Sure, I don't mind you asking. We had 82 points. My wife and I both have post-graduate degrees, a number of years of work experience in our respective careers...
Thanks. We're slowly getting used to the idea as it took 9 months to receive a decision. May be it's shock, it will hit us soon I'm sure:- ) But we're very...
Congratulations. We know what a "weight off" it is. We still have the hurdle of an Alberta driving test to face when we eventually land. Everyone should be...
Hi Guys Sounds like everything is going swimingly for many of us preparing to leap across the pond and into a new life, home, car, fashion regime, etc...so I...
Hi This most likely does not help at all, but since you asked.... As a 'Paul' from this group, my points were made up from having an aunt & uncle in Canada,...
The 12 months from the date of the medicals is very much built into the plan:-) We have 90 days to take the medical so theoretically we could take these in May...
