While many general practice lawyers dabble in immigration, they may not be well versed or practiced in this area. From first-hand experience, I recommend the experience of a certified immigration consultant or a lawyer who specializes exclusively in immigration law.
The RomRealty Team has partnered with two immigration consultancy companies who have extensive knowledge and experience in dealing with the Canadian immigration process. These companies are Regulated Canadian Immigration Consultants registered with the Immigration Consultants of Canada Regulatory Council (ICCRC) and each offers advice and assistance for various immigration applications. Immigration Consultants are specialists in Canadian Immigration Law.

Pathway’s President, Shawna Hubscher, is a Regulated Canadian Immigration Consultant. A specialist with business immigration and skilled worker programs, Shawn can help you find the right investment opportunities in British Columbia and other provinces within Canada. Pathway’s specialty is working with the Provincial Nominee Programs (PNP), the fastest and most successful program for business immigration and skilled workers to gain status in Canada. The focus of the PNP is to attract business investors and skilled workers to British Columbia and Alberta. There are also other Federal Program options, but the processing times are considerably longer. Successful applicants through the PNP can come to Canada immediately with a work permit to start their business or employment endeavours.
