Planning from Jalandhar
Jalandhar is our heaviest Canada desk. The whole Doaba region — Jalandhar, Hoshiarpur, Kapurthala, Phagwara, Nawanshahr — sends more parents and grandparents to Brampton, Surrey, Calgary, and Edmonton than any other part of Punjab. A large share of our Jalandhar files are parent or grandparent Super Visas, not study or visit visas. The rest are study permits, spouse sponsorships, and visit visas.
We schedule sponsor calls in Canadian evening hours — usually 8 to 10 pm India time — so working children abroad don't have to take leave from office.
We handle preparation remotely. Any official attendance requirement follows the issuing authority’s instructions for your application.
