What factors can affect the turnaround time of a translation?
Deploy

Several factors can influence the turnaround time of a translation, including the length of the text, the complexity of the content, the availability of translators and the current workload. For a more accurate estimate, we recommend that you provide specific details about your translation needs when requesting a quote.

What is a joint stock company and how can I incorporate one in Canada?
Deploy

A joint stock company is a legal entity separate from its owners. To incorporate, you must register with the appropriate province, define the shareholders and file the incorporation documents.

I already have my letter of acceptance (LOA), I want to apply for my visa/study permit, how far in advance should I apply?
Deploy

We highly recommend applying for the visa 5 to 6 months before the start of your classes. This is to avoid that due to embassy delays, your application is not processed on time and you miss the start of your classes. Please be aware that each embassy is different and they are usually very volatile with their processing times, in addition to having delays in their processes. 

If, for example, your classes start in September, then you should ALREADY be applying for the visa in April or May. That is, by April or May you should already have the LOA, the money needed for tuition and living expenses, plus other supporting documents necessary for your application.

When I extend my work or study permit within Canada, will I automatically be issued a new visa in my passport for the date of the extension?
Deploy

No, a work permit or study permit is not a visa. You will not automatically be issued a visitor visa if you extend your work or study permit. If you need a new visitor visa, you will need to file a separate application. The visa is required if you want to travel and be able to return to Canada to continue your studies or work. Do not leave Canada with an expired visa (even if your study or work permit has already been extended), because you will not be able to return without a valid visa.

Can you help me process my enrollment at a college/university with which you do not have an agreement?
Deploy

No, because we are not legally authorized to do so and we do not know the internal process to process the enrollment. We will only be able to help you if you choose one of our programs because we can commit to handling your application (we have direct contact, access to applications and data management) and we are trained for them.

In case you want to apply to an institution with which we do not have an agreement, we recommend writing to them directly and once you have obtained the LOA, our visa team will be happy to help you with the visa process.
