Pricing plays a crucial role in the value equation (Service + Quality + Access). Businesses develop products and services to create value. The price may increase, but the consumer will still be happy with the higher value if they believe there is a good ratio of quality, service, and accessibility. The perception of Pricing may decrease if the client feels the quality, service, or access ratio needs to be higher.
In theory, the definition of an investment or an expense is clear-cut. Investment is spending that creates an asset that will help generate profits over several years. A cost is an outflow of money or assets to another individual or company as payment for an item or service. The investment will start paying you back, and the expense will drain your resources. Viewing all spending as investments instead of expenses will help guide better immigration decisions.
So, spending off on your immigration pathway is a future investment for your family and you, not an expense.
It is a fair and straightforward question. The answer would be tricky enough because every individual situation is varied, and several factors are involved in your immigration inquiry. So, your immigration fees can be as high-priced as they are complex. The client often pays the price (Directly and indirectly!) for substandard legal work when they hire a generalist who requires an expert.
Your Immigration fees are the amount you will pay for legal services to a Regulated Canadian Immigration Consultant (RCIC) or a lawyer, in addition to third-party fees such as application fees charged by Immigration Authorities, document translation, photocopying, mailing, etc.
Legal fees can fluctuate greatly (the hourly rate starts from $150) because of the difficulty level of your case, the amount of work required, the time it will take (hours), how many forms/documents are needed, etc. So, your immigration fees will largely depend on your situation.
Unlike most lawyers, Arnika Visa administers a “flat-rate billing” policy by a predetermined date, which means the clients will know the cost to pay at the starting point, including third-party payments. We understand fees would be your concern while considering hiring an RCIC who fits your budget.

If a more in-depth review of your immigration history is required, the RCIC will need to conduct further research.

This session allows the RCIC to fully understand your unique situation, ensuring the advice you receive is thoughtful and tailored to your needs.
After the Consultation session, the RCIC may answer a maximum of two (2) follow-up questions from the client. These questions can be sent via email or at the RCIC’s choice.

The RCIC must receive the questions within two (2) calendar days after the consultation date and they cannot be technical or require in-depth research.
For some clients, the advice received during the Initial Consultation is all they need, and they will do it independently. For clients who want to engage the RCIC as their authorized representative to do more work, the RCIC-Client relationship should be established officially by signing the Retainer Agreement. The RCIC will draft a personalized retainer agreement describing the RCIC’s and the client’s responsibilities. The retainer agreement defines how much he charges and how clients pay him. The RCIC requires an initial deposit to start work on the client’s file. The client’s money is secured in RCIC’s client account (Trust Account) and is managed as per the CICC (Formerly ICCRC) regulation. It will be used for the work when it is done. So, the RCIC starts to work on the client immigration files, and he makes sure to give clients updates on their applications, ensuring your money is in safe hands.
