Hi friends,I just got the confirmation of my permanent residency visa for Canada and it feels great.All the credit for this happy occasion in my life belongs to the wonderful people in Visas Avenue,New Delhi,they have been really great in processing my papers and handling my unending queries towards my process and I must confess that some of my queries were repetitive and some were plain dumb to be frank,but the Visas Avenues consultants had the patience to graciously give a ear to all my concerns.I must say that the agency beautifully mixes professionalism with a personal touch as they always supported me whenever I felt that the process hit a roadblock and was kind enough to rationally explain the reasons for delay and kept me motivated throughout the process.I must reserve special thanks and gratitude to Ms. Ruchika Sharma who helped me throughout and was my "go to" person for all my doubts. She was religiously committed to my PR process and she was the one who kept on giving me hope when i was in doubt and for this i will be indebted to Ms. Ruchika Sharma &co throughout my life.

I am really content and happy with the services of Visas Avenue. All the team members specially my Case Manager Ruchika Sharma has been of great support throughout the entire process, she is very knowledgeable and competent and knows her work well. I got my Canada PR visa well in time because of the constant support and guidance of Visas Avenue team. Thanks for your assistance and admirable client servicing skills.I will certainly recommend your services to whoever is willing to immigrate in my known ones.

My process was handled by Shivangi and I have been very satisfied with the service. They are professional in their communication, measured in their assurances and do not over-commit. I would recommend Visa Avenues to anyone looking for PR for Australia.

Visas Avenue is a highly professional immigration agency providing top-notch value-for-money services. Me and my wife successfully applied for and received Canada PR about two weeks ago and this wouldn't have been possible without the support and guidance from my Visa Avenue agent - Ms. Ruchika Sharma. They reviewed our entire application, provided suggestions and recommendations and did thorough follow-up. I know friends who have been trying for Canada PR for more than 3 years - but our application got accepted within a year! Thanks to the suggestions by Visas Avenue, our documents got processed very quickly and there was no request for additional documents or information from Canadian immigration (which usually causes delay or rejection). A big thanks to Ruchika Sharma and her team!

Let me start by saying that working with Visas Avenue has been a good experience. I recently received my Visa for Canada and I appreciate all the support that the staff of Visas Avenue extended to me. Their protocols for handling applications are very thorough and efficient. They have working alternatives for different issues that might arise during the Visa processing. I worked with 2 case managers and one of them was Shivangi Arora. I must say that both of them have been excellent and empathetic. They are professional, helpful and dedicated. Special thanks to Shivangi who has been exceptional at her work.The overall experience has been very good. I would recommend Visas Avenue to people who want to immigrate to the destination of their choice. Working with Visas Avenue has been a delight. I wish them and the people who use their services all the best.

We have been recently granted our 189 Skilled Visa. Thank you so much Visa Avenues for getting our Golden Email. I decided to go via Visa Avenue for the migration process for Australia based on all the wonderful review from one of my friend who is already well settled in Sydney, Australia - having now received my Visa 7 months later I can happily say they are all accurate.I greatly admire the professionalism, honesty and genuine friendly manner. Their help throughout gave me a great deal of peace of mind and allowed me to get on with other things in my life, whilst knowing the whole Visa Process was ticking along nicely. Excellent service, always available to discuss visa application via phone or email.We just wanted to say a BIG THANK YOU to Shivangi Arora my case agent for all her help. She was always available, helpful, quick to respond to emails (often within an hour or so), thoroughly good at her job and an altogether nice person.I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Visa Avenue to anyone considering going through this process. It's worth every penny of the fee!!Many thanks for all that you have done

Ashish Johar

I would like to thank Visas Avenue for their outstanding service in getting my Australian PR. They are extremely professional and have strong business ethics. Both Ashwani and Shivangi were very helpful from the time I first contacted them to inquire until the time that I received my PR, although I never met them in person. They made me feel so confident and reassured about everything, and they kept me posted with any updates coming from DIBP. Shivangi was exceptionally supportive and patient with my queries even at the odd hours sometimes. She explained all the process thoroughly and guided me at each step. I believe I got the PR so quickly because of her hard work and efforts. I will for sure recommend people to go to Visas Avenue and will continue to do so in the future as well. Thank you once again !
