Why Facebook and Instagram ads work for immigration consultants
Facebook and Instagram are where many future immigrants research programs, join groups and compare consultants, often from outside Canada. Licensed consultants who share accurate, useful program updates and show their CICC licence build the trust that turns followers into paying clients.

Facebook and Instagram for immigration consultants
Many clients come from communities where Facebook, Instagram and WhatsApp are primary sources of information. Ads in the languages your team speaks, with the consultant explaining eligibility or recent changes, build trust. Click-to-WhatsApp ads suit clients who want to ask questions first.
Because fraud is common in immigration, ads should never promise guaranteed approval, and credentials should be prominent. Meta may also treat some immigration offers as sensitive, so we follow its policies closely.
