The document chase

Chasing documents quietly costs you binds

Every incomplete file is admin time you cannot bill and a quote you cannot place on time.

Functional

Incomplete police certificates, scattered files across email/WhatsApp/Drive, missing employer letters found after ITA, no single status view per client file.

Emotional

Embarrassed asking clients a third time, client thinks you are disorganized, anxiety before CICC complaint, fear of refused application because IRCC does not chase missing docs.

Financial

Admin steals time from billable consults, 60-day ITA windows create overtime crises, paying coordinators for avoidable chase work.

How it works

How do RCICs collect client immigration documents?

Five steps: build a checklist, open a client file, share with client on my-id.ca, track gaps with approve/reject, and export an audit-ready package.

01

Pick or build a template

Create a reusable checklist for Express Entry, spousal, study permit, or a custom program (user-built; prebuilt RCIC program templates in app — coming soon).

02

Open a client file

Attach the checklist to the client record your team manages in Hivi-X.

03

Share with client

Share the checklist; client receives an email and can upload via a secure guest link (no account needed — they verify email with a one-time code) or sign in to the my-id.ca portal. Your team can also add files as they arrive.

04

Track the gaps

See completed vs outstanding items; approve or reject each client upload; client can resubmit after rejection.

05

Export the package

Generate an audit-ready PDF client-file package for CICC records and IRCC submission prep.

CICC & client-file compliance

Structured intake for CICC client files

CICC requires RCICs to maintain agreements, supporting documents, correspondence, billing, drafts, and submitted applications for at least six years after closure. Disorganized intake contributes to conduct complaints — 1,211 new CICC conduct cases in 2024–25.

Hivi-X does not replace your immigration CRM, log WhatsApp messages, or handle trust accounting. It helps your team collect, organize, and export supporting documents for the client file you already must maintain.

FAQ

RCIC questions, answered

Commonly identity documents, language test results, an Educational Credential Assessment (if applicable), police certificates, employment reference letters, proof of funds, digital photos, medical exam (when required), certified translations, and completed IRCC forms — exact items vary by program and profile. Hivi-X provides reusable checklists so RCICs track each item instead of scrolling email threads. Verify requirements against current IRCC guidance.

Avoid unencrypted email for passports and police certificates. Hivi-X provides an encrypted, Canadian-hosted client portal on my-id.ca with checklist tracking so documents stay in one RCIC-controlled file with item-level review.

Yes. Immigration CRMs track cases, deadlines, and IRCC correspondence. Hivi-X is a document-collection layer — reusable checklists, client uploads, missing-item tracking, and file QC before submission. Most RCICs use both.

No. RCICs still file in the IRCC representative portal. Hivi-X prepares the document package and helps your team track completeness — it does not integrate with IRCC systems or e-file applications.

No account is required. When you share a checklist, Hivi-X emails a secure link. Clients can upload via a secure guest link — they verify email with a one-time code and access a branded temporary cabinet — or sign in to the free my-id.ca portal. The upload experience is mobile-friendly from any phone.

Hivi-X helps organize supporting documents and intake records in one encrypted Canadian-hosted location. It does not replace your obligation to log all communications, maintain trust accounts, or meet every Client File Management Regulation requirement on its own.

On servers hosted in Canada. AI processing uses infrastructure Hivi-X operates — client data is not sent to OpenAI, Google, Anthropic, or other third-party AI providers. Sensitive fields use AES-256-GCM at rest; traffic uses TLS.

No. Clients upload via the my-id.ca portal; you still log WhatsApp and SMS separately for CICC communication records. Hivi-X supports consultation notes via voice + AI summary on the checklist.

Yes. Hivi-X works in the browser on desktop and mobile. Clients open upload links on their phones after logging into my-id.ca. Your team can review and approve from any device.

$39 CAD/month (Starter), $59/month (Professional), or $99/month (Enterprise). All plans include a free trial, reusable templates, Canadian hosting, and self-hosted AI. Less than one hour of coordinator time per month.
