Should I choose a Consultant or a Lawyer?

It is very important to know the difference and the visa process so that Applicants can protect themselves from individuals representing themselves as immigration professionals when they are really not.

Consultants are non-lawyer immigration agents. Paralegals, law officers, and immigration specialists are all terms used to describe them. Former immigration officers who have left the government to work in the private sector make up some of the consultants. The Immigration Consultants of Canada Regulatory Counsel currently regulates immigration consultants (ICCRC) of which Expedia Consult is a member of.

Lawyers who practice immigration law primarily or exclusively are known as immigration lawyers. They usually have more experience in the subject than a general practitioner who may only dabble in it.

Expedia Consult works with certified immigration lawyers in the United States and Canada, as well as senior and extremely experienced immigration advisers in Canada.

If I hire a Expedia Consult Lawyer what is the next step?

After performing your immigration assessment and determining if you are eligible for a visa, your lawyer will ask you to sign a “Retainer Agreement” that describes the nature of the case, legal fees and other charges, the role of your attorneys, and what we expect from you as their client.

A lawyer will then give you a full list of material by email, taking you through what is required for your case, and will begin gathering the information needed to complete any application forms, legal submissions, or other paperwork that is required.

Your lawyer will email your file to you for review and signature once it is complete and ready. Then, on your behalf, your application will be sent to the immigration authorities, ensuring that your file reaches the right people and is processed quickly.

What if I don't quality for a Visa?

At Expedia Consult, we supply you with other alternatives to get a Canadian or US Study Visa even if you don’t qualify for one. We also encourage Visa applicants to start with a Visitor/Tourist Visa first in order to increase their eligibilty for a permanent visa.

Why choose an immigration lawyer when I can do it myself?

Immigration Laws are complicated and continually changing. You may have a rudimentary idea of what goes into applying for a visa, but unless you work in immigration full-time, you will be unaware of all the factors that might affect your application.

Does this imply that we believe you should leave everything to the professionals? No way.

Applicants are more knowledgeable about their personal situations than professionals, while professionals are more knowledgeable about immigration law. Bringing applicants and immigration experts together to work as a team results in successful immigration applications.

What documents do I need?

The answer depends on the type of application you’re submitting. Documents required in support of a Study Permit application, for example, differ significantly from those required in support of a Visitor/Tourist application. Most applications include instructions on which papers are necessary for a certain application.

In most cases, documentation verifying your identification, such as birth certificates or national identity cards, are required. You should also attach your marriage certificate if you are married.

Is it necessary to present original documents? Photocopies of documents are usually sufficient, but actual employment references and police clearance certificates are required in most situations.

Each application has its own set of document needs. It’s critical to double-check what’s necessary.

Your narrative is told through documents. Make sure to include any supporting papers for your immigration application.

What should I expect from my immigration lawyer?

Our lawyers are dedicated to resolving your legal issue as quickly and inexpensively as possible.

Our lawyers are qualified to analyze your unique legal difficulties, offer workable solutions, and take the procedures necessary to obtain you, your family, or wards the appropriate papers for Canadian or US legal status.

What are your consultation and legal fees?

Consultation and Legal fees are always quoted to you in advance. Immigration cases are charged on a flat-fee basis so that in this way you know exactly how much your case will cost with no surprises.

We will also outline any additional office disbursement charges as well as applicable government application fees. Expedia Consult Consultant and lawyer’s fees are very competitive. Since we restrict their practice only to immigration law and services, they handle a wide range of cases and applications which keep fees low and reasonable without sacrificing service.

Can you help people from anywhere in the world?

Unfortunately, we presently represent clients who live in West Africa and are also residents of a West African country, but our attorneys and advisers are licensed to practice immigration law in both the United States and Canada.

Expedia’s Consultants and Lawyers can also be reached by phone, email, fax, or video conferencing. Because of the nature of immigration law, we do not require your personal presence at our offices.

We are prepared to handle unique immigration and visa matters for you regardless of where you are in West Africa, thanks to the utilization of cutting-edge technology.
