Province Immigration Cheated Us – Full Story of Lies, Pressure, and Emotional Harassment
I am posting this review to warn others so that no one else gets trapped like we did. What started as a hopeful Canada PR process turned into months of stress, lies, false promises, and financial loss because of Province Immigration Pvt. Ltd. This company is run by Ms. Shweta Chugh and Mr. Sachin Kumar and is based in New Delhi.
On 26 March 2024, I paid ₹1, 00, 300 to Province Immigration under their “Holi 1 plus 1 Canada PR” offer. I was promised that two PR files would be applied—one for me and one for my sibling.
We were in contact with Mr. Prateek Motwani, who introduced himself as the Sales Manager. He spoke confidently and used convincing language. Later, we found out that he is actually a theatre artist by profession and not an immigration expert. He now runs another company called WE Immigration. Before taking the money, he prepared my CRS score and assured me that I was eligible under the PNP program.
On the same day, he sent a PR assessment report in my name, Rupali Gupta. The report said that I had 69 points under the Federal Skilled Worker Program, which is more than the required 67. It clearly said I was “good to go.” Trusting them, I made the full payment.
But within 10 days of payment, their team told me that I was not eligible for Canada PR. This was a complete shock because it was the opposite of what they said before taking the money.
We confronted Prateek, and he admitted on a recorded phone call that he had made a mistake while assessing my file. But even after this, they refused to refund the full amount.
To avoid refunding the money, they said they had already paid a Canada-based RCIC consultant named Neat Immigration. But when I contacted Neat Immigration directly, they replied, “We do not work with Province Immigration and we do not offer B2B services in India.” When my sibling asked Ms. Shweta Chugh about this, she simply replied, “We can’t disclose names of the RCIC.” It became clear they were lying again.
Then they started putting pressure on us about the agreement. The agreement wasn’t even on stamp paper or notarised. It was just sent through Gmail. We signed that agreement with Province Immigration. They told us it was the client’s duty to meet the required points, but when we explained that this only applies when the client is told the truth—and in our case, they lied about eligibility—they still refused to refund.
After many follow-ups, they returned only ₹50, 000. For the remaining ₹50, 300, they gave us a so-called “service credit note.” We were forced to accept it. They said if we didn’t accept it, we would get nothing. We have emails and the fake invoice they gave us, which also contains incorrect GST details. The GST invoice was issued months after the payment.
In the first week of December 2024, my sibling visited their office in Delhi. The receptionist said Sachin was not there, but my sibling saw him inside and insisted on meeting. Sachin agreed to speak. My sibling politely asked for a refund, but he refused.
Then in late December, my sibling requested IELTS classes to be arranged according to Canadian time since I was already living in Canada. My sibling kept messaging and calling Sachin, but he never replied. They later claimed they had assigned a trainer named Navdeep Nath, but we never received any official communication or proof of this.
During this period, I was contacted by Ms. Navdeep Nath, who initially introduced herself as “Prabhjot.” She said she runs her own IELTS institute, APM Study Abroad in Gwalior, along with her brother Mr. Pardeep. She claimed she got my number from the Province office after seeing me “begging” for my refund. She said she was offering me free IELTS classes out of sympathy, as she had just broken her contract with Province Immigration because they had also cheated her. She told me she was never paid her salary, and that Ms. Shweta Chugh and Mr. Sachin Kumar were unethical and rude.
She repeatedly portrayed herself as independent from Province Immigration and said she only wanted good relations and to build her reputation by saying that she had taught international students. She told me that Province Immigration regularly traps clients by first taking PR money and then pushing them into unwanted services like IELTS.
However, this entire story was a lie.
Later, I discovered that Ms. Navdeep was still working with Province Immigration and was actively being paid by them. Her so-called “free help” was actually part of a planned setup to make it appear that Province Immigration had delivered services to me. This was done so they could avoid refunding my money and falsely claim that IELTS services were provided, which I never agreed to, never signed for, and never consented to.
This fake sympathy, emotional manipulation, and false claim o[censored]npaid salary were part of a clear strategy to deceive me and cover up Province Immigration’s fraud. There was no agreement or consent from me to take any IELTS or PTE classes from either Province Immigration or APM Study Abroad.
Ms. Navdeep was also not a skilled teacher. She often joined classes late, gave excuses, and spent most of the time chatting instead of teaching. She said she was helping out of goodwill, but she gave only around 21 short classes across two months. Most were just 10 to 15 minutes long. Many classes were cancelled with excuses like illness or personal issues. We have full chat records, call logs, and screenshots.
On 30 July 2025, I sent a final email asking for the refund of my remaining ₹53, 000. Mr. Sachin Kumar called and mocked us. He said, “So what if we wrote 2015 on the site? Go legal if you want.” He also said, “Ab 6 mahine baad yaad aa raha hai yeh sab?” which means, “Now after 6 months you are remembering all this?” Then he said, “We gave you IELTS services, ” and that is when it all became clear—they had tricked us again using Navdeep.
I want to ask him—while we were working honestly and trying to reach you, did you even pick up one call in six months?
On 11 December 2025, my sibling messaged Sachin again on WhatsApp about our money. After that, Ms. Shweta Chugh called and threatened to report to the Canadian High Commission that our documents were fake. This is completely false. Our documents are 100 percent genuine. She said she would do this because she already had our documents. This was said only to mentally harass and scare us. We have the call recording of this threat as well.
They also say everywhere that they were “established in 2015.” But we checked their official record on the Ministry of Corporate Affairs website. They were actually registered in 2017 as KARKS FOODS PRIVATE LIMITED. They only changed their name to Province Immigration Pvt. Ltd. in 2020. They added immigration services officially only in 2020.
So why are they lying about working since 2015 or even 2012, as Shweta claimed? Sachin said, “So what if we wrote 2015?” My question is—did you start scamming people from the moment you were born?
Their awards are not real—they are paid promotions. The job assistance they promised was never provided. Prateek Motwani, a theatre artist, was introduced to us as their Sales Manager. Navdeep used the fake name Prabhjot and misled us. Sachin Kumar has no public social media—not even LinkedIn. We paid from a personal loan and are still paying EMIs. They never showed any care or responsibility.
We have all the proof—the fake PR assessment report, invoice, credit note, emails, WhatsApp chats, call recordings of Prateek admitting his mistake, Shweta’s threats, Sachin’s mocking, all IELTS class records, and MCA documents showing the company’s real background.
Please verify any company’s registration on the MCA website before trusting them. Don’t believe verbal promises, celebrity photos, or polite sales calls that disappear once the money is paid.
This is not a real immigration consultancy. This is a group of people who lie, cheat, emotionally pressure clients, and disappear after taking money.
I have been asking for my refund since the very first day. It has now been almost two years. My hard-earned money is still stuck with them.
We do not want revenge. We just want justice and our money back. And we want to make sure no one else has to suffer the way we did.
This is not just about money. This is about dignity, trust, and basic human honesty. They robbed us of all three.
