Rao Consultants
Premier service provider for citizenship and residency solutions.
Rao Consultants is an India-based education and immigration practice supporting students, skilled professionals and families with study, work, permanent-residence, visitor and family routes plus test and post-visa services.
From education counselling to international mobility
Rao Consultants was founded by Urmila Rao in 2002. It grew from an overseas-education consultancy into a broader visa and immigration organisation with more than one hundred professionals. The client base includes students, skilled workers, families, entrepreneurs and other people preparing for an international move.
The practice is particularly relevant when education, language testing and immigration need to be planned together. It is not limited to investment migration and should be assessed according to the route and destination expertise required for a specific case.
Study routes and examination support
Education services include course and institution guidance, student-visa preparation, examination coaching and support after arrival. This can help a student connect academic admission, financial evidence and immigration timing in one plan.
Students and parents should confirm whether the service covers admissions, scholarships, visa work or only selected stages. Institution decisions and visa decisions are separate, and neither can be guaranteed by a consultant.
Skilled work and permanent residence
The immigration practice covers permanent residence in Canada and Australia, Germany's , Portugal's job-seeker visa and other work-permit routes. These options may depend on age, qualifications, language, occupation, experience, sponsorship or labour-market conditions.
A sound assessment should explain the scoring or statutory criteria, identify documents still needed and distinguish eligibility from competitiveness. Clients should ask how changes in occupation lists, quotas or government processing affect the proposed strategy.
Family, visitor and business travel
Rao also supports visitor and business visas, family and dependant applications and selected investor or entrepreneur options. The evidence required for a short visit differs from that needed for family reunification or a long-term business route.
Families should check how the main applicant's status affects dependants, work rights, schooling, medical coverage and future permanent residence. Business clients should confirm whether company or investment advice is included or referred to an external specialist.
Branches, help desk and post-visa support
Rao Consultants is headquartered at Rao Corporate House near Shilaj Circle in Ahmedabad and has a United States office in Schaumburg, Illinois, with additional Ahmedabad branches. Clients can begin through a branch, telephone, messaging or the help desk.
The team can coordinate education, visa preparation and practical post-visa assistance as one journey. Before engagement, clients should identify the case manager, update schedule, services included after approval, professional charges and the official fees paid directly to institutions or authorities. Original-document handling should also be agreed.
