Use of the term “guarantee” when describing immigration consulting services or fees
Immigration Consultants who are authorized by the government of Canada are supposed to go about their business according to a strict, enforceable Code of Conduct.
According to the Professional Rules of Conduct that we as Authorized Consultants are bound to adhere to, use of the term “guarantee” when describing services or fees is inappropriate, and must be avoided. Consumer of Immigration Consulting Services should be cautious and understand that the word "guarantee" is used by unauthorized ghost agents posing themselves as licensed consultants. They do so in an attempt to instill confidence in clients they are trying to fool. As such, when you see the word "guarantee" on a web site or any marketing material of a so called immigration consultant, ask for their identity and check if their name appears on the list of Authorized Representatives available on the web site of the Canadian Society of Immigration Consultants - https://www.csic-scci.ca/find/all.html
An Immigration Consultant has a positive duty to promote the Society and Rules, and to prevent unregulated practice, and is encouraged where appropriate to educate the public at large regarding the Society and the regulatory system and safeguards with respect to Immigration Consultants. Amir Ismail & Associates (AIA) will continue to follow this rule and will continue its efforts to inform and educate public to distinguish between Authorized Representatives and impostors plaguing the immigration industry worldwide, particularly in Pakistan.

Authorized Consultant. But Authorized by who
They always have innovative ways to circumvent the law. They pose themselves as legitimate consultants. They deceive people by lying to them that they are "Authorized Representative". In doing so, they contravene the Canadian law. They are termed as "ghost agents" by those who are properly authorized and accredited by the government of Canada.
Beware and take extra caution when you deal with someone who uses the term "Authorized" to make you believe that they are "Authorized" by the government of Canada. Only and only those consultants who are Members in good standing with the Canadian Society of Immigration Consultants are "Authorized". There is a recent trend where unauthorized agents have secured authorization to promote Quebec's Investors program in Pakistan. They are merely promoters of Quebec's Investor Program for various financial institute while they pose themselves as if they are "authorized" by the government of Canada to represent clients in their immigration matters. This is certainly not the case.
In order to check the legitimacy of the claim of an individual being "authorized", one needs to check if the name of that individual is listed on the web site of the Canadian Society of Immigration Consultants available at http://www.csic-scci.ca/
I have noticed that some agents in Pakistan, specially those promoting investor program are conveniently advising clients that they are authorized to represent their immigration applications. Unlike Certified Canadian Immigration Consultants, these ghost agents have little or no training in Canadian immigration law, are not regulated and accountable and are not obliged to follow strict professional rules of conduct. With Bill C-35, the new Canadian proposed law to criminalize these ghost agents, on the verge of being implemented, soon these impostors and con artists will have no place to hide and play with the dreams of people.
If you have dealt with or have hired an individual or company claiming to be "authorized", you should check immediately with the CSIC to avoid any future disappointments. Check with the CSIC member directly if an individuals or company claims to be associated with a CSIC member in any way.
Amir Ismail & Associates has only one office in Karachi and in Toronto. The address of our offices can be checked on our web site www.amirismail.com We have not authorized any other office in Karachi or Pakistan to use our name or qoute any relationship with us without prior consent from us.
