How we advise

  • We advise independently: we compare programs candidly against your goals before recommending one.
  • Investment minimums are indicative (“from” or “typically”) and are confirmed by the program at consultation.
  • Government contributions and due-diligence fees are set by the program and shown to you separately.
  • Timelines are typically measured in months after due diligence; we give a realistic estimate up front.
  • No firm can guarantee approval — every applicant is subject to government due diligence.
In detail

What we will ask from you

  • Certified copies and, where needed, certified translations
FAQ

Frequently asked questions

Do I need to live there?

No — there is no residence requirement.

Can my family be included?

Yes — spouse and qualifying dependents are typically eligible.

How long does it take?

Typically several months after due diligence; we give a realistic timeline upfront.

Can you guarantee approval?

No. Applications are decided by the government after due diligence. We prepare a complete, accurate file and tell you candidly if a program is not a good fit.

Who decides the investment amount?

The program sets the minimums and fees. We explain the current requirements and confirm them with you before you commit.
