Gateway Pacific worked with us as a family to help us apply for our work permits and then our Permanent Residence application – what a fantastic organization! John was great to work with… he communicated clearly and promptly, kept us in the loop and our immigration application was processed with no issues because of his hard work and support.

We’ll be working with him on any future citizenship applications for sure!

My experience with Gateway Pacific Immigration was excellent. Mr. John is really helpful and knowledgeable. I got my PR approved under his guidance. He has answered all my questions thoroughly and is very professional. I would highly recommend his firm for immigration related services.

We’ll be working with him on any future citizenship applications for sure!

John and Gateway Pacific are fantastic! Immigrating is a long, complicated, life changing, often emotional experience. This agent is worth every penny.
I immigrated to Australia 7 years ago with a genaric online company as my agent and had nothing but problems so when it came time for us to move back to Canada I was searching for just the right agent to get my husband’s Permanent Residence compleated as simply as possible. John was available, very knowledgeable, communicated clearly and always up-to-date with the current laws and changes. I would recommend John and his company a thousand times over. Could not be more grateful. Thank you so much!

 

Krista Gebhard

John was absolutely essential for my family’s migration to Canada. His guidance was always clear and simple. He helped us surpass some very difficult obstacles. He is knowledgeable and courteous, I will come back to him if needed and surely I highly recommend him.

Another stress free and efficient interaction with John and Gateway Pacific!
I truly cannot thank John enough for the knowledge that he provided me, and the competency in which all information was delivered.
After using John and Gateway Pacific for a variety of immigration services over a period of 3 years, I wouldn’t consider going elsewhere, and I will be back!
Always impartial, personable, and expeditious……thank you John!

 

Laura Campbell

Outstanding service with great knowledge of the system. Helping us with all family members each of whom had different requirements, John at Gateway has been there for every step. Prompt and informed with communication, his in depth understanding of our needs and the immigration process was invaluable to our family. I would recommend Gateway Pacific to anyone seeking to navigate through the syste

 

Andrew Morrison

Paying money to hire “assistance” in the Immigration process seemed like a lot of money – but honestly, John’s services were worth every single penny! John was efficient, thorough and quick to answer every question we had from the VERY beginning until the FINAL approval for permanent residency. We have friends who are “doing it themselves” – and they are facing so many paperwork complications – making their process long and frustrating (and still not complete). We are so delighted we hired John. Without any hesitation, we 100% recommend John Lironi (Gateway Pacific Immigration)!

Pankaj Bindra

John and Gateway Pacific have offered me the best immigration experience, from the first step of gathering documents for the application to Express Entry to the last step of arriving in Canada to get my confirmation of PR and then the PR card. John is an extremely knowledgeable expert that can answer any of your question and guide you throughout every step of the application process. His average turnaround was maximum one day for all of my questions (and I had many), and it almost felt like I am the only client he is working with (though I know he had many others). John and his company are genuinely with you throughout the immigration process, and you can easily tell that they actually care when you are stressed or confused. I would definitely recommend Gateway Pacific and John to anybody, and I am referring even my closest friends who wish to migrate to Canada to John with utmost confidence. Grateful & lucky for this exceptional service!
