F.A.Q.

Common questions about the assessment.

01
Is this legal advice?
No. This is an informational estimate only. Eligibility depends on full rules and your complete immigration history.
02
Why do you ask for contact details first?
We send the estimate by email (transactional). You only receive marketing emails if you explicitly opt in.
03
How long does it take?
Typically 2–5 minutes, depending on your route history and any absences.
04
What if I’m missing exact dates?
Give your best estimate. Where precision matters, the assistant will ask once for the exact date and note assumptions.
05
Do you store my chat?
Your lead details are stored in the firm’s database. The estimate JSON is generated server-side to produce your email.
