Although migrating is an easier choice, it still involves a lot of paperwork and documentation -- something not everyone is good at. To remedy this, there are a few who choose to hire representatives to do all of this for them. But then, you have to cash out a huge sum of money to pay a person or group of people to do something that you can do for yourself (if you have the patience to do it). And there's also the problem of crooked immigration consultants who are only after your money and then disappear faster than a wink of an eye.
Many countries, especially those who are relying in immigrants to fuel their economy, have made the immigrating process easier for those who are interested. So if you're planning to do such a thing, it's better to do your homework first before deciding to hire a representative.
Most countries have a scoring system to determine whether a candidate is eligible for immigration or not. If you think that you are not going to pass the score, it is not wise to create falsified documents from desperation. Many illegal representatives do this and you should know that you are only wasting your time, money and more importantly, you will be tarnishing your reputation. Immigration officers are not very kind and forgiving for such actions so better think twice or even thrice on the subject.
