North York Immigration Consultant

Looking for a trusted immigration consultant serving North York? Maxcan Immigration has helped hundreds of families, workers, and students across Willowdale, Don Mills, Bayview Village, and every corner of North York navigate the Canadian immigration system — with the personal attention and local expertise that make a real difference.

Your Local Immigration Consultant Serving North York, Ontario

North York is one of the most diverse parts of the Greater Toronto Area — home to established communities like Willowdale, Don Mills, and Bayview Village, growing neighbourhoods near the North York City Centre, and everything in between. Wherever you live in the former City of North York, navigating Canada’s immigration system is rarely straightforward. The rules change frequently, the paperwork is demanding, and the stakes — for you and your family — couldn’t be higher.

Maxcan Immigration is based just across Steeles Avenue from North York, at Woodbine Avenue and Highway 404 in Markham. Founded by Mary L. Zhang, who immigrated to Canada from China herself, Maxcan brings firsthand understanding of what the immigration journey feels like — and what it takes to get it right. Mary is a member in good standing of the College of Immigration and Citizenship Canada (CICC) and the Law Society of Ontario (LSO).

We don’t just file paperwork. We assess your specific situation, build the strongest possible application, and stay with you every step of the way.

What We Help With

Whether you are just beginning to explore your options or facing an urgent immigration issue, Maxcan covers the full range of Canadian immigration services:

Family Sponsorship Sponsor your spouse, common-law partner, conjugal partner, or dependent children for permanent residence. We handle spousal sponsorship, partner sponsorship, and parent and grandparent sponsorship, and we represent you if a refusal needs to be appealed.

Permanent Residence Apply for permanent residence through Express Entry (Federal Skilled Worker, Federal Skilled Trades, or Canadian Experience Class), Provincial Nominee Programs (PNP), or other pathways. We assess your profile, advise on timing, and build a complete, accurate application.

Work Permits Come to Canada to work — with or without an LMIA — or extend and change the conditions of an existing work permit. We also assist employers with the Labour Market Impact Assessment process.

Study Permits Study at a Canadian university, college, or secondary school. We help students apply for study permits, extensions, and post-graduation work permits for foreign students. Many North York families send children to Seneca College, York University, and Toronto Metropolitan University — we regularly assist students at all three.

Visitor Visas and Super Visas Visit Canada or bring your parents or grandparents to Canada for an extended stay under the Super Visa program. We also assist clients who have been previously refused and need help rebuilding their application.

Temporary Resident Permits and Criminal Rehabilitation Been denied entry to Canada due to a criminal record? We help clients pursue Temporary Resident Permits (TRP) and Criminal Rehabilitation so they can visit, work, or live in Canada.

Humanitarian and Compassionate Applications If you don’t fit neatly into any standard immigration category, you may still have options. We advise on Humanitarian and Compassionate (H&C) grounds applications and help clients who need to appeal a refusal or change of status.

US Visas In addition to Canadian immigration, Maxcan also has experience with US visitor visas, TN visas, intra-company transfer visas, US waiver, and humanitarian parole applications. Mary partners with seasoned U.S. attorneys to give clients more comprehensive support.

Our office sits right on North York’s doorstep at Woodbine Avenue and Highway 404, just across Steeles Avenue from neighbourhoods like Hillcrest Village and Don Valley Village. For clients throughout North York, that means an easy drive up the DVP, along Yonge Street, or across Steeles — no need to fight downtown traffic or parking to see a regulated consultant.

Genuinely local. North York, Markham, and the rest of the GTA are our home base. Many of our clients come to us by word of mouth from neighbours, friends, and coworkers we have already helped.

Personal attention to every case. Mary provides personalized service, answers calls and emails promptly, explains every step clearly, and never makes you feel like just another file number.

We understand what’s at stake. Our founder immigrated to Canada herself. She knows that behind every application is a person, and often a family, whose life is shaped by the outcome. We take that seriously.
