How do I become an
RCIC?

 

If you want to become a Regulated Canadian Immigration Consultant (RCIC), you must:

• Be at least 18 years of age;
• Complete the Graduate Diploma Program (Queen’s University Graduate Diploma in Immigration and Citizenship Law or the D.E.S.S. en réglementation canadienne et québécoise de l’immigration offered in French by the University of Montréal) or have completed the former Immigration Practitioner Program (IPP) within the last 3 years;
• Achieve at least the minimum required score on a College-approved English or French language ability test (required for all candidates except graduates from the Queen’s University and University of Montréal graduate diploma programs, as these 2 programs have integrated the College’s language ability requirement into their admission requirements); and
• Successfully pass the College’s Entry-to-Practice Exam (RCIC EPE).
• Follow the licensing process to obtain your licence

Once you are licensed, you must meet your obligations and complete the Ongoing Education for RCICs, including the new Mentoring Program.
