The Welcome Centre in New Market does not provide legal services. Legal assistance with your IRCC application can be provided by a Regulated Immigration Consultant (RCIC) or Lawyer. Maxcan Immigration employs RCIC Mary Zhang. Our offices are located in New Market at 7030 Woodbine Avenue, which is a 25 minute drive from the New Market Welcome Centre. Though this may seem like a bit of drive, Maxcan is located outside of downtown Toronto and is easily accessed from the 404. We are much more conveniently located than other Immigration Lawyers and Consultants.
