Client Comments
Why did you decide to immigrate to Canada?
I had lived in the United States for more than 10 years, but when I took a job in Vancouver, where the film industry is thriving, I decided to obtain permanent residence in Canada. At first, I was applying through the PNP with the employer that had sponsored my work permit, but for personal reasons I decided to leave that employer. I withdrew the PNP application, obtained a new work permit, and decided to aim for the CEC, which I could apply for on my own.
What made you choose Shiraishi VisaJP Canada?
In the United States, visa and permanent residence applications are almost 100% handled by lawyers, so I wanted to entrust my Canadian application to someone reliable as well. After researching various options, I felt that Shiraishi VisaJP Canada was trustworthy and decided on them.
How was your experience using Shiraishi VisaJP Canada’s services?
They handled everything accurately and smoothly, and I am glad I asked them.
