I would've been lost without the guides USIT gave me to apply for my visa and work permit for Canada. The help I received from Hannah from getting my payments through to even setting my insurance up was amazing.

Excellent service, Excellent guides, and for the price was well worth it.

DO NOT USE USIT for j1

I used USIT to do my j1 last summer. As soon as I paid my full amount I could no longer get anyone on the phone and it took weeks for them to reply to any emails. I was over 2 weeks late on arriving in the USA.
DO NOT go with USIT definitely the worst company I have ever dealt with. Everyone else I spoke to about USIT had the exact same issues as I did.
DO NOT USE USIT UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES

Thank you for sharing your experience. We're very sorry to hear about the delays and communication issues you encountered during your J1 process with USIT. This is not the level of service we aim to provide, and we completely understand how frustrating it must have been—especially with the importance of timely travel for your program.

We take feedback like this seriously and are actively working to improve our response times and customer support, especially during peak seasons. We also regret that your experience reflects what others may have felt, and we’re committed to rebuilding trust and delivering better service in the future.

Thank you again for bringing this to our attention.

Fantastic service

Fantastic service! Would not have been able to get everything I needed sorted for my Australian work visa without the help of the brilliant employees of USIT. Just some of those who helped me are Adisa and Hannah. They were always readily available to communicate with regarding any concerns or general information I needed along my visa application journey. Would highly recommend going through this company to allow you peace of mind in knowing all the paperwork and essentials needed for your work visa are sorted efficiently for you.

Cristi

Cristi has been extremely helpful to deal with. I had a couple of questions regarding my visa application and Cristi helped me through every question I had. If he didn't know the answer straight away he would figure it out and then get back to me. He has made the process so stress free for me and I am very grateful for all of his help and advice!

Bergin was so helpful

Bergin was so helpful, understanding and patient when i was in the process of getting to the US. Her support and expertise made the whole application undertaking so much more manageable and less stressful for me.

Once I got over to the Chicago, I had the best time! I feel so lucky, especially after covid, that I got the opportunity to go on a J1, it’s such a rite of passage for so many Irish students. It was such a fantastic summer with my friends & I have such great memories that I’ll never forget:)

Internship Visa Process

USIT have been great during my process of attaining an internship visa. Cristi has been overly helpful and polite when dealing with any of my queries and I couldn't recommend USIT enough.

Had two experiences with a colleague of yours, Cristi, what a superstar. Super nice and accommodating for questions. He went beyond what was needed and really made me feel at ease about my visa. He’s genuinely a very helpful man. - Gary

Lyndsey was the best!!

Spoke to Lyndsey via zoom call, she was exceedingly informative about the 1 year graduate visa. Reassured me that the process was straight forward and that USIT as a company are helpful in every direction.
