My nanny in HK told me she still need to give a month termination notice to her employer. It means I still need to wait for another month after her visa stamp. Pls share your experience. How soon your nanny can come to canada? Thanks

Our nanny received her work permit approval after 5 month and 7 days. She is now submitted her passport to CIC. From what I have been told, it takes about 10 days for the visa stamp. Hope you will receive your work permit approve soon. BTW, she submitted her application on May 9.

Thank you all for your reply. My nanny submitted her visa application on May 9, and no update from CIV ever since. Lucybear, pls update me if your nanny got hers. Thanks
