The Immigration Consultants of Canada Regulatory Council (ICCRC) was designated by the government of Canada to regulate the Canadian immigration consulting, the Canadian citizenship consulting, and international student advising professions.

Section 91(2) of the Immigration & Refugee Protection Act (IRPA) and Section 21.1 of the Citizenship Act requires that anyone who provides Canadian immigration or citizenship advice for a fee or other consideration, must be a member in good standing of a law society in Canada, the Chambre des notaires du Qu?bec, or ICCRC.

BECOME A REGULATED CANADIAN IMMIGRATION CONSULTANT

A Canadian immigration consultant must be licensed and regulated by ICCRC. Known as a Regulated Canadian Immigration Consultant (RCIC), an immigration consultant provides assistance to people who seek to immigrate to Canada for the purposes of study, work, travel or permanent relocation.

Most RCICs reside in Canada and are permitted to practise abroad. They provide various professional services including preparing the necessary documentation for immigration applications such as visas and study permits. Once in Canada, immigration consultants can provide additional services including assistance with citizenship applications.

CAREERS

There are almost 4,000 Canadian immigration consultants. Many are entrepreneurs who run their own consulting firms providing immigration and citizenship services.

Some RCICs work:

? For other RCICs ? In law firms that provide immigration services ? For major consulting firms that provide immigration services ? In settlement organizations

Graduation from the Immigration Practitioner program can also provide a strong foundation for further education and training, and can be a useful addition to some professionals.

Some immigrations consultants are:

? Lawyers who were trained and accredited abroad ? Paralegals ? Investment consultants ? Leaders in not-for-profit organizations
