Why families choose Star Immigration
Our founding consultants began their careers in India before training as immigration practitioners in Canada, and many of the families we work with have relatives in South Asia. That shapes how we work: we explain arranged marriages clearly to officers and we know which documents IRCC expects from abroad.
Every family file is handled personally by a CICC-licensed consultant, from the first relationship review to the final COPR or visa.
“Star immigration consultancy Inc. is very professional service provider, they are very honest in giving consultation.”
