I’ve been working with Salomi for 3-4 months now and I HIGHLY RECOMMEND IT. She has helped me open 2 licenses at this time and the process was very smooth, easy and fast. I also did my visa change with her and I’m very happy with how easy and fast it was. 10/10 for sure. & she’s available any time I speak to her and very helpful.
