The other name of professionalism and efficiency is Visas Avenue. It played a major role in turning my Canada PR dream into a reality. I would particularly like to mention Ankita and my case manager Shivangi for assisting me through the process and helping me keep my nerves in check. Despite never meeting them in person, as I am based in Kolkata, I never felt that distance matters. The entire process and consultations were done via email and phone and there was no scope of any complaint at all. A team of thorough professionals, it knows its job very well. I wish all the best to Visas Avenues and hope it would assist many other dreamers like me in achieving their goals.

It is my immense pleasure to write a review about Visas Avenue. After a lot of market survey, I signed up with Visas Avenue and found them very genuine. They have provided me the best services for Canada immigration. I found their team very knowledgeable and professional. I would like to thank my case manager Shivangi Arora for her great support during my visa journey. I would sum up her services in one word "Brilliant." She has an in depth knowledge of the entire process and answered my every single query patiently irrespective of how stupid it was. Even during the waiting period, she helped me to stay calm and optimistic. I used to get timely follow ups from her, and she made the complete process very smooth for me. From client signup to getting visa stamped, the services provided by Visas Avenue was incredible. I wish I could give them more than five stars. I would strongly recommend Visas Avenue without any reservations to anyone who is looking for immigration services.Kudos and a big thank you to Shivangi Arora and the entire team of Visas Avenue.

I would like to thank Visas Avenue for guiding me in successfully getting my Canadian PR !!!I initially approached Promita Deb from their Bangalore office. She checked my eligibility and gave me an idea about the entire Express Entry process, which actually helped me to make up my mind in applying for PR.My first case manager was Prateek Bhatnagar from their Delhi office. He was very helpful in assisting me to gather the documents in the initial phase.Later on I was assigned to another case manager Geetanjali Bharadwaj to whom I would like to express my sincere gratitude. She is such an expert in the field and resolved all my queries during the course of the ExpressEntry process. She gave regular reminders which actually helped me in submitting my application on time and eventually getting my PR much earlier than i expected. She was very professional and easy to liaise with, which made the entire process seamless. Great work team ! I would definitely recommend your services !!

The team here is value for all the trust and expectation you have from any consulting firm (offcourse value for money...they hit the nail). Members to whom so ever I have spoken to are absolute professionals, good with what they do and swift in terms of updates. Shivangi Arora who was assigned as my consultant manager was fantastic in her approach ,extremely knowledgeable and prompt in terms of reviewing documents, providing updates and answering lot of silly questions with patience and that makes a difference. Immigration department never came back asking to revisit any documents and that is what anybody expects after you opt for a consultancy to help you out.Everything was just perfect and on time ... thanks Shivangi and team :).I have already recommended Visas Avenue to one of my friends this morning and also asked them to check ...if Shivangi could be their case manager :)
