Immigration applications are unforgiving. A missing document, a missed deadline, or a misunderstood eligibility rule can cost months and sometimes years. AJD Law Corporation helps individuals, families, and employers in Surrey and across British Columbia prepare complete, well-documented applications to Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada (IRCC).
We assist with Express Entry and the BC Provincial Nominee Program, spousal and parent sponsorship, work permits and LMIA-based applications, study permits, refugee protection claims, and citizenship. If your application has been refused, we review the decision and advise on reconsideration, appeals, or reapplying with a stronger file.

Common Questions
ImmigrationLawFAQs
General information only. Every situation is different, so speak with a lawyer about your specific circumstances.
What is the difference between an immigration lawyer and a consultant?
Lawyers are licensed by the Law Society of British Columbia and can represent you before the Federal Court and the Immigration and Refugee Board. Consultants are regulated separately and cannot appear in court. For complex or refused files, a lawyer offers broader protection.
How long does permanent residency take through Express Entry?
IRCC's published service standard for Express Entry applications is about six months after an Invitation to Apply, but timelines vary with your profile, program, and application completeness. We help you maximize your CRS score and submit a complete file to avoid delays.
Can I sponsor my spouse or parents to come to Canada?
Canadian citizens and permanent residents can sponsor a spouse, common-law partner, dependent children, and in some years, parents and grandparents. Each stream has its own eligibility and financial requirements that we assess with you.
My application was refused. What are my options?
Depending on the type of application, you may be able to request reconsideration, appeal to the Immigration Appeal Division, seek judicial review at the Federal Court, or reapply with a stronger file. Deadlines are short, so contact us as soon as you receive the refusal.
