A dream come true- Thanks to Ashley and the rest of the InterExchange team

The IEC Working Holidays process can be daunting when you are first researching it. Ashley Ragus and the rest of the team at InterExchange made the whole process so seamless and easy to understand, from start to finish. Ashley is so supportive, kind, and extremely communicative. We met with her a number of times and she and the rest of the team guided us through every step of the process so we never felt confused. The instructions that InterExchange provided were super clear and easy to follow. Deadlines and triple-checking everything in your application is super important. It's also important to take all of pre-border crossing prep work seriously, and do it right – you will thank yourself later. It's been a dream of ours for a long time to live and work in Canada, and it feels surreal to be experiencing that now - thanks to InterExchange. I highly recommend InterExchange – 10/10 experience. Thank you Ashley and team!

When I first looked into acquiring a IEC Working Holiday visa I as admittedly a little overwhelmed by what seemed like an overload of information and documentation that would be required from me in order to successfully immigrate in Canada. From the very first time we spoke, Ashley Ragus made what felt like a very daunting process at the start feel incredibly seamless and simple by the end. I am so appreciative for her support along the way, and I am looking forward to working with her again when I reapply for 2027. Thanks for everything Ashley, you rock!

It is rare that you have a customer service experience that feels so special it makes you want to go out of your way to get other people to experience it. It is even harder to make a customer experience feel special when there no face to face interaction, but Ashley from interexchange seemed to have no problem at all. From the jump she was responsive, helpful, and kind. Whenever I had a question or concern about the process she either answered it thoroughly, or pointed me in the direction of someone who could. Deadlines are super important when it comes to visas as well as attention to detail and these guys know their craft! Not only were the application instructions clear and thorough, but the staff followed up when there were changes or questions asked to make sure that everything was done correctly and I had all of the information that I needed. Someone give Ashley a raise!
