You might wish to visit Canada for a vacation, business trip, or to study. In order to do this, you may have to fill out applications and wait for an approval before being permitted to enter. For example, the processing time to apply for a study permit, if you are a citizen of United States, can be ten to nineteen weeks, depending on the office you apply to.
Similar to everyone with a desire to come to Canada, you want the process to be as fast as possible. This may lead you to question whether or not an immigration lawyer can speed up this process. The answer to this question is no, and probably yes.

The importance of understanding the law is obvious. You may find yourself in a situation where you are gathering your documents and getting your application completed. You might not know how to fill out the application, which documents to gather; basically, what needs to be submitted.
An immigration lawyer can assist you by making a complete application package, accurately and in a timely manner. A complete application package is defined, on Citizenship and Immigration Canada, as having all questions answered on your forms and providing all the essential documents.
Filling out forms and gathering your documents is a time consuming process in itself. You will have to,
o Which forms do you have to fill out?
o Do you need a medical examination, where can you get this done?
o What materials should I submit to prove ties to my home country?
Although an immigration lawyer cannot demand a visa officer to speed up your application, they can help you submit a complete application package in a shorter time than if you had to complete it on your own. Mistakes on your application could lead to delays or even being denied.
