How long does the immigration process usually take?
The processing time for immigration applications can vary depending on the type of program, the completeness of the application, and the volume of applications being processed. It is advisable to consult with an immigration lawyer who can provide an estimate based on your specific circumstances.

What happens if my Canadian immigration application is denied?
If your application is denied, an immigration lawyer can assess the reasons for the denial and advise you on potential options. This may include appealing the decision, reapplying with additional documentation, or exploring alternative immigration pathways.
