Be Wary of Guaranteed Approvals
No consultancy can control an embassy's or immigration department's decision. A consultant who guarantees approval, or implies a 'special connection' to speed things up, should be treated with caution — that's not how the process works.
Ask About Their Track Record and Specialisation
Consultancies that specialise in specific countries tend to understand each destination's document standards and common pitfalls more deeply than generalists handling every country at once.
Understand the Fee Structure Upfront
A reputable consultancy explains its fees clearly and separates its own charges from government, embassy or institutional fees, so you know exactly what you're paying for at each stage.
Look for Transparency About Your Own Odds
A consultant who is willing to tell you honestly if your current profile is weak — and what would strengthen it — is generally more trustworthy than one who tells every client they're a strong candidate.
Key Takeaways
- Treat any guarantee of visa approval as a warning sign.
- Country specialisation often means deeper, more current process knowledge.
- Insist on a clear, itemised fee structure before engaging any consultancy.
- Value honesty about your eligibility over blanket reassurance.
