Status Extension Consultation

Service Description

This 60-minute consultation is designed for individuals in Canada whose temporary resident status is nearing expiry, has already expired, or needs to be carefully reviewed in order to identify the most suitable temporary solutions available. During this session, we will assess your current immigration status, past status history, work and study background, family situation, and any other factors that may affect your legal options in Canada. Based on your profile, we will review possible temporary pathways that may help you remain in status or regain legal status where applicable, including work permit possibilities, study permit options, visitor status, and other relevant short-term strategies. This consultation is ideal for individuals who are not currently in a position to pursue permanent residence and need a clear understanding of what temporary solutions may still be available to them. It is also particularly useful for those who want to avoid falling out of status, need to make a time-sensitive decision before their status expires, or are already out of status and wish to understand whether restoration may still be possible. In addition to identifying possible pathways, we will discuss key eligibility criteria, practical risks, timing considerations, and the documents or supporting factors that may be important before moving forward. Where restoration is a possibility, we will also review the urgency of the situation and the factors that may affect the strength of the case. Please note that this consultation does not include application preparation, document drafting, or government fees. If you decide to proceed with further services afterward, you will receive a clear outline of the next steps, required documentation, and applicable professional fees. The goal of this consultation is to provide a careful and strategic review of all realistic temporary options available to you, so that you can make informed decisions about extending, protecting, or restoring your legal status in Canada.
