Customer Comments and Testimonials
After experiencing a Working Holiday in Toronto 10 years ago, T was able to return to Canada on an RO Visa just before reaching the age limit of 35.
Unlike the regular Working Holiday Visa, the RO Visa has a very limited number of available spots. Therefore, prompt action as soon as applications open and careful preparation of all required documents are essential.
Despite the tight timeline, we worked closely with Ms. T to review her documents and manage the application process, ultimately helping her successfully obtain her work permit.
Why did you decide to move to Canada?
I came to Toronto on a Working Holiday 10 years ago and absolutely fell in love with Canada. When I learned that I could apply for an RO Working Holiday Visa until the age of 35, I didn’t hesitate to apply!
Why did you decide to use Visa JP Canada’s services?
When I was researching how to apply, I learned that there were only a limited number of spots available for this visa. I felt that having Visa JP Canada handle my application would give me a better chance of successfully obtaining the visa than applying on my own.
What was the most memorable part of the application and visa process?
The person in charge responded very quickly and provided thorough and accurate feedback. Thanks to their guidance, I was able to prepare all of the documents I needed without missing anything.
How was your experience using Visa JP Canada’s services?
I felt very reassured throughout the entire process!
What are your hopes for your future life in Canada, and what message would you give to people planning to come to Canada?
I want to enjoy seeing how much Toronto has changed since I was there 10 years ago. I also want to travel and experience things I wasn’t able to do last time, such as going on an aurora tour and visiting the Canadian Rockies.
I hope everyone can enjoy the completely different scenery and culture that Canada has to offer compared with Japan!
Additional Comments
Thank you so much for all your help and support!
We had the pleasure of assisting Ms. T, who has extensive international experience, including Working Holiday experiences not only in Canada but also in New Zealand and Australia. Her application also involved procedures such as renewing her passport and obtaining a police certificate. However, thanks to Ms. T’s prompt cooperation throughout the process, she was able to successfully obtain her work permit. It had been 10 years since her previous stay in Canada, so there are likely many things in Toronto that have changed since her last visit. We sincerely hope that she will make the most of her RO Visa this time and enjoy all the places and experiences she was unable to experience during her previous stay.
