Practical, licensed help for Richmond Hill residents at every stage of status, from temporary permits to permanent residence and citizenship, with representation before the Immigration and Refugee Board when it matters.
More than one in seven Richmond Hill residents was not yet a Canadian citizen at the 2021 Census, a higher share than York Region or Ontario as a whole. Many are somewhere in the middle of the process: on a work permit, waiting on permanent residence, renewing a PR card or counting days toward citizenship.
SEP Immigration is led by Sepehr Falahati, a Regulated Canadian Immigration Consultant (CICC #R533959). We help Richmond Hill clients keep their status in order while they move to the next step, and we pay close attention to the details that cause delays, such as gaps in status, travel history and inconsistent forms.
If IRCC raises concerns, we respond to procedural fairness letters, and because our founder is authorized to appear before the Immigration and Refugee Board, we can also represent you in refugee and appeal proceedings.

Richmond Hill stretches along Yonge Street in the heart of York Region. Close to six in ten residents are immigrants, and the most common countries of birth are China, Iran and Hong Kong, followed by South Korea and India.
The city also has a growing number of non-permanent residents on work and study permits, which makes status planning, extensions and the move to permanent residence everyday concerns here.

Yes. Our office is at 211 Finch Avenue West in North York, a short trip south from Richmond Hill. Many clients prefer online consultations, which work just as well for reviewing documents and planning next steps.
Contact us as early as possible. Depending on your situation, an extension, a different permit or an application for permanent residence may be the right move, and timing affects whether you can keep working while you wait.
Permanent residents must meet a residency obligation. We calculate your days in Canada, review any exceptions that may apply and advise whether a PR card renewal or another approach is appropriate.
It is a letter IRCC sends when an officer has concerns that could lead to a refusal. We review the concerns, gather supporting evidence and prepare a clear written response within the deadline.
