“Yesterday I came to your office to collect my passport with my recently approved investment visa extension.

I would like to thank and commend you all for the outstanding support, diligence and professionalism you have demonstrated from day one, since I reached out to you over a year ago asking for solutions to my working visa situation.

With your help, I was able to get an investment visa and now its extension. Not only did you deliver what no other agency said they could, you did it with outstanding clarity and efficiency. On top of that, every one of you that I interacted with was always super friendly and helpful, without exception.

I have recommended you to several of my friends this past year and will certainly continue to do so. I wish you all the best and thank you once again!”

PD, Hong Kong.
