Shiraishi VisaJP Canada supports clients across multiple stages of their journey, from an LMIA-based work permit through to Family Class permanent residence. In this case, we share the story of Ms. R, who first came to us as a student in Canada and went on to obtain permanent residence after six years here.
The immigration consultant was thorough and quick to respond from beginning to end, and I am very satisfied.

Key Points from the Consultant
Ms. R was a student in Canada when she first contacted us. With the support of the employer she was working for at the time she obtained an LMIA work permit, and after marrying she went on to apply for permanent residence through the Family Class.
We are delighted that Ms. R, who used our services over such a long period, has become a permanent resident.
Immigration Consultant
Born in Japan. Worked in tour planning and led international tours at a major travel agency, visiting dozens of countries. After immigrating to Canada in 2003, she worked at a software company in Montreal focusing on the Japanese market. She studied Immigration Consulting at Vanier College and became a licensed immigration consultant. Wanting to support the Japanese community more actively, she relocated to Vancouver where she currently resides and works.
Client Comments
Why did you decide to immigrate to Canada?
I felt that the way people work and live here, which is different from Japan, suited me. Another reason is that Canadians share many traits with Japanese people, so I thought I would be able to live in a comfortable atmosphere.
What made you choose Shiraishi VisaJP Canada?
In my first free consultation I received detailed information, and that made me feel I would receive attentive support.
What was the most memorable part of the process?
The period between filing and approval felt very long and I became anxious many times. Even then, Shiraishi VisaJP Canada answered my questions quickly and carefully, so I was able to wait for the result with peace of mind.
How was your experience using Shiraishi VisaJP Canada’s services?
Both the counsellor and the immigration consultant were thorough and quick to respond from beginning to end, and I am very satisfied.
Future outlook and a message for those planning to travel to Canada
Through six years of life in Canada, I have come to understand that staying abroad is never easy. From the moment I arrived on a working holiday visa, I was always planning how to obtain my next visa. Without that kind of forward-looking action, I have seen many people whose visas expired and who had no choice but to return home. If you can plan for the future while still enjoying life abroad, I think it will be a wonderful experience.
