She goes an extra mile to truly get to know you as a person & offers enough background information while giving advice.

Her approach where she truly cares about her clients is what stood out to me. They are available whenever you’re in need. I don’t think I would have found a better immigration consultancy than this! Truly reliable, expert in the immigration field & exceptional customer service. 10/10!'

Rishabh Sharma Study Permit, Open Work Permit for Spouse, Study permit for children

Working with Chitra was a very special experience for me and my family. Chitra is professional and transparent in her assessment and communication and this is what separates her from the rest. She says it as it is and is highly ethical in her approach. For those that are conscientious in nature and want to be thorough in their paperwork, there is no one better than Chitra. The biggest benefit of dealing with a boutique firm is a highly personalized and timely service. I would highly recommend Chitra and her team to help you with all matters related to immigration

Nicholas Mariani Spousal Sponsorship, Study permit, Work permit

Chitra and Associates were very pleasant, knowledgeable, and experienced. She helped me first by getting a student Visa and then helped me get my permanent residence with my spouse. She was extremely thorough and helped answer any questions. I cannot express how grateful I am for her help in starting a new chapter in my life. I highly recommend her for all your immigration needs!

Chitra and her team made my husbands dream a reality. After attempting and failing to complete the process ourselves, recognizing that we needed assistance and then locating her it seemed almost magic. We thank God for Chitra she is definitely heaven sent. Mere words cant seem to express our gratitude but if it helps someone else in the process we hope you choose Chitra and Associates to assist you in your immigration journey. She’s the best!

Kanika Permanent Residency

Chitra & Associates Immigration Consultants made our dream come true! My husband and I only just had a passing thought about moving to Canada to lead a better quality life, that was back in Feb 2016, we had no clue on how to move forward on this thought though. That is where Chitra Bhatia came to our rescue. Once we got in touch with her, she not only made us understand the entire process of applying for PR for Canada but also gave us her suggestions and tips at every step to make it easier for us, like her tips for practicing for our IELTS exam were super helpful. She kept transparency with us throughout, which gave us a lot of comfort. We knew right from the beginning that we are in the right direction, because of her. Small things like time difference did not break our communication with her, she kept in touch with us on regular basis. Even after we received our PR and landed in Canada, she and guided and helped us on our post settlement issues (which she had no liability of). Today we both are permanent residents and are living in BC, Canada, on the path of settling well here, all thanks to Chitra Bhatia. Thank you, our first friends in Canada.,

Dhriti Permanent Residency
