Canada Abroad Process
We will make your application as easy and stress-free as possible. When looking to immigrate to Canada you have a choice to do the application yourself, or to use the assistance of a legally authorized representative.
Many people ask the question, “Why should I use a Representative?”
Some of the main benefits to using a representative are as follows:
- Our Regulated Canadian Immigration Consultants know all of the ins and outs of the Canadian immigration process
- We will save you valuable time by completing your application on your behalf
- You can expect shorter processing times as no delays will be caused by missing or incorrect documents or information
- We are authorized by Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada to represent you in your Canadian immigration application, which means we can act on your behalf in all dealings with IRCC
- We are members in good standing with The College of Immigration and Citizenship Consultants (CICC), which can give you peace of mind that we are a reputable company operating under the law

Deanne Acres-Lans was born and raised in British Columbia, a diverse and stunningly beautiful province on Canada’s west coast, home to the city of Vancouver. After working for the government as a Canada Border Services Officer with a focus on immigration, she became a Regulated Canadian Immigration Consultant and set up Canada Abroad, which for many years operated from an office in South Africa. Eventually, the call of Canada was too strong to ignore, and Canada Abroad is now based in Canada. In particular, Deanne decided to move into private practice after seeing first-hand the amount of immigration scams, which unfortunately continue to affect immigrants and would-be immigrants around the world. As a result, she opened her own company — Canada Abroad — with a focus on honesty and ethical practices.
Werner Lans is also a Regulated Canadian Immigration Consultant (RCIC) who is originally from South Africa and has gone through the immigration process himself. He is a member in good standing with the College of Immigration and Citizenship Consultants (CICC). Werner is also a partner at Canada Abroad and focuses on business development.
