The staff helped me with the rest of the formalities starting from document preparation to the visa filing. Thank you Pioneer Immigration.
I had heard a lot about the excellent reputation that Pioneer Immigration enjoys for its genuineness and transparency. It is this reputation that motivated me to get in touch with Pioneers team for filing my study visa application. I consider myself fortunate to have taken that decision and I am really happy to have got my study visa.
I have chosen Pioneers Immigration because my friend told me the speciality of their staff in study visa. So, then I visited their office in Chandigarh and liked the way in which they provide services to their students. I usually think I took a right decision by choosing Pioneers Immigration.
I am fully satisfied with the Pioneers Immigration, cooperative staff and helps me alot in getting my visa . I choose Fairleigh Dickinson University for Bachelor of Business Administration . Thanks Pioneers.
