Thanks for joining me! Lets explore the unknown side of Canada Immigration

Beware of false knowledge; it is more dangerous than ignorance-

Why this blog ?

My primary goal is to help the Canadian Immigration aspirants to understand how the immigration system really works and to expose some of the fraudulent practices employed by these so-called immigration consultants.

“Not everyone who meets the eligibility gets the visa but the ones with strong profile gets it”. I need you to engrave this wordings in your mind while you consider immigration options to Canada. In simple terms, just because you meet the eligibility that does not mean that you will get the Visa because Canadian immigration has a merit-based system, which awards visas to applicants with higher merit/ strong profile.

This begs questions such as – how strong your profile is? Do I have a real chance of getting the Visa? Is it worth engaging an Immigration Consultant? Let me try to unravel this one by one in blog posts follows this– As a first thing let me stress the very important point mentioned above that- “Not everyone gets the visa”. In order to validate my point, if Canadian Immigration gives visa approval to everyone who meets the eligibility, of course by now Canada would have been the most populated country in the world, not China or India. Every year, tens of thousands of people are trying to apply for Canadian Immigration and after English Language Test some of them realizes that they cannot meet the eligibility. And among those meets the eligibility, a small percentage turns out to have a strong profile and again from them, a very tiny percentage of the gets the final approval.

So you must know, in this process will you be in that tiny/ small percentage?

I will, in my next blog posts, write about how you can calculate your profile’s strength using Comprehensive Ranking System and what does that score signify? Above all, I will write in detail, how these so-called Immigration Consultants operates and how well trained they are to manipulate people. You may well have already been manipulated and you will be in the future. So please guard yourself with knowledge out there. Let me conclude this with a quote from George Bernard Shaw – ‘BEWARE OF FALSE KNOWLEDGE; IT IS MORE DANGEROUS THAN IGNORANCE.’
