Did anybody get their money back? How is it possible that this 'company' still operates and nobody did anything with that...

This website is a scam!!!! STAY AWAY!! They will stay on the phone with you for an hour+ faking their interest in your case and then request money over the phone. If you try reject that and ask for an email with a link for payment or receipt they will not entertain you further and will become very hostile very quickly!!! I unfortunately paid for the first step and learnt this for the 'second' step of the application. STAY AWAY!
The official pathway through the government link is easy and clear, no need for third party to get involved.

This website is a total scam. They promise to take care of your immigration needs. What they do is redirect you to other websites and get paid for it. During the conversation, they demand personal data and credit card information. Even if you decline or try to decline, you are repeatedly harassed by phone and email. They then try to harass you further via another website employee, such as the legal department. Even after blocking the phone calls and emails, they continue to harass you, even to the point of blackmailing you. Absolutely not trustworthy. DO NOT FALL FOR THIS WEBSITE UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES

Scam company
I filled out their form to know more about the procedure. They called me and asked for lots of info. On the phone, I was told that my profile is eligible and I have to complete my application immediately!! and pay few hundred bucks!!
I told her that I was curious about the program and if I want to apply for it I need to discuss it with my wife. She was insisting that I need to complete it now or I delete your profile. So, I told her to do it.

It is hard to believe that they are not scam!

it's A SCAM ! but they didn't got me. Has a call after put answer in a form. a woman called me and asked me question and after finish redirect me to pay. I reply i want to first know better who you are. She try to reassure me but insist and insist and insist to make me pay NOW otherwise I would lose this opportunity.

when i decline, she asked me confirmation to close the file and loose forever the opportunity and i replied ok, she hang up without saying goodbye.

It is natural for anyone to question the legitimacy of any service being provided to them. And when I did so, this is where things quickly spiraled in a downward direction.

Do I want to move to Canda? The answer is yes. That is why I initally started the application process. It was just $39 at the time for an assessment. From that point on, I was told that a number of documents had to be prepared and each time, I was asked to spend more. To date, I have spent more than USD 3000. I am not exactly sure what the funds covered.
I received receipts with very little detail as to what the fee covered, for example, 'documentation preparation'. It became concerning to me that I have been unable to see the actual result or form that was prepared. I was told that my application was approved but saw nothing to confirm same. I was being asked to provide an additional $2000 for the job search process which I was told was necessary to complete the application and an additional $2500 to include my fiance.

I spoke with someone called Tim Jones. I tried multiple times to ask Tim to provide some sort of evidence to prove to me that I was not being scammed. Instead, he kept repeating the process steps and was easily angered, and expressed same to me. He could not address my concerns. A receipt is not sufficient evidence to prove something. One also needs to see a submitted document and date submitted etc. If the form includes details about me, shouldn't I be consulted to review the details before it's submitted. Things became more and more unclear as time progressed, which I tried to express to Tim and which I tried to seek clarity on.

After expressing my uncertainty due to the inability for the service provider to prove that this was legit, I was DEMANDED there and then to provide a response as to whether I wanted to proceed with the steps mentioned above. There was no time for me to consider it. Tim Jones hung up with emotion, which evidences poor customer service and proves that this service was questionable. Do not demand reaponses from adults who question how their hard earned money is spent. Instead, prove that it was used for the purpose intended. A website and vague invoice is not enough. Anyone can set up a website. My mistake was trusting someone blindly before doing my own due diligence.

As a service provider, if you are legit, your role is to ensure I am comfortable every step of the way and that my concerns are addressed vs demanding answers from me.
I even asked for reviews from other customers but nothing could be provided.

Overall, very suspicious. Do not waste your time.

I would like to provide a factual account of my experience with CanadaIMS.

In 2024, I engaged CanadaIMS for immigration-related services and paid a total of approximately €10,000. While parts of the service were delivered, substantial portions of the agreed service package were not fulfilled. Following multiple written requests, a partial refund of around €4,700 was issued. As of this date, an outstanding balance of approximately €5,400 remains unresolved.

In the course of correspondence, I requested basic corporate and regulatory information (e.g., licensing number, registered office, legal representative), as typically required by EU and Canadian legal standards. These requests were not met, despite my reference to applicable transparency and consumer protection obligations.

Due to the unresolved financial matter and the lack of disclosure, I submitted a formal report to Austrian law enforcement authorities, where the case is now being handled as "severe fraud". The relevant legal proceedings are currently in progress.

This review is shared solely for informational purposes and is based on documented communication, payment records, and official filings.

I encourage any parties who have had similar experiences to seek legal advice and preserve all documentation.

Canada IMS has shown a clear pattern of dishonest and exploitative behavior. I was repeatedly and unexpectedly asked to pay more and more money — totaling $7,889 USD — with each new charge excused by vague claims of internal “department fees,” administrative costs, or government charges. I was eventually told in writing that I had paid in full and nothing more would be required.

Yet months later, they demanded an additional $4,500, citing supposed new visa-related government fees. When I asked for clear answers, they dodged the question entirely and refused to clarify the issue.

Their communication is evasive, their commitments meaningless, and their practices borderline fraudulent. After checking Trustpilot, it’s obvious I’m not alone — this company has a pattern of manipulating clients for more money under false pretenses. In my opinion, Canada IMS should be investigated for deceptive business practices.

Avoid at all costs.

I had reacted to an internet ad of the company, which looked serious. It asked for personal information "to check eligibility" (age, profession, nationality, marital status, personal data, etc). Having filled in the requested information, I received an email stating "Eligibility - Confirmed - Your invitation is available for a limited time". I did not press the "View your invitation" button. Instead, a few days later, I was contacted on my mobile from a Vancouver phone number (1-778-654-3379) at around 3am (PacificDaylight Time) by an eloquent, friendly and obviously native English speaking guy. He asked me for further personal information (as well as information I had already provided) to check my "eligibility". He pretended to consult "the system" and came back half a minute later to confirm my eligibility. However, to progress further he asked me to now pay a fee of "only" €347. When I asked him to send me this request via email, he refused to do so, pointing at their website for all general information. Fortunately, while talking to him, I had opened this Trustpilot website. Thank you guys for providing these warnings! When I said to the guy that I had to leave for another call, he warned me that he could not keep the invitation open, and I might lose my eligibility. Didn't really sound trustworthy any more!

Am so angry, heartbroken and disappointed with myself, I spent almost $10,000 and they are demanding more. Canadaims is taking advantage of desperate individuals like us with dreams...

It was late 2022 when my brother called me to give this information, obtained from a person of faith. Spoke to this person of faith who was with my brother in his car and said if you want to re-allocate to Canada, contact them & they will make it happen, they're good and swift, in no time you will be in Canada!
I never thought a 2nd to check their reviews. My first payment was on 2023-07-30,
I was initially alarmed by their constant asking of payments, I kept paying them because of assurance I got from that person of faith, my mind was glued that it is coming from a reliable, trusted source therefore never questioned its legitimacy. And I have paid them 13 times.
I should have come here & see their reviews.
To everyone out there please don't be stupid like me, check the reviews before committing to your hard, earned money...
Am demanding my money back! Anyone who has received their money back?

I've been dealing with this company for a few years now every time they call it's a payment needed which I did. Every time they say you at the final stage. Received a call for another $3000 for again my "final stage" I've invested so much in this, if this is a scam can one take things further. My next payment is due the 26 May. Please can someone assist.

Spent over £9k on them to help me emigrate they don't offer any help just want more and more money for their services which has resulted in absolutely zero progress. I am taking this further, wondered if anyone else has maybe theres a case here for sure.

These people are unreal, I got completely scammed. I lost a lot of money I am so ashamed. I have been with them for nearly 9 months. I realised something was wrong when, despite having lots of points I still hadn't been called. I must start the process all over again. I am disgusted. Please AVOID. DO NOT lose your money like I did.
Edit: Thanks to this review I think, CanadaIMS paid me back around a third of the money I spent once I refused to continue with there service. Thank you to them for that.

Stay away they will steal your money

I wish I had read the reviews on this website. They offer nothing more than filling out your CRS profile which you can do for free. They offer lots of pathways which are all available to you anyway. please save your money and do it yourself

Ask them if they are doing anything more than just filling out your CRS profile.

This is a SCAMMMMM
My husband called them to JUST have some information about immigration and etc…. And they took from him his phone number and his e-mail, after minutes, he received a invoice in his email…. Guyssss they just stole 389,00€ from his bank account, I called them back, saying that my husband didn’t contact anything, and I asked for a refund, but they just hang out the phone, they are a piece of shit, don’t call them, it’s a really dangerous spam

Fake company, only out to get your money. I initially started the immigration process with them asking to get a working visa for a trip. When I got a call back after I sent my documents, they started talking to me about a permanent residency… not what I was after so first red flag. They constantly push you for money, any reputable immigration firm will not take any money from you before paperwork is finalised and approved for a visa. I unfortunate gave my card details, and have since heard nothing back from them after saying I will not be continuing with their services… shock. Can’t stress enough how much you should avoid this company

Absolute Scam, called me today with a very strange Indian accent, as a german you can hear that too :)
The guy asked me a lot of things but nothing about my idea to move to Canada, after a few minutes he asked me about my credit-card. That was the point, I realized that this BS is a fraud. Don’t do business with these Bast…
