    The document discusses potential fraud by immigration agencies in Bangladesh and provides warnings. It notes that while some agencies operate with transparency, others may charge excessive fees, provide fake documents, or seize documents. Recently, immigration authorities have been stricter in verifying legitimacy of documents, and suspicious applications could be refused or lead to bans. People should be wary of unsolicited contact requesting payments or guarantees and only transfer fees once the official application process has begun to avoid scams.

    Visa application is kind of intimidating because it not only costs you a good amount of money but also put

    your future at
    shake. Keeping in mind, some people choose to apply by themselves while others take help from agencies. I’m not
    supporting them nor encouraging students to apply through them. It’s just a point of view of mine for smoothing your visa
    application journey.

    In recent years, agencies in Bangladesh have reported many fraudulent cases. Not all of them are grifters, there are few
    agencies with transparent motives and dedication. Here are few points agencies can fraud you with-

    • Charging excessive amount of money


    • Providing fake offer letters
    • Suggest you to make fake documents to enrich your profile (e.g. Tax papers, Bank documents, Fake property
    documents etc.)
    • Suggest you to take student loan from random organizations (Student loan doesn’t exist legally in Bangladesh.
    • They can also provide you with fake visas you won’t be able to find out easily. (Though it’s rare but it exists)
    • Agencies can also seize your passport and important documents to blackmail you for money.

    To be honest, few people may have got visas by faking some documents but recently IRCC is going strict enough and
    enquiring the legitimacy of documents. If your documents are found suspicious, your visa application will be refused and
    you may also get a ban for entering Canada.

    Some point to be noted

    Please remember, IRCC will never contact you in person or through phone to request payment of fees or fines for any
    reason. Fraudsters are offering unrealistically low-price immigration services, guarantee secured jobs and employment
    contracts, offer faster application processing, or ask you to pay to access immigration forms and guidelines. Scammers
    provide these guarantees to steal your personal or and/or financial information. Be careful to transfer any fees, specially
    when you are asked to pay application access fees or any deposits before the actual application process has started. Then
    comes the border fraud. This type of fraud can be witnessed on Canadian borders and must 9be reported. It can include
    marriages of convenience, providing false or misleading information, someone wanted on an immigration warrant, or
    other signs of suspicious border activities.
