SAAB Immigration Services Inc. is a licensed Canadian immigration consultancy led by Dikshit Soni, RCIC R536007, with offices in Mississauga and Kitchener and clients across Canada and abroad. The pages below cover every service we take on, from a first visitor visa through to answering a refusal at the Federal Court.
Most people arrive here in one of three situations. Some are planning a move and want to know which program they actually qualify for, which is where Express Entry, the Provincial Nominee Program and family sponsorship begin. Some are already in Canada and need to keep or extend their status, which is what the work permit, restoration of status and bridging open work permit pages deal with. And some have had something go wrong: a refusal, a procedural fairness letter, a finding of inadmissibility, or a removal order. That last group is the work we are best known for.
If you are not certain which of these describes you, that is normal. The free assessment below exists for exactly that, and there is no charge and no obligation for it.
