Our journey with Northia Immigration began when we decided to apply for my partner’s PGWP. I reached out to several immigration lawyers, hoping to find the right support for our application. Eliana was the first to respond, and she kindly offered to meet with me at no cost. From that very first conversation, I felt confident in her expertise and approach—especially because I have worked with immigration lawyers in the past and knew what to look out for. Throughout the process, the Northia Immigration team proved that my trust was well placed. They handled everything with care, professionalism, and attention to detail, making what could have been a stressful experience feel smooth and manageable. We are truly grateful for the work they do and the dedication they show to their clients. I wholeheartedly recommend Northia Immigration to anyone seeking reliable and supportive immigration services. More...

I had the privilege of working with Elaine in 2023 and again in 2025, and she consistently demonstrated a high level of professionalism and deep immigration expertise. She is highly analytical and exercises excellent judgment, always selecting immigration strategies that best fit each client’s circumstances. Elaine is meticulous, thorough, and communicates clearly with both colleagues and clients. She is receptive to feedback and uses it constructively to improve her work.

Northia Immigration has been an incredible support throughout my immigration process. Their team is fast to respond, extremely knowledgeable, and always organized in how they handle meetings and documents. Every follow-up has been quick, and their explanations are detailed and easy to understand — especially when timing and accuracy really matter. On a personal note, the service is absolutely worth the investment. I never felt lost or “on my own” at any point in the process. Even while my application was in progress, they encouraged me to reach out anytime with questions and always took the time to guide me through each step. Highly recommended to anyone who wants peace of mind and genuine professionalism when navigating Canadian immigration. More...

It is with great pleasure that we have the opportunity to write a review of our experience with Northia Immigration. Understanding that the application for immigration to Quebec did not necessarily require the services of a lawyer we felt that it would be invaluable to us to benefit from the assistance of a firm experienced in this process. We have not been disappointed. Both the two people of the Northia team in Montreal, Phillip Webber and Elaine Chow, took time to sit down with us and communicate with us by e-mail at all points in the process. Their responses to our questions were immediate and clear. They also communicated their replies in both French and English which was incredibly helpful to myself and my husband. To sum up our experience with Northia. Our application has been forwarded and we have received confirmation that we are now in line. Northia took away the stress we were feeling, especially as we, neither of us, are computer competent. We would have no hesitation in recommending their services for any future clients.
