Speak with Chris
Immigration expertise for your plans in Nanaimo.
For many people in Nanaimo, immigration planning starts with a study program, a new job or a partner already in Canada. It helps to look ahead before a permit expires or your circumstances change. We can discuss how your immediate status needs fit with a longer-term goal, while keeping the requirements for each application clear.
Studying or finishing a program at VIU
Bring the name of your program, your institution, completion dates and immigration documents. We can assess questions about study permits and post-graduation options. The school’s international office is also a useful source of student support.
Working in Nanaimo or central Vancouver Island
We look at the actual position, employer, work location and your work history when discussing potential immigration routes. Living on Vancouver Island alone does not confirm eligibility for a provincial nomination.
Keeping family plans on track
If your partner or children are part of your plans, identify their current status and deadlines alongside your own. We can discuss family sponsorship or the separate temporary-residence questions that may need attention.
Immigration services for Nanaimo clients
Start with your goal. We will explain which options need a closer assessment.
Permanent residence
Assess Express Entry, Canadian Experience Class and other potential routes in light of your work, education and language profile.
BC PNP & provincial nomination
Review whether British Columbia nomination is worth exploring, based on the relevant requirements and your plans to live in the province.
Spousal & family sponsorship
Understand the information and relationship evidence needed to assess a sponsorship application.
Work permits & employer support
Discuss work authorization, employer requirements and LMIAs where relevant to the proposed role.
Study & temporary status
Plan around your study, visitor or work-permit questions and the dates that matter for your current status.
Business & citizenship planning
Discuss business-related immigration questions or the next steps toward citizenship for an established permanent resident.

Questions from Nanaimo clients
Can I work with an immigration consultant serving Nanaimo online?
Yes. Meet face to face with Chris Brown through Google Meet or book a phone consultation. Chris provides Canadian immigration advice for clients in Nanaimo and central Vancouver Island, including people overseas planning a move here. Consultations, application preparation and ongoing support are handled remotely. Compare consultation options and learn how to prepare →
Can you advise a VIU student about life after graduation?
Yes. We can assess your questions using your program, study history and status documents. Post-graduation work options have eligibility requirements, so we review your specific situation before recommending a route.
Does living in Nanaimo guarantee a better BC PNP outcome?
No. Your location is only one part of a potential assessment. Program requirements, your job and employer, other registration factors and invitation criteria may all matter. A calculator estimate is not an eligibility or invitation decision.
Can you help if I am still overseas?
Yes. We can meet online to discuss your plans for Nanaimo before you move. Have your education, work history and family circumstances available, along with any Canadian job offer or school documents.
What if my permit is close to expiring?
Include the exact expiry date when you contact us. We need to assess your current conditions and available options. Booking a call does not extend your status or authorize work or study.
