A Family Class Permanent Residence Application as a Common-Law Partner｜Ms. I

The precise advice based on Shiraishi VisaJP Canada’s extensive experience helped me a great deal.

Why did you decide to immigrate to Canada?

What led me to apply for permanent residence was this: my working holiday was coming to an end, and while I was torn between staying in Canada and returning to Japan, my boyfriend suggested that I consider a way in which he could support my visa by sponsoring me as his common-law partner.

What made you choose Shiraishi VisaJP Canada?

At the time, I was also considering options such as a work permit or a study permit, and I talked about permanent residence with Shiraishi VisaJP Canada, whom I had been consulting for some time. They had always responded carefully, and they gave clear, precise answers not only to my questions but also when my boyfriend joined me at a consultation, so I decided I wanted to leave the application to them as well.

What was the most memorable part of the process?

I had been told about it in advance, and I thought I had spent a whole year carefully preparing the documents for a common-law application, but some parts were not complete, which made me very anxious. There were times I felt down, worrying that the whole year would go to waste and not knowing what to do. However, Shiraishi VisaJP Canada gave me several alternative solutions, such as “Could you submit this document instead?”, and by gathering every document I could provide, I passed the document review without any problems.

Their precise advice, based on Shiraishi VisaJP Canada’s extensive experience, helped me a great deal.

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

Their flexible handling of issues such as missing documents, and how smoothly everything went after the application was submitted, really made me glad I had asked them to apply on my behalf. There was a period during the application when I was waiting in Japan, but they kept me fully updated on the progress by email and answered my questions right away. Even though they were handling it on my behalf, I could always understand my own situation immediately, they told me clearly what I needed to do next, and I never had to worry about missing an important email. All of this gave me the peace of mind that comes with leaving it to professionals.

It is a small thing, but the words of encouragement they gave me every time also helped a lot.

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

Now that I have obtained permanent residence, I no longer worry that I will have to go back someday, and I have become more confident in my work.

To those considering applying for permanent residence: Canadian immigration applications keep changing day by day, so rather than being misled by information online, I think listening carefully to professional advice is ultimately the fastest and surest path.
