Just some general info

newmercman:
I think big-al is referring to the immigration “specialists” that are nothing more than parasites who fill out a form on your behalf and charge the earth for it, they have a ton of clauses in the contracts you sign so you have no comeback if your application is refused.

Some companies do use an immigration service, Bison being a good example, but they only do what somebody at Bison would be doing if it was done in house. When I came here with Big Fright, they had a department that did all that stuff in house, it’s the same thing, just subbed out.

Yep, most of them are parasites, unless someone has a difficult case, like health problems or criminal convictions, there is no need to use them.
I met a driver in Calgary YYC a few years ago that had paid $12,000 to one of the most well known Imm companies and he had been left stranded there, never did know what happened to him.
And another one from Edmonton on a FB page I am on had paid an Imm agent an unbelievable $45,000 to keep him here after his LMIA ran out and in the end he still had to go back to the UK.
Up until a few years ago, Bison were charging the Imm fees back to the driver.
