Dear Ladies and Gentlemen;
This blogs sound informative especially for the new comer. I would like to ask all of you guys on much time to wait for a Permanent Immigrant Visa...say you would just apply it now. I am confident that I can provide the entire requirement by Nova Scotia. If luckily that I was able to get an approved assessment and pass the medical examination; how long it will take to wait for immigrant Visa.

Please note that I am a medical provider and my occupation is currently on Canada list 38 of in demand jobs. 

My fellow Filipinos (Nursing; Medical Practitioners; Doctors) please share your experiences. How long have you wait to get an immigrant Visa....1year, 2years,
Thank you very much.
