From first call to
IRCC approval.
Here's every step.
No black boxes. No "trust us." This page shows you exactly what happens to your application from the moment you book a consultation to the moment you click Submit on IRCC - in precise, honest detail.
7 steps. Every one of them shown.
Most immigration services operate as a black box - you hand over documents and money, and eventually something comes back. GetNorthPath is the opposite. Every step is visible in your dashboard, every action is notified in real time, and every person responsible is named.
Click any step below to jump directly to the full explanation - with screenshots, exact timing, and a breakdown of who does what (AI vs human consultant).
Book your free
30-minute consultation.
The process starts with a real conversation. Not a chatbot, not a form - a 30-minute call with a GetNorthPath case manager who listens to your situation and tells you honestly which pathway fits your profile.
This call is genuinely free. No credit card. No obligation. If GetNorthPath isn't the right fit for your situation, your case manager will tell you that directly - and won't charge you for saying so.
Join your secure
client portal.
After your consultation, you receive an invitation to your personal client portal. This is your single home for the entire application - documents, status, communications, and your consultant's contact - in one encrypted space.
You'll fill in your personal details, and the system generates a personalised document checklist specific to your application type and country of citizenship. No more guessing what you need.
AI validates every
document instantly.
The moment a document lands in your vault, GetNorthPath's AI engine runs four sequential validation passes - extraction, cross-validation, IRCC rules check, and completeness audit. All within 10 seconds.
This is the feature that directly addresses the problem our founder experienced. Issues that caused last-minute panic at other firms are caught here - on day one, not day 55 of your 60-day window.
AI follow-ups keep
your application moving.
Immigration applications stall when clients miss document requests, forget to upload something, or don't realise time is passing. GetNorthPath's automated follow-up system ensures none of that happens to you.
AI monitors your application in real time and sends proactive WhatsApp and email nudges whenever action is needed - whether it's uploading a corrected document, responding to a consultant note, or simply a reminder that your deadline is approaching.
Your consultant reviews
everything. Personally.
Once your documents are complete and AI-validated, your named consultant performs a full expert review. This is not a rubber stamp - they read every document, check every field, and apply immigration judgment to your specific situation.
At this stage, AI has already caught every factual error. Your consultant's job is the part that AI can't do: immigration strategy, edge case judgment, and the professional sign-off that ensures your application is correctly presented to IRCC.
AI fills every
IRCC form automatically.
Once your documents are consultant-approved, AI auto-fills every required IRCC government form using your verified data. Every field. Every form. The current version. Zero manual entry.
Traditional consultants spend hours copying passport numbers, dates, and addresses into IRCC forms - and still make errors. GetNorthPath does it in seconds using data already extracted and validated in Step 3.
One click. Your application
is submitted to IRCC.
This is the moment everything comes together. Install the GetNorthPath Chrome Extension, open your IRCC portal, and click one button. Your entire consultant-approved, AI-validated application loads directly into every IRCC field - instantly.
No re-typing. No copy-pasting. No risk of a typo in your passport number causing a refusal. You review the pre-filled portal, confirm everything looks correct, and click Submit. You're done.
All 7 steps - at a glance.

"Step 3 is what changed everything for me. The AI flagged a date mismatch on my employment letter within 30 seconds of uploading. With my previous consultant that same issue was only discovered 10 days before the 60-day deadline."
Step 3 - AI Document Validation"Step 6 and 7 saved me an entire day. My previous applications took me 4 hours on the IRCC portal - filling forms field by field, terrified of making a typo. GetNorthPath filled everything from my documents and I submitted in under 5 minutes."
Step 6 & 7 - Forms + Extension"The WhatsApp notifications in Step 4 were genuinely helpful. I'm busy - I don't check email obsessively. The reminders meant I never forgot to upload something or missed a consultant note. The whole process felt managed, not chaotic."
