Not legal or immigration advice

Borderwise publishes general information about immigration, visas, citizenship, jobs, money, insurance and travel. Nothing on this Site is legal, immigration, tax, financial or insurance advice, and reading it does not create a lawyer–client or adviser–client relationship. We are not lawyers or licensed immigration advisers.

Immigration decisions depend on detailed personal facts. Before applying for anything, check the official government website and consider speaking to a licensed immigration lawyer or a regulated adviser in the relevant country. In the US, look for an attorney or a DOJ-accredited representative. In Canada, look for a lawyer or a licensed consultant (RCIC). In the UK, look for a solicitor or an adviser regulated by the College of Immigration Advisers.

Not affiliated with any government

Borderwise is an independent publisher. We are not affiliated with, endorsed by or acting for any government, including USCIS, the US Department of State, IRCC, the UK Home Office or UK Visas and Immigration, or the European Commission. Official applications should only be made through official government websites.

Accuracy and timeliness

We work hard to keep guides accurate and dated, but rules, fees, thresholds and processing times change, sometimes without notice. Information may be out of date by the time you read it. The official source always takes priority over our summary.

No guarantees

We cannot and do not guarantee any outcome, including the approval of a visa or application, a job offer, a credit decision or an insurance claim.

Jobs, money and insurance content

Job-related content does not mean an employer is hiring, will sponsor a visa or is legitimate. Always verify employers independently. Financial and insurance information is general and does not take into account your objectives or circumstances. Compare products carefully and consider independent professional advice.

External links and advertising

We link to third-party websites for reference and display ads served by Google and its partners. We are not responsible for third-party content, and an ad does not mean we endorse the advertiser. Be cautious of any ad or website that promises guaranteed visas or jobs.
