From Express Entry and the Alberta PNP to Permanent Residence|Client K

Client K, who had used Shiraishi VisaJP Canada since the work permit application, went on to apply for permanent residence through Express Entry and the Alberta Immigrant Nominee Program (AINP). Despite struggling to achieve the required IELTS score, the client obtained permanent residence in a total of about 9 months, from Express Entry registration through the AINP application.
I was worried COVID-19 might affect processing, but I learned that if you meet all the required conditions, you can obtain permanent residence smoothly.

Customer Comments and Testimonials
What made you choose Shiraishi VisaJP Canada?
Shiraishi VisaJP Canada had helped me since my work permit application and had always supported me very attentively, so I asked them again this time without hesitation.
What was the most memorable part of the process?
Personally, the hardest part of the process of obtaining permanent residence was getting the required score on the English test (IELTS). I took it three times in total, but my reading score kept falling just 0.5 points short, and I finally got the score on my third attempt.
How was your experience using Shiraishi VisaJP Canada’s services?
One of the things I am glad about in using Shiraishi VisaJP Canada’s application service is that, from the moment I actually started the application, I was able to consult the immigration consultant in charge about very detailed points and anything I was worried about. We communicated by phone and email, and they always responded in a truly caring way, which was very reassuring. Also, when I filled out the application forms, they attached sticky notes showing where to write and added examples of how to fill them in, which was a great help.
Future outlook and a message for those planning to travel to Canada
Now that I have permanent residence, I hope to eventually open my own company or shop in Canada. Canada has vast land and many easygoing people, and people clearly separate work and personal time, so I think it offers a very good environment for thinking carefully about new visions that would be hard to imagine in Japan.
