A few questions.
Considered answers.
The essentials, before your first conversation.
Do I need an immigration consultant to apply to Canada?
No. You can apply yourself. Professional support may help you understand a complex situation or organise your application, but using a representative does not give your application special treatment. IRCC: using a representative ↗
How do I check whether an immigration representative is authorised?
Check the individual’s status in the relevant professional register using IRCC’s links. Confirm who will provide regulated advice, their registration, and the written scope before paying. A business name or job title alone is not proof of authorisation. IRCC: choosing an authorised representative ↗
How much does an immigration consultation cost at TMP?
The initial 15-minute screening is free. CAD 750 covers a 1–2 hour appointment with the specialist and 2–4 hours of team preparation. Any applicable taxes and the precise scope are confirmed before booking. Further case work is priced separately.
What is the easiest way to immigrate to Canada?
There is no single easiest route for everyone. Relevant pathways depend on your experience, family connections, destination, and other circumstances. Start by identifying which requirements fit your situation rather than choosing a route based on a headline. IRCC immigration pathways ↗
Can I move to Canada without a job offer?
Some routes do not require a job offer, but each has its own eligibility rules. For example, the Federal Skilled Worker Program assesses several selection factors. A job offer and permission to work are separate considerations. IRCC Federal Skilled Worker Program ↗
Can my family come with me to Canada?
It depends on your pathway and the family members involved. Including family in an application is different from sponsoring eligible relatives. Each person’s documents, status, and eligibility need to be considered. IRCC family sponsorship ↗
How long does a Canadian immigration application take?
Timing varies by application type and circumstances. Consult IRCC’s current estimates and allow for document preparation and any additional requests. Published processing times are not a promise for an individual application. IRCC processing times ↗
Does investing in Canada guarantee permanent residence?
No. An investment is not, by itself, an immigration approval. Business pathways have separate conditions and assessment processes. Confirm the current route and its requirements before committing capital. WelcomeBC entrepreneur immigration ↗
What should I prepare for the first conversation?
Prepare a short outline of your goals, current country of residence, intended destination, family circumstances, and timeline. Do not send passports or detailed financial records with your initial enquiry; wait for an agreed document-sharing process.
How do I arrange a free screening from overseas?
Use our consultation form to prepare an email, then review and send it. The team confirms availability, meeting arrangements, and time zone directly. You can choose the free screening or request the paid specialist appointment. Online calendar booking is not yet connected.
