    How long will IRCC take to process applications?

    Sorry. I was not myself when posting this thread. Backstory: I am a full-time freelance translator, and I submitted my paperwork to IRCC this Feb.

    Can I Immigrate to Canada as Self-Employed?

    Self-Employed documents translation

    Hi guys, I found something that is not clearly defined. Hope someone could help me out. :) So for self-employed translators, like me, we also need to provide supportive documents.
