Frequently Asked Questions
Do I need to create an account to apply?
No. You can start and complete your visa application without creating an account.
How long should my passport be valid?
Your passport should be valid for at least one year from your intended travel date. Bring all previous passports as well.
What if I am self-employed without a registered business?
We recommend getting your business registered. If not registered, open a business account. For Canadian visas you'll need a J.P. letter. We can help with business registration.
What if I have zero dollars in my bank account?
Customers have been approved with zero dollars in their account. What matters is whether money regularly passes through the account (transactional history).
Where do I send my documents?
Digital copies should be emailed to islcvisaservices@gmail.com. Our team will confirm receipt and guide you from there.
