Johns communication was great which was the reason that I wanted to work with him to get my Canadian Permanent Residency.

He gave clear instructions and was very responsive to any questions that I had during the process. He supported us with completing the documents and reassuring us when the Canadian immigration process was very slow.

I would definitely recommend working with John for any immigration

Thank you Gateway Pacific!

We couldn’t have been in better hands with our PR case! John is unparalleled immigration professional who is well-versed in the Canadian immigration policy and is on top of every change and caveat in the immigration process. He has demonstrated highest integrity and commitment, relentlessly pursuing the successful outcome of our filing. Our case was not easy, and yet we always knew John had our backs.

Every step of the way I felt like our case was the top priority for his firm when in reality John was handling hundreds of filings. He went above and beyond the contract to ensure our questions are answered and we achieve our utmost goal. Working with John has been our first experience of how welcoming, efficient and human Canada is! My highest commendation to John and Gateway Pacific.

Choosing John Lironi as our immigration consultant was our best decision. He provided an excellent service in getting the Permanent Resident Visa. He guided us through the whole process with patience and kindness, answered all our questions in a short period of time.

He is very knowledgeable and well-informed and has keen eyes on details. When you meet somebody, who stays up at night to complete your documents in time, you know that you have the right person. I highly recommend John Lironi to anyone who would like to work with a reliable, qualified, and caring immigration consultant.
