What Is an RCIC?

A Regulated Canadian Immigration Consultant (RCIC) is a professional authorized by the College of Immigration and Citizenship Consultants (CICC) to provide immigration advice and represent clients before Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada (IRCC).

Legally Authorized

Only licensed RCICs, lawyers, and notaries (in Quebec) can legally charge for immigration advice.

Regulated by CICC

RCICs are governed by strict ethics and must complete ongoing education.

Accountable to You

The CICC has a formal complaint process to protect clients.

Trained & Tested

RCICs must pass exams and complete accredited programs.

Why Verification Matters

  • Unlicensed consultants (often called 'ghost agents') operate illegally and have no accountability.

  • Thousands of people are scammed every year by unregistered immigration agents.

  • If something goes wrong, you have no recourse when using an unlicensed consultant.

  • Licensed RCICs carry professional liability insurance to protect you.

  • The CICC maintains a public registry so you can verify any consultant's status in minutes.
