The Canadian Society of Immigration Consultants' (CSIC) mandate is to protect the consumers of immigration consulting services and ensure the competent and professional conduct of its members. The Society is responsible for regulating the activities of immigration consultants who are members and who provide immigration advice for a fee. CSIC is an independent, federally incorporated not-for-profit body operating at arms length from the federal government.

Why use a Certified Consultant?

A certified consultant is your assurance of quality. Certified consultants are equipped with the latest information on immigration law, procedures and practices and go about their business according to a strict, enforceable Code of Conduct.

To become certified, consultants must pass a rigorous application process, which requires evidence of good character, and tests knowledge and language skills.

For added security and client protection, certified consultants are fully insured for errors and omissions and can be subject to complaints that are all duly investigated by CSIC. Only consultants who are members of CSIC are allowed to represent an applicant for Citizenship and Immigration Canada, either in Canada or at any international Canada Immigration office. Success Immigration president and founder David Coombes is a member of CSIC, and the Canadian Association of Professional Immigration Consultants.
