Generally speaking, you can fill out and file the application forms yourself without a lawyer. The website and instructions are quite clear and easy to follow. If you do this yourself, then you are looking at around $1,200 per person in application fees and associated costs. Should you decide to hire a lawyer or consultant, the costs would of course go up.

You can also expect the process to take anywhere from 1-5+ years depending on immigration class, country you are from and other factors.

check out www.cic.gc.ca

Your fees for application will depend on the class of immigrant you intend to file as and the number of persons for whom you are filing.

Regarding the use of "immigration consultants". I personaly think they are a waste of time unless you are in a big rush to get there or you do not pass the minimum pass make to qualify. You can determine you pass make using the website www.cic.gc.ca

I filled out our forms, available online (same site)with guidance instructions.... and all it cost me was a few hours, paper ink and some phone calls to previous employers and educational institutions to have letters prepared and forwarded for inclusion in the application package.

For country specfic visa processing times go to www.cic.gc.ca and click on the tab titled "visa offices" select your nearest visa office to get to their site, click on the visa and immigration tab on site and it should direct you to table of estimated processing times for different classes of visas.

The new filing requirements only require a single page document to be filed and you provide rest of information when required to do so.

Follow up on your application can be done online once you have been issued a file number.

Good luck.

Depends upon your nationality...but it works out to almost US$5000 per applicant (including family) including lawyer fees and government charges. Other incidental expenses for procuring/ authenticating documents can reach up to $2000.

You can find several agencies on the web but first visit:

They only see what Canada shares with them, and that would *NOT* include bad credit. Even if it did, bad credit, even a recent bankruptcy, wouldn't cause you trouble at the border crossing, especially if that's the only problem. You might want to elaborate on "some problems" to get the exact answer you need though. A problem like DUI/DWI, for example, will come up on their system, and will likely result in being denied entry.
