How We Process Your Application

From your first document to biometrics — we handle every step alongside you. Our consultancy charges are PKR 50,000 (PKR 100,000 for Canada). We do not handle any other payments on your behalf.

01

Eligibility & Initial Documents

You provide us your Passport, CNIC, Matriculation Certificate & Marks Sheet, Intermediate Certificate & Marks Sheet, and IELTS/UKVI IELTS Test Report Form along with your preferred course and university (photocopies or scanned copies).

02

Resume, SOP & University Application

We prepare your professional Resume, Recommendation Letters, and Statement of Purpose (SOP). We fill in your university admission application and submit it through our trusted business partners.

03

Credibility Interview Preparation

Once you receive an offer letter from the university, a credibility interview is required (typically conducted online). We prepare you thoroughly with mock interview sessions so you feel confident and ready.

04

Initial University Fee Payment

After passing (or before, in some cases) the credibility interview, you pay the initial fee directly to the university — typically 50–60% of the first year's tuition fee. This triggers your CAS/I-20/CoE issuance.

05

Bank Statement Preparation

We advise you on the exact maintenance funds required — which must be maintained in your or your parents' bank account for the required number of days before visa application. Requirements vary by country.

06

Visa Application (Online)

After receiving your final acceptance letter, CAS (UK), I-20 (USA), or CoE (Australia), we apply for your visa through the official online portal. Health insurance and visa fees are paid by credit card during this step.

07

Biometrics Appointment

After submitting the online visa application, we book your biometric appointment at the nearest Visa Application Centre. You attend in person for fingerprinting and photograph — usually 15–20 minutes.

Note: We do not handle any financial transactions on your behalf except our consultancy fee (PKR 50,000 / PKR 100,000 for Canada), payable in cash or by cheque.
