I want to thank you for the incredible support you have given , and incredible follow-up have been very comforting for me during this very stressful situation

I look forward to working with you on my US Waiver application.  Once again thank you very much Katherine, for all your help from me and my entire family.

I would like to thank Niren and Associates for your recent help in assisting me in obtaining a B1 business visitor’s visa for the US after being turned back at the US border in June.

Katherine Yang along with Fadi Minawi prepared a re-entrance package and I was able to obtain a 6 month B1 business visitor’s visa making it possible for me to return to the US to conduct business once again without this package that Katherine put together for me I do not believe that I would have been able to do this on my own and return to the US to conduct business.

Once again many thanks and I will be looking to Niren and Associates in the future for additional assistance with US visas.
 
Best regards,
 
Len M

Toronto sports doctor Dr. Anthony Galea is accused to giving his athlete patients human growth hormone (HGH), which is a substance that is banned in almost all sports. Galea is charged with defrauding the United States Government because he lied to border agents as well as a number of drug charges.football_5

According to the National Post, Galea is alleged to have made his assistant lie about the reasons for their trips to the United States while smuggling the supplies to administer the drug to their clients, many of which were high-profile celebrity athletes in the MLB, NFL along with PGA golfers such as Tiger Woods, who acknowledges being treated by Galea but denies receiving any illegal drugs.

Galea’s assistant waived her right to an attourney and is cooperating with investigators, and according to her the two have racked up hundreds of thousands of dollars administering the drugs across the border. $200,000 of which, came from three NFL athletes alone. The athletes also paid for the doctor to travel to see them.

No one is able to determine thus far if the drugs were for performance enhancement or to speed up healing of injuries, as both drugs have the potential to do either. Colleagues, however maintain that the doctor’s specialty is helping athletes with injuries heal faster, and previous Canadian patients of the doctor include Patrick Chan and Donvovan Bailey.

Whether his reasons for crossing the US border were for business, were honourable or were suspicious and illegal, lying to United States border officials is an extremely serious charge, and in this case is considered equal to defrauding the government.

Hi Michael, Mary and Fadi,

I would like to start off by wishing you all a very Happy New Year!  I hope that the next decade brings you all love, laughter and happiness. I want to thank you guys for helping me with my US Humanitarian Parole application and my trip to New Jersey was a success.  I did come back to Toronto on December 30th and surrendered the Parole sheet to Canadian Customs.  I have made a photocopy of this sheet for our records.

I look forward to working with you on my US Waiver application.  Please let me know what the next steps are and any other information you require from me.  Once again thanks for all your help and I will wholeheartedly provide you with a reference to anyone seeking legal US immigration advice.

Thanks,
Sheetal

Dear Mrs. Mary Zhang

I wanted to send you a quick note to thank you kindly for the excellent service, guide, support and understanding and patience that you have shown in helping me though out the US Waiver application to the United States.

I am impressed with the customer service, dedication and professionalism I have received since we started this application.

Thanks to your hard work and devotion to the application I was granted my US Waiver permit to the United States.  I will be sure to inform my family and friends of your immigration law firm without hesitation.

I can not thank you enough for all your help.

Yours truly,

CML

Hi Beth!

I finally made it across to the US. I was sent to secondary inspection at the Peace Bridge and was kept there for quite a while being asked a million and one questions over and over about my purpose in the states and my ties to Canada, but I think when they were going through my purse and pulled out pictures of my parents and I started crying it really made them realize that I was telling the truth.

I’ve been allowed to stay until January 7th, and if I overstay or break any rules I can be banned for up to 10 years from the US. January 4th is more than sufficient for me so that won’t be an issue.

I just wanted to thank you, Johanna and Michael at Niren and Associates for all of your help once again. You will most likely hear from me in the near future regarding my immigration to the US.

Have a wonderful day!
Mabel
