We try to serve all clients in a timely manner but please note that ISSofBC is not a government organization and we only provide services to newcomers living in British Columbia.

If you are outside of Canada, please contact IRCC (formerly CIC).

Our Funders

For over 50 years we have worked with Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada (IRCC) and the Government of British Columbia to provide a range of key services for immigrants and refugees who arrive and live in British Columbia.

We thank the IRCC and the Government of BC for their support and funding.
