Our services

Navigating the Canadian immigration system is complex — and the cost of mistakes is high. At Magellan Immigration Consulting, our Regulated Canadian Immigration Consultant (RCIC) Sao Khadjieva (R515185) provides expert, licensed guidance to individuals and families pursuing a new life in Canada.

Whether you're applying for Canadian Permanent Residence through Express Entry — including the Federal Skilled Worker Program, Canadian Experience Class, or Federal Skilled Trades Program — or exploring a Provincial Nominee Program (PNP) pathway, our Canada Immigration Services build your strongest possible application from the ground up. That means profile creation, CRS score optimization, document preparation, and submission — handled with precision.

Beyond skilled worker pathways, we support clients across the full spectrum of Canadian immigration, including spousal and family sponsorship, study permits, work permits and LMIAs, visitor visas, and business immigration through the Start-Up Visa and PNP entrepreneur streams.

Based in Vancouver, BC, we serve clients across Canada and internationally. Every case is handled personally by a licensed RCIC — not delegated to unlicensed staff.

Our Services

  • Express Entry

    Express Entry is Canada's fastest pathway to Permanent Residence for skilled workers — but a strong profile isn't enough. With draw cutoffs fluctuating and category-based selection rounds increasingly targeting specific occupations, maximizing your Comprehensive Ranking System (CRS) score and knowing when to submit your application makes all the difference.

    At Magellan Immigration, our Canada Immigration Services assess your full profile — education, work experience, language scores, and provincial nomination options — to build the most competitive Express Entry application possible. Whether you're just creating your profile or you've already received an Invitation to Apply (ITA), we're here to make sure nothing is missed.

  • Provincial Nominee Programs (PNP)

    The Provincial Nominee Program offers one of the most flexible pathways to Canadian Permanent Residence — but with over 80 streams across provinces and territories, knowing which one fits your profile is half the battle. The wrong stream means wasted time, wasted fees, and in some cases, a refusal that follows your file.

    At Magellan Immigration, we assess your work experience, education, job offer status, and target province to identify the streams you're actually eligible for — not just the ones that sound right on paper. From BC PNP and Ontario's OINP to Alberta's AAIP and beyond, we prepare and submit your nomination application with the thoroughness it requires.

  • Admissions and Study Permits

    Canada's study permit process has become significantly more competitive — with new application caps, stricter financial requirements, and tightened Post-Graduation Work Permit (PGWP) eligibility rules creating more refusals than ever. A poorly prepared application isn't just unsuccessful — it can create a refusal history that complicates every future application you make.

    At Magellan Immigration, we've successfully obtained study permits for clients with two and three prior refusals. We help you choose the right program, build a compelling Statement of Purpose, and structure your documents to address the officer's concerns before they become a reason for refusal.

  • Visitor visas

    A visitor visa refusal is more common than most people expect — and more damaging than they realize. Every refusal is recorded on your immigration history and can affect future applications for work permits, study permits, and even Permanent Residence. Getting it right the first time matters, and knowing why officers refuse is half the battle.

    At Magellan Immigration, we assess your specific circumstances — ties to your home country, proof of funds, travel history, and purpose of visit — to build the strongest possible application. Whether you're visiting family, exploring Canada ahead of a future immigration plan, or applying for a Super Visa to stay longer, we make sure your application tells the right story.

  • LMIAs and Work Permits

    For foreign nationals, a Canadian work permit is often the critical bridge between temporary status and Permanent Residence — and for employers, a Labour Market Impact Assessment (LMIA) is frequently the first step to hiring the international talent they need. Both processes are document-heavy, timeline-sensitive, and unforgiving of errors.

    At Magellan Immigration, we assist both employers navigating the LMIA application process and foreign workers securing their work permits. Beyond the immediate goal, we also identify opportunities to use your Canadian work experience and LMIA-supported job offer to strengthen your Express Entry profile and accelerate your path to Permanent Residence.

  • Family Sponsorships

    Family reunification sits at the heart of Canada's immigration system — but the sponsorship process is more nuanced than most people expect. Eligibility requirements, financial thresholds, processing times, and potential inadmissibility issues on either side of the application can all derail a case that appears straightforward on the surface.

    At Magellan Immigration, we guide Canadian citizens and permanent residents through spousal and common-law sponsorship, child sponsorship, and the Parent and Grandparent Program (PGP) — ensuring your application is complete, accurate, and positioned to avoid the delays that come from incomplete documentation, misrepresented information, or overlooked eligibility conditions.

  • Business Immigration

    Canada actively welcomes entrepreneurs and investors — but business immigration programs are among the most scrutinized pathways in the entire immigration system. A weak business plan, an unclear source of funds, or a misaligned stream selection can result in a refusal that is extremely difficult to recover from.

    At Magellan Immigration, our Canada Immigration Services advise entrepreneurs pursuing the Start-Up Visa, C11 self-employed worker permit, and PNP entrepreneur streams across multiple provinces. From building a compliant business plan to preparing you for government interviews and responding to document requests, we make sure your application reflects the strength of your vision.

  • Refugee Applications

    Fleeing persecution, violence, or serious harm is already overwhelming — navigating Canada's refugee protection system on top of that should not be something you face alone. The process involves strict deadlines, complex legal thresholds, and hearings before the Immigration and Refugee Board (IRB) where preparation directly affects the outcome.

    At Magellan Immigration, we provide compassionate, thorough support throughout the refugee claim process — from your initial basis of claim documentation to IRB hearing preparation. We also assist with Humanitarian and Compassionate (H&C) applications for those with compelling grounds to remain in Canada.
