Turned Down Again and Again for a Common-Law Application Before Finding Shiraishi VisaJP Canada|Ms. S

Date Posted:August 9, 2016

Last Updated:September 24, 2026

After returning to Japan due to family circumstances, Ms. S hoped to obtain permanent residence to live with her Canadian partner again. Turned down by many consultants because of the long period they had lived apart, she asked Shiraishi VisaJP Canada to handle a Family Class (common-law) application. Despite the challenge of collecting an enormous number of documents, with careful support from the consultant in charge, she obtained permanent residence in 11 months.

The passion of both the client and our team came through, resulting in permanent residence! Even if your situation seems difficult, don’t give up and consult us.

Client Comments

Why did you decide to immigrate to Canada?

Due to family circumstances, I returned to Japan with my child, but I came to want to obtain permanent residence so that I could live in Canada again with my common-law partner, a Canadian man who is my child’s father.

What made you choose Shiraishi VisaJP Canada?

Because we had been living apart for a long time, no consultant would take my case, and I was searching desperately. I had been looking only at consultants in Tokyo or Toronto, but I was getting nowhere, so I consulted Shiraishi VisaJP Canada in Vancouver without much hope, and they agreed to take my case.

What was the most memorable part of the process?

However, preparing the application in step with him, since he lives separately and does things at his own pace, was really hard. As we were not married and had lived apart for a long time, the documents we had to gather were enormous, and all of them were difficult to collect. The person in charge even took the trouble to call him directly. I don’t think we could ever have made it without their support, and above all, I am grateful that they took on a case like ours.

How was your experience using Shiraishi VisaJP Canada’s services?

The information differed completely depending on the consultant or company, and I was often told things that were not correct (I will never forget who said what, lol). I think the important thing is to find a place you can trust. Ms. Yamashita, who handled my case, told me clearly, “I think this will be a difficult application,” so I was anxious until the very end, but I trusted her completely and had made up my mind that if this didn’t work, I would give up!! But she did her very best, and in the end the application was approved.

Future outlook and a message for those planning to travel to Canada

I think it is about cherishing the feeling that you cannot give up, and exploring every possible path so that you have no regrets. If you want to live in Canada permanently, I believe the way will open if you knock on Shiraishi VisaJP Canada’s door early and act quickly as advised.
Thank you so much.
