FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

How Live Compass works

Live Compass is designed to help you narrow a very large world into destinations that are worth investigating — beginning with whether you can legally live there.

Start with the legal question. Then explore the life.

Live Compass screens immigration and residence pathways first, using the circumstances you provide. Once a destination clears that layer, the recommendation can move toward practical questions such as climate, language, healthcare, taxes, housing and eventually local exploration through PisoLive.

What does a Live Compass recommendation mean?

A recommendation means the destination appears worth investigating based on the legal routes we have modeled and the answers you supplied. It is a screening result, not an immigration decision, visa approval or guarantee of eligibility.

What does the fit score mean?

The score helps rank destinations that remain viable for your circumstances. Legal feasibility comes first; preference factors then help order the viable results. A higher score means a stronger match to the information you provided — not that a country is objectively “better.”

Why does my own country show 100/100?

If you already hold citizenship of a destination, Live Compass treats the immigration barrier as completely cleared. You do not need a visa or residence pathway to live in your own country, so the citizenship result is shown as 100/100 and the portal can move directly toward local exploration.

What if I have more than one citizenship?

Add every citizenship you actually hold. Live Compass checks those rights before it evaluates ordinary visa routes, because an existing citizenship or regional mobility right can completely change the answer.

Why do you ask about my spouse, partner, children or other dependents?

Family composition can change immigration eligibility, income thresholds, dependent status and work rights. Live Compass asks only for family details that can materially change the legal screening result.

Why do you ask about income, pensions, job offers or investment funds?

Many residence categories have exact financial or employment requirements. Those questions allow Live Compass to distinguish between a route that merely exists and one that actually appears compatible with the facts you supplied.

How does the language question affect my results?

If you are willing to learn an additional language, language does not restrict the destination list. If you are not willing to learn another language, Live Compass limits recommendations to destinations whose language profile overlaps with at least one language you already speak.

What is Second Citizenship Discovery?

It looks for citizenship possibilities that may already exist through ancestry, family connections or residence-based pathways. These are research leads rather than citizenship determinations, because eligibility can depend on detailed facts and documentary history.

What does “No modeled route” mean?

It does not mean immigration is legally impossible. It means Live Compass does not currently have a sufficiently verified route matching your circumstances to clear that destination. We would rather show no route than invent one or imply eligibility that has not been established.

Where does the immigration information come from?

Live Compass is built official-source first. Routes are researched from immigration authorities, government ministries, legislation, treaty systems and other primary public authorities wherever possible. Country detail pages expose the sources behind the modeled rules so you can inspect them yourself.

Can immigration rules change after I use Live Compass?

Yes. Immigration law, program availability, quotas, financial thresholds and administrative procedures can change. Live Compass monitors its source set and is designed to block uncertain pathways rather than silently assume that an old rule is still current.

Why do some countries require an extra regional step?

Most immigration systems are national, but a few routes genuinely depend on a province, state, territory or other subnational authority. Live Compass adds that extra gate only when the law actually requires it; it does not invent regional immigration rules where none exist.

What happens after a country clears the immigration screen?

That is where PisoLive takes over. Live Compass answers the question “Can I realistically get there?” PisoLive is intended to help answer “Where in that country would daily life work best for me?” through city, neighborhood, address and nearby-living information.

Do you save the personal information I enter?

No profiling information from this intake is stored beyond the browser session. Your answers are used to generate the recommendations you see, and Live Compass does not create a stored profile of you, your family members or your future plans.

Is Live Compass legal advice?

No. Live Compass provides general information and screening assistance. It is not a law firm, does not create an attorney-client relationship, and does not replace advice from a qualified immigration lawyer, attorney or other authorized immigration professional familiar with your individual circumstances.

The more accurately the screening questions reflect your real circumstances, the more useful the shortlist becomes.
