Common questions

Frequently asked

How is MyCaseworks different from a regular immigration lawyer?

MyCaseworks prepares the documents for you (visa forms, tenancy reviews, sponsorship packets) and a licensed attorney reviews them before you file. You pay a flat fee that is a fraction of traditional hourly legal billing - typically $99-$899 depending on the package - instead of $250-$500 per hour.

Which countries does MyCaseworks cover?

The United States, Canada, the United Kingdom, and Australia. Each country has its own attorney panel or reviewer workflow for that jurisdiction. We are particularly strong on international-student matters: F-1 / OPT / STEM OPT in the US, study permits and PGWP in Canada, the Student Route plus UK tenancy, and subclass 500 / Temporary Graduate planning in Australia.

Is MyCaseworks a law firm? Can it give me legal advice?

MyCaseworks is a document-preparation and attorney-matching platform - not a law firm. The legal advice on every order comes from a licensed attorney through their own practice; MyCaseworks connects you with that attorney and handles the workflow, secure document portal, and payment.

How fast is the turnaround?

Document preparation usually finishes in 24-72 hours. Attorney review is added on top - standard SLA is 5 business days, with priority queue available for time-sensitive filings (visa interviews, deposition deadlines, eviction notices).

How much does a service cost?

Basic document prep starts at $99. Adding async attorney review takes a typical package to $299-$499. Full attorney consultations and complex multi-document packages run $599-$1,499. Pricing is flat and shown on each service page - no surprise hourly billing.
