Complaint against Immigration Consultant

Hello,

My consultant applied for the express entry after WES did not recognize my college. She did not make me aware of this until I requested to see my WES report after being denied. During the application process she led me to believe it was recognized and I trusted her.

I have tried to file a complaint with ICCRC and have been waiting for a reply now for over 5 months.

I’ve contacted several attorneys and haven’t found any that would take my case. Can anyone recommend an attorney that will?

Thanks in advance for any assistance.

I would recommend that you apply on your own. There is no need to use a consultant or lawyer.

If WES didn't recognize your college - no lawyer or consultant can fix that.

My since advice would be to not waste any time and file the PR application on your own instead of wasting time on filing a complaint on your consultant. Nothing worthwhile is expected once the complaint is filed, he/she will still be on the Immigration Consultancy scene. Good luck.

Thank you both, your responses are appreciated and noted. I’m not trying to continue with my application or ask a consultant/attorney to “fix” anything. I’m asking for recommendations of attorneys that do this type of work.

If WES doesn’t ; try other options! It’s Worth! Also, do your own research as well! Don’t waste your hard earned money behind these so-called consultants.

"You're asking for recommendations on attorneys that do this type of work".
Since you don't intend to continue with your application what's the point of asking??
Anyways you're on one of such attorneys forum. David Cohen

Always best to report bad consultants.

Maybe I am not clear on what I need. I’m asking for recommendations on attorneys that would represent me in court to sue the consultant. Not an immigration attorney to help with my process.

Thank you but for now I’m done. I would have preferred trying for different ECA’s prior to applying for Express Entry however she never told me the results and unfortunately I never asked because I trusted her. She simply said I received your WES and we are all set to apply. I assumed all was good...

I wouldn’t recommend that option as hiring attorneys in Canada is going to cost you a lot. Did you report a complaint to ICCRC?

Do not give up because of that. There are other ECA assesment bodies that may recognise your certificate. Research ICES, IQAS and a couple others and cgoose the one that's best for you. You can do this whole process yourself.

Yes I know there are more but I am no longer interested. It is no longer worth it for me. As I mentioned, had she made me aware once WES didn’t recognize I would have paid for other ECA’s.

I just want attorney recommendations at this point. I live in the UAE and it’s been challenging finding one.
