Aiming for permanent residence from the moment they obtained a work permit, this client compared several consulting companies before asking Shiraishi VisaJP Canada to handle a permanent residence application under the Federal Skilled Worker category. With support that kept the burden on the Canadian-run employer to a minimum, the client obtained permanent residence in just about 4 months.
A rule change that occurred during the application ended up working in the client’s favour, resulting in an exceptionally fast approval.

Customer Comments and Testimonials
Why did you decide to immigrate to Canada?
My goal of obtaining permanent residence was clear from the very beginning, so I remember working desperately in my first year so that my employer would sponsor my work permit application.
What made you choose Shiraishi VisaJP Canada?
Besides work, I had other things I needed to do, such as a project of my own in Seattle, so being able to leave my permanent residence application to a proper consultant, even at some cost, was a huge point for me mentally.
I chose Shiraishi VisaJP Canada because, after visiting various immigration consulting companies in Vancouver myself, attending seminars and hearing from them directly in counselling sessions, I felt that they had the most experience. You really can tell a lot from how people answer questions and how they deal with you.
What was the most memorable part of the process?
In my case in particular, my employer was not a Japanese company but a Canadian-run one, so there were things the employer was not used to, but the consultant held detailed meetings and provided materials, so we were able to move forward with the permanent residence application while keeping the burden on my employer small. In the end, it was also great that I obtained permanent residence at the miraculous speed of four months from application.
