Firstly I want to state that no amount of words will be enough to portray my gratitude towards SIO and its members – Richard Sir, Sonali Ma’am and Aarti Ma’am, for the incredible assistance and support that they have provided throughout my journey.

I felt reassured knowing that she was just a phone call away, always ready to assist me in any situation. Richard Sir’s understanding of the intricacies involved in preparing the necessary documents made the entire process of university application and visa application seamless and stress-free for me.

I still remember the day on which I met Sonali outside of my IELTS exam center. When we first interacted, I immediately felt how simple and humble she was. Few days later, we connected over a phone call and she explained beautifully all the nitty-gritty details related to study visa process and also answered to my each queries patiently. I was convinced by her genuine and simple approach and decided to file my student visa with SIO. When I started thinking about building my Canada student visa profile, I knew I had to take external assistance who would understand my perspective very well as my profile was a bit complicated (because I was about to start my student life once more after 10 years!). When I discussed my profile with Sonali, she immediately suggested me to get in touch with her supervisor Richard Sir who was one of the generous human beings I have ever interacted. Richard Sir was very cooperative and friendly. He had tremendous amount of knowledge about visa/immigration process and was very kind enough to assess my profile diligently. He guided me through my entire visa journey from start to finish (from selecting colleges, courses to visa filing in embassy). Wherever I had any questions, Richard Sir always hand-held me and gave me some indispensable tips which were worth a million. I felt very relaxed and calmed while going through my visa process as I was confident that my file would surely go through. I actively listened to all of the suggestions provided by SIO and made changes to my profile accordingly (CA valuation, strong home ties, massive SOP overhaul, strong financial proofs). On 24-Oct, I ultimately received my Canada student visa and I couldn’t believe when I saw the status of ‘your application is approved’ in GC Key. I am very much thankful to god for directing me to Sonali on that day otherwise this reality of studying overseas would have remained a distant dream for me. So any future prospective students, who are thinking or deciding to go abroad for studies, take SIO as your trusted companion without giving a second thought. These guys will definitely help you out in the best way possible and trust me you will be in for a treat once you will get your dream student visa at the palm of your hand.

I’m extremely grateful for Aarti Ma’am and Richard Sir for their help. My visa for Canada got through yesterday and now I’m closer to achieving my dream. This would not have been possible without their support. They’re always available to help and make things so much easier. Let it be anything, they have contacts for everything and I would definitely recommend SIO if you want to pursue your dream of going abroad. Thank you so much!

‘Studies In overseas’ (SIO) can save you a lot of time and effort. I can’t thank them enough for the amount of patience they had with this hesitant brain of mine in picking a college at first. They made it so simple and never ran out of patience with my never-ending questions and inquiries, which is again so important to ask in order to make better choices. They spent so much time working on my behalf, from college applications to student loans to visa submission, including my sop, which Richard wrote brilliantly. You really can’t compare any other agencies with ‘SIO’ cause the amount of patience with assistance and help that you would get from SIO is unmatched. I have visited several other counseling agencies including *** and *** but none were compared to SIO. I didn’t have to be stressed or worried the whole time, knowing that my application process is in good hands. The best part is that they don’t have any commercials involved, which comes as a surprise and a delight. Thank you so much Richard and Sonali for your assistance in the entire process. I will forever be grateful to the entire team!

I got excellent service from SIO. All team members were very supportive. They have guided me from the beginning to the very end of this long journey and I really appreciate the immense efforts taken by them in many stages. I can say that they are the best supportive team that anybody can find in this industry considering my own experiences in approaching other established consultants for my study visa. Also, nobody would take that much extra efforts and care in getting the study permit without leaving any chance to be rejected. I would wholeheartedly appreciate their efforts. Thank you SIO Team.

  2. Graduated from Eligible Institutions: The institution where you studied must be a DLI in Canada. Not all educational institutions in Canada are eligible, so it’s essential to confirm your institution’s designation.
  3. Application Timing: You have up to 180 days (approximately 6 months) after completing your program to apply for the PGWP. It’s crucial to apply within this timeframe, as applications submitted beyond this period may not be accepted. Note PGWP is typically issued once in a lifetime.
