Client Comments
Why did you decide to immigrate to Canada?
After graduating from flight school, I was looking for a country where I could build my career locally, and the country I arrived at was Canada.
Many Canadian airlines allow you to work with a work permit or PR. Canada also has many past cases of Japanese people obtaining various visas, and compared with other countries, it takes less time to meet the requirements for a visa application and approval is relatively likely, so I chose Canada.
What made you choose Shiraishi VisaJP Canada?
However, even though visas are relatively easy to obtain, I could not afford to overlook an application requirement or leave out any documents, so on a friend’s recommendation, I decided to have Shiraishi VisaJP Canada act as my consultant.
How was your experience using Shiraishi VisaJP Canada’s services?
My consultant, Ms. Shiraishi, was very easy to communicate with, and thanks to her, my Post-Graduation Work Permit (PGWP) application went very smoothly and I successfully obtained my PGWP.
Future outlook and a message for those planning to travel to Canada
I am planning to continue asking Shiraishi VisaJP Canada for consulting support toward obtaining permanent residence.
The number of people who attend flight school in Canada and then pursue a career as a pilot here may still be small, but I think it has been gradually increasing in recent years.
To achieve the goal of becoming a pilot in Canada, getting a pilot licence is of course necessary, but more than that, obtaining a visa is an absolute must. So as not to waste all your hard work in training, I think it is important to talk things through thoroughly with visa professionals and do what you can to raise your chances of getting a visa.
