Streamline your visa eligibility process with our powerful n8n workflow. Effortlessly extract, validate, and automate document handling with state-of-the-art AI and seamless integration. Say goodbye to manual data entry and complex visa checklist management.

What this workflow does

• Receive applicant information: Capture visa eligibility requests via a webhook POST, including the applicant’s details, travel plans, and raw passport OCR text.
• Data extraction and validation: Deploy Anthropic Claude to efficiently extract and verify essential passport information such as name, nationality, passport number, and expiry date. It also scores the readability of the passport text.
• Iterative data enhancement: If the passport data is unclear, it immediately prompts the user to provide a clearer scan.
• Visa requirement analysis: Once validated, Anthropic Claude assesses visa necessity, categorizes the visa type, and considers processing time, potential risks, and confidence levels.
• Document checklist creation: Constructs a tailored document checklist by merging a standard list with purpose-specific items and AI-flagged potential eligibility risks.
• Checklist PDF generation: Converts the HTML-based checklist to a PDF using PDFShift, ensuring a professional and accessible format.
• Record keeping and communication: Logs each application request in Google Sheets and sends the completed PDF checklist to the applicant via SendGrid, accompanied by a comprehensive assessment in JSON format.
