Canreach Immigration

A. About Canreach

1. Are you licensed by the Canadian Society of Immigration Consultants (CSIC)?
Our Canadian immigration consultants are valued members of the Canadian Society of Immigration Consultants (CSIC). We stress the importance of such membership because all of its members are bound by a strict code of ethics. As a protection to our clients we enter into a binding contract which clearly defines our obligations towards the client and the client's obligations towards us.

To verify the legitimacy of the above memberships, please check out the CSIC website at http://www.csic-scci.ca and look for the name of Mr. Jag Farmaha in their membership list.



2. Are you an agent for another immigration company?
No. We are not agents and we do not pass your case to third party consultants or lawyers. Canreach was established in Canada in 1998 with the primary objective of providing quality Canadian immigration consultancy services for migrants from all corners of the globe. All assessments, consultations, and case preparations are done by one of our own CSIC licensed immigration consultants.



3. Why do I need an Immigration Consultant?
The rights of applicants applying for immigration status to Canada are often enhanced when represented by effective legal counsel.

If you intend to hire the services of a professional to represent your interests before the Canadian immigration authorities, only Attorneys who are members in good standing of a Canadian Law Society or Consultants who are members of the Canadian Society of Immigration Consultants (CSIC) are permitted to act as your representative under Canadian law.

When hiring an individual or a company to represent you for your immigration case, you need someone who knows the latest immigration laws and procedures. You need someone who will be there for you all the time to handle your immigration case, and not just doing "part-time immigration consulting".

Consider these facts:

B. Eligibility Assessments

1. How do I know if I qualify for Canadian immigration?
To find out if you qualify for Canadian immigration, we invite you to complete our FREE online assessment form and we will personally and carefully evaluate your eligibility to immigrate to Canada as a skilled worker.



2. Who will assess my eligibility for Canadian immigration?
All assessments are personally done by our CSIC licensed immigration consultants. All assessments are done within 1 to 2 business days from the time that we receive your completed assessment form. We do not make use of automated systems that will automatically compute and assess your qualifications. We believe that each case deserves careful evaluation for Canadian immigration. Moreover, our immigration consultants will be able to give you personal advice regarding your chances of immigrating to Canada.



3. How are applications assessed under the skilled worker class?
Independent Immigrants (Skilled Workers) are accepted for entry into Canada depending on the number of points they score out of 100 in the following categories:

4. Is full time employment experience a requirement under the skilled worker class?
Canada immigration requires that an applicant has at least one year work experience.



5. Are assets or personal net worth determining factors in the selection process?
These funds are NOT a "Sina qua non" condition of admission. The six month settlement fund requirement is a policy creation implemented by the Department and is not found in the Regulations.

Visa officers have been instructed not to refuse applicants on the basis of not being able to provide the required proof of funds alone, as described in the Table 1, and to apply a number of additional factors which include, without limitation, the following criteria:

Applicants who are not able, upon request, to provide proof of funds, can petition the visa office to hold the disposition of the case in abeyance for a reasonable period of time, pending efforts by the applicant to comply with this statutory requirement.



6. Will Citizenship and Immigration Canada give me additional points for having a cousin in Canada?
No. Under Canada immigration laws you will be given additional points if you or your accompanying spouse or common-law partner has a relative residing in Canada and is a Canadian citizen or permanent resident but only the following can be considered "relatives":

a) parent
b) grandparent
c) child
d) grandchild
e) child of a parent
f) sibling
g) child of a grandparent
h) aunt or uncle
i) grandchild of a parent
j) niece or nephew



7. Do I need to have a relative in Canada in order to qualify for permanent immigration?
Having a relative in Canada will increase your score. However, this is NOT a mandatory requirement.
