How to Choose an Immigration Expert for Canadian Startup Visa Program?
Spot the immigration leaders
Startup Visa immigration specialists constantly deliver measurable results and support their clients all the way to a Canadian Permanent Residency (PR). To start the client onboarding process, we do the following:
Thoroughly examine a client’s entire background,
Take into account any work experience and educational features,
Carry out business due-diligence on proposed idea,
Examine the potential fit of each individual into the team and into the program itself.
This approach ensures that the immigration process will proceed in a way that accomplishes 2 very important objectives of the Canadian PR application:
Meets and exceeds Canadian government PR application requirements,
Prepares all applicants for launching their Startup while they are going through immigration.
Anyvisa specialists and immigration consultants have strong due-diligence selection procedures in place, so that every PR applicant is chosen based on eligibility standards designed to achieve success and avoid unexpected surprises.
Look for Startup Visa relevant track record
Business clients also need to be better educated and genuinely instructed about Startup Visa program requirements. We thoroughly explain to our clients the business side of running a new venture in Canada and help them to be ready to collaborate with all parties involved in the project – partners, investors, legal team, and government officials. Since early 2014 (the first year of active processing of Startup Visa files) our lead expert and Senior Partner Dr. Alex Titov has been providing unique practical training to Lawyers and Consultants across Canada as part of CPD (Continuous Professional Development) courses. We cover this in more detail in our multiple tutorial videos and regular webinars that you can watch on our
Youtube Channel.
Give preference to a multicultural Startup Visa application experience
Even though each PR applicant’s goal is the same – to immigrate to Canada – the cultural differences pose unique challenges for immigration lawyers and consultants about how to best present each individual file. We have been working through multiple channels across the Globe – from the Middle East, Asia Pacific, Latin America, India, Western Europe and former Soviet Union countries – to source, pre-assess, select and process Startup Visa teams and bring them to Canada in the most effective way. Besides that, our clientele keeps growing with happy clients’ private “word of mouth” referrals, which speaks volumes about Anyvisa’s custom tailored approach.
Enjoy 100% guarantee of dedication to your success
We are proud to say that we have 100% guarantee terms carefully implemented in our agreements to reflect mutual respect and obligations of all parties involved in the process. Step by step we reassure our clients in our ability to deliver outstanding results in the most fair and open way – only after one stage is completed perfectly and paid for, we move to another stage. The result is self-evident – NO Startup Visa refusals to this day.
Anyvisa aims to keep up the good job and contribute our expertise and professionalism to make your Startup Visa project successful and bring you closer to your dream – Immigrate to Canada, invest in the local economy, and do good for a country that will really thank you for it.
Get piece of mind with an All-Inclusive service
Many immigration service providers focus only on processing visa applications, essentially just handling the formal paperwork. Anyvisa, on the other hand, provides all-inclusive services. Whether our Startup client needs an immigration-only assistance or a combination of business and immigration services, they can rest assured that all their needs will be covered. What makes this approach possible is our understanding of business rules in Canada and beyond borders – we are happy to share our connections, expertise and practical knowledge, and provide any guidance needed.
Don’t underestimate the PR processing time factor
Anyvisa processes the most amount of Startup Visa applications across Canada by far, all while representing clients from all five continents. We are beating the record of success year after year, and hold a record for the fastest PR file in the Startup Visa category – 55 days. Even despite COVID-related delays, nowadays, we are landing teams in Canada for PR on a regular basis.
