about fran
Frances Wipf, Sr. Counsel
Regulated Canadian Immigration Consultant
Since 2008, Fran has provided knowledgeable advice to individuals, families, and corporations looking to navigate Canada’s immigration system. Fran regularly represents clients in most categories of permanent and temporary status; as well as the entire spectrum of corporate immigration applications. She particularly enjoys the challenges of the corporate & economic immigration programs because of the ability to create win/win/win situations – the foreign national benefits by attaining status in Canada, the corporation benefits by the addition of highly skilled employees, and Canada benefits through the economic expansion that results.

It’s both personal and technical, no two cases are alike, and there is never a boring day at the office. She enjoys long term relationships with her clients and takes great pleasure in watching clients transform through the excitement of their first snowfall to emerging years later as confident leaders in Canadian society. Fran understands that it takes a lot of courage to trust a professional with a process as life-changing as an immigration application, and she ensures that all of her client files are handled with utmost transparency, care, and competence. Fran holds a degree in Human Resources and a post graduate immigration diploma. When she is not working to solve immigration puzzles, you will find her busy with her family, cooking or gardening.
