to possess good knowledge of human resources and outlooks of the Canadian labor market. This way you should get the best information if there's actually some good opportunities to find job in Canada. Many consultants focus on work with immigration applicants from certain professions, such as medics or engineers.

3. Look for a consultant who has experience with processing immigration from your country. Some countries and regions may have bilateral agreements with Canada enabling holders of their passports for easier procedures or priority in finding work to immigrants from other countries. Also you should always look if there can be some country-specific restrictions.

4. Reserve some time for contacting more consultancy firms. The more you know, the more you should get. Some immigrants may be unreasonably expensive, some may not be skilled enough and some would not match your communication preferences. Some RCIC may speak your native language which can lead to a better communication, although you are required to be proficient in English or French if you want to settle in Canada.

5. Find out about their experience and success rate. Although your chances to get a work allowance in Canada depends mainly on your skills and experience, a good consultant would always increase your chance. Likewise, a non-committed and unskilled consultant may lead to rejection although you meet all requirements to qualify for immigration.
