Immigration Analytics, Benchmarking and Knowledge

Understand immigration in a changing world.

The immigration environment worldwide is uncertain and, in many respects, in a state of flux.

Government enforcement is increasing, and regulations and policies are changing at lightning speed. At times, it can seem like a full-time job just to keep up—especially as the world continues to adjust to our complicated pandemic landscape.

We agree.

Fragomen has dedicated a group of professionals around the world who are solely devoted to monitoring and advising on legislative and regulatory changes in immigration. We harness this intelligence to provide a range of knowledge services to help you understand immigration in our changing world.

Here’s how:

The latest immigration knowledge at your fingertips.

We empower our clients by providing them with current information and insights.

We’ve developed a range of dynamic immigration tools and resources, updated daily to help support your decision making, including:

      • Worldwide Immigration Trends reports
      • Over 600 immigration alerts and updates a year
      • Insights and perspectives
      • Our Knowledge Center, which is available to clients via our Connect case management portal

Deep dive immigration knowledge databases.

We monitor information daily and maintain comprehensive databases to produce a wealth of knowledge products for our clients, which include detailed information on immigration processes, immigration process videos, red flag issues, heat maps, processing times, and other information relevant to immigration compliance and your immigration program management.

Knowledge consulting services.

We also offer robust advisory support, including:

      •  Multi-jurisdictional information and analysis on specific topics
      • Guidance and project management for corporate restructurings and other special projects
      • Immigration policy assistance
      • Legislative, regulatory and policy analysis

These products and capabilities augment our advisory and compliance services to help educate our clients and inform their immigration programs.

The program data you need, when you need it.

Immigration is but one of many corporate functions with expectations to live up to and budgets to meet. As an immigration stakeholder, you need access to your program data and analytics as quickly as possible.

We utilize suites of analytics tools including:

      • A wide range of visualized program reporting analytics from our Connect case management portal
      • Consulting tools to complement strategic advice such as predictive analysis and risk mitigation
      • Internal workflow optimization and data integrity tools

Our analytics portfolio drives speed, accuracy and efficiency to new levels.

How does your immigration program stack up?

Savvy companies use immigration strategically to attract the talent they need in an increasingly competitive marketplace. To do so, businesses must understand how their immigration benefits compare to those of their competitors.  

Fragomen processes hundreds of thousands of immigration cases a year. This vast amount of empirical data allows us to:

      • Track, compare and report on a wide variety of factors associated with case processing and program management
      • Formulate unique insights and predict trends
      • Benchmark best practices based on the wide range of practices and procedures our clients utilize and those relevant to specific industries
      • Develop meaningful metrics that allow you to effectively monitor your immigration programs.
