How to Hire an Immigration Consultant for Student Visas

1.How many students have you placed on this country's student visa in the past year, and what was your approval rate at my target consulate?

Почему это важно: Recent success rate at your specific consulate is the most reliable signal. Consular approval rates and patterns vary by post, and an advisor with volume at your specific consulate knows current patterns.

2.How do you prepare students for consular interviews, and what are the most common reasons for refusal at this post?

Почему это важно: Interview preparation quality varies dramatically between consultants. Specific knowledge of current refusal patterns at your target consulate indicates genuine volume and engagement with outcomes, not just application submission.

3.What documentation do you need from me, and how far in advance should we start the process?

Почему это важно: Student visa timelines are tight relative to enrollment deadlines. Starting too late — common when students underestimate processing time — can delay enrollment by a full academic term.
