I am so saddened by some of the defeatist comments here. I think that 50% of you should give up your dreams and withdraw since you already believe you will fail. I cannot say why someone couldn't find a job. It's not just your Indian experience, it's your resume and ability to secure and deal...

Amitsmeet, I'm sorry but your comments are false and misleading. Some professions like Doctors have a hard time getting accreditation, but for people in Finance, degrees in accountancy can lop up to three years of a Certified General Accounting course here and be useful in job searches. Just...

Anil_India, Of course you should stay in touch and maybe become lifelong friends, but it is important that you adapt and you won't do this in a tightly knit group, sharing apartments, watching Bollywood movies and cooking Indian food. I think an earlier poster mentioned liking "smashed" he...

Perhaps this may be of help: Your first item of business should be to get a social insurance number. You take your passport and landing documents to a "Service Canada" office. You can download an application form but it's not necessary unless you prefer to apply by mail. You should also open...

A disappointing week for everyone. I think a short pause to regroup and remember that the prize is within reach. It's not relevant, but I'd like to think that this little video would bring a bit of cheer and some excitment of things to come. Please enjoy...

You are welcome - honestly! http://www.thestar.com/opinion/editorialopinion/article/1058294--toronto-s-lessons-on-immigration

Now don't you think there is SOME possibility that when new rules are applied retroactively in Jan 2013, they may just "honor" us by shifting our applications to the "pool" and from that, only few lucky ones would be selected and remaining automatically disposed off. Thus everything would be...

I felt very encouraged to read that Kenney wants all the backlog cleared by December. But I can't find any official news/statement which quotes him saying that. Please provide any link for that. Off the top of my head I can't remember the actual source but I will work on it and get back to you...

Hi Mogboy, This post of urs was really a soothner Reading it excites me to know ur story, whr u hail from, hw u came to Canada nd whts ur story now Thanks for the kind words. Now I'm retired and waiting patiently to die. LOL About the two videos posted above. I confess I only watched a couple...

I was saddened to read the experiences of Anurag upon arrival in Canada. I'm not going to tell you it's easy because his experiences are valid and real. Maybe I can offer some suggestions. - Visit the YMCA. They have free programs specifically designed to help immigrants get their...

Great idea GoCunnaeda! May I just add my personal congratulations to all of you since it would appear you are all going to be here very soon. Welcome to Canada!!

This extract from a recent article may be of encouragement to Lubob and other doctors hoping to practice here. “Given that approximately 38 per cent of Canada’s physicians were aged 55 or older in 2010, the number of physicians needed to replace those who leave the workforce is likely to rise...

Lubob, Don't apologize, I completely understand your frustration and I wish I could give you some positive news. I wish you every happiness in Canada and feel sure that you will make it just fine. Your children will have great opportunities here.

Lubob please understand that I fully appreciate the level of frustration that you must be feeling and I cannot defend this government for its sheer incompetence, dumb policies and lack of foresight about the numbers of applicants it would have to deal with. The three streams, the letting the...

This is a rather foolish comment. Mr. Kenny has no access to the funds and processing is going ahead normally. The general consensus appears to be that the pre-juners will start getting M/R's in July. The Canadian government is many things including incompetent, but it is not corrupt and doesn't...

Hi, Just a few reasons why I would pick Toronto as my destination. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mFAWmH12Ivo&feature=related

Just went to check on the ecas client application status site and it's not working. Anyone have an ideas as to why?

Anil-India. Your chart it is a work of art! I look at all those "real in process" applications with their lines of stars and I imagine a huge river building behind a dam that is about to burst in a flood of medical / passport requests. I hope I'm right.

I really have no inside knowledge but I don't agree that the delay in issuing medicals is increasing the backlog in the long term. They could have completed files in dribs and drabs or reviewed all of them to see what they end up with and then issue the medicals and PPR's in a flood. Either way...

Since other VO's are issuing medicals I think it's only a matter of time before a flood of them come out of Delhi, but I have no inside information and cannot really be sure. It would seem logical. Delhi is processing files, but stockpiling them for reasons unknown, just holding off on the final...
