Because obtaining permanent residence in the United States had become uncertain, Client N considered moving to Canada and asked Shiraishi VisaJP Canada to handle a study permit application, followed by a Post-Graduation Work Permit (PGWP) application. With precise advice that included choosing a PGWP-eligible school, the client obtained the PGWP in approximately 5 months.

Customer Comments and Testimonials
Reporting My PGWP and Saying Thank You
My PGWP has now been issued safely, and I am full of gratitude to Ms. Shiraishi, staff member Takinami, and everyone at Shiraishi VisaJP Canada.
What made you choose Shiraishi VisaJP Canada?
The first visa I asked Ms. Shiraishi to handle was a study permit about two years ago.
At the time, I was working in the United States with the aim of immigrating there, but immigration policy changed, and because obtaining permanent residence in the U.S. had become uncertain, I began considering moving to Canada and first consulted Ms. Shiraishi. She gave me precise advice that, in my case, studying at a school whose graduates are eligible for a PGWP would be the shortest route to Canadian permanent residence, and she arranged my study permit.
What was the most memorable part of the process?
I graduated from university last year, and I have now obtained a PGWP valid for three years, just as I had hoped.
How was your experience using Shiraishi VisaJP Canada’s services?
Canada’s immigration system is updated frequently, but thanks to Ms. Shiraishi’s extensive expertise and wealth of information, I have been able to come this far without losing my way.
Future outlook and a message for those planning to travel to Canada
I would like to apply for permanent residence eventually, so I look forward to your continued support.
