Highly recommend. The staff were always friendly, attentive, and quick to address any questions or issues I brought to their attention. They made the process of obtaining permanent residency as painless as possible
Our case to get shifted to Canada started in the year 2018. Priorly, I had met with the other consultants but to be frank, no one was like Vinay. His services were unbeatable and within a quick time, I got a visa for going to Canada. High five to him
Vinay and his team are amazing! Working with them on my application was the best decision, as they were well-organised, professional and took away all the stress I was feeling. They were excellent at providing accurate information, advice that was considered and were patient with answering all my questions. I could not recommend them highly enough
It was an honor to work and we consider ourselves lucky to have Vinay and his team. They become a hope to us when our options appeared limited. Vinay and Monika have expert immigration knowledge and they are very passionate about their work and go out of the way to help. Love you Guys and highly recommend Sandpiper Visas and his team

Excellent immigration consultancy in India. This is a looooong overdue review!!! My partner and I were informed that the 820 partner visa was approved a couple of months ago thanks to Sandpiper Visas! The team at Sandpiper Visas were incredible helpful. My partner and I were quite overwhelmed by all of the legal terminology and it was difficult to navigate the site ourselves so we decided to look into getting professional assistance and we’re really glad we did! 🙂 Special thanks to Monika and Vinay. Highly recommended Consultants in India
Vinay gives honest and innovative suggestions on how to approach different situations. He is attentive, quick to respond to my questions/concerns and very knowledgeable in his field. Vinay is the best Immigration consultant I have come across after consulting several others. I would highly recommend him
The Consultants at Sandpiper Visas are amazing! They are all so professional and very reasonably priced.
