WHY THE RIGHT HELP MATTERS

US Immigration Is Harder Than It Used to Be

Hiring help isn't required. But today, getting it right the first time matters more than ever.

Stricter rules Applications get more scrutiny, and the rules change often.
Small mistakes, big delays The wrong visa or a missing document can lead to delays, or a refusal at the border.
New rules for Canadians Many Canadians staying 30 days or more must now register with the US government.

Questions About Working With Us

Do I need a lawyer to move to the US?

Not always. But US applications are strict, and mistakes can lead to delays or refusals. A licensed immigration lawyer helps you choose the right route and get it right the first time.

Who handles my case?

A licensed, experienced immigration lawyer. Any legal advice or representation comes directly from the lawyer you retain.

How much does it cost?

It depends on your route and your situation. Your free assessment comes first, so you know your options before you commit.

I was refused before. Can you still help?

Often, yes. A past refusal doesn't always end your chances. We look at what went wrong and find the right application or waiver.

Can you help my family too?

Yes. We plan status for your spouse and children as part of your move.

Do you help with Canadian immigration too?

Yes. VisaPlace Immigration also helps people move to Canada, including work permits, Express Entry and family sponsorship.
