Iris vs IMMeFile

Three things we can stand behind: Quebec selection tracked as real case data rather than notes, study-abroad admissions on the same client record as the immigration file, and a product built and used by a licensed RCIC in daily practice. On everything else — clients, cases, documents, deadlines, retainers — assume parity and evaluate both on how they feel to use.

We do not quote IMMeFile’s pricing on this page. Vendor plans change, and a stale comparison table is worse than no table at all — read their plans from their own site, and ours from the pricing section at withiris.ca. For a sense of the market: VisaNauta publishes a flat $59–$279/month band with no commission on client fees, which is the only published range we can point to without guessing. In practice this decision comes down to fit rather than a large price gap.

Because we would have to guess, and a guess dressed up as a comparison table is how buyers get misled. We publish what we can verify from vendors' own public materials and what we can say about ourselves. For IMMeFile's current features, plans and trial terms, read them from IMMeFile.

CICC compliance is the price of entry in this category, not a selling point — IMMeFile is built around it and so is Iris, and we are not going to pretend we invented record keeping. Iris writes a full activity trail on every case, carries a projected destruction date on closed files so retention is visible rather than remembered, and can export a complete file when the regulator asks for one. We build compliance to parity and compete on Quebec and on admissions instead.
