Has anyone heard of this consultant Mark Holthe and his online course on how to prepare application forms? Wanted to make sure it's worth the not_so-small amount of money he's asking for his course before buying. Couldn't find any Google reviews.

Thanks

Why bother? It's easy to do yourself

It's not worth it.

I know how bureaucrats enjoy rejecting files and delaying the process. I just wanted to learn things that forms wouldn't tell you and avoid any delays, because we can't afford delays.

Read the instructions carefully. Triple check everything. Check five times that you've done signatures.

Despite this, probably 95/100 of the returned ones we see here are simple obvious errors (maybe 2/3 of returns?), most of the rest screwed up signatures. Very small percentage are some error on part of IRCC.

IMO you won't learn that from Mark Holthe's courses. People in the Express Entry section of the forum have a low opinion of him since they feel he essentially charges people money just to recap information that is already available on the IRCC website and/or that is shared on forums like these.

To the best of my knowledge, his program is also geared towards EE. So if you are applying through Family Class, this won't be useful.

But it's your money.

For the time being, anyway.
