    Is this possible?

    Does anyone know how long I can remain in the UK after I have landed? I understand that I can only be outside of Canada for 2 yrs out of 5, but when does this rule kick in? I am only going to Canada for 2 weeks as a reccee trip and to land. Can I stay in the UK until after me and my fiance...

    How to get a job in an unstable climate?

    Is it better to job search after you've landed or before?? I've applied for 50 jobs and haven't heard anything back from any of the companies, not even an acknowledgement despite advising them that I have a PR visa. What more can you do?? I am very well qualified, but this doesn't seem to...

    Sponsoring parents

    My brother who has PR status and is married to a Canadian is going to sponsor our parents to come to Canada. What is the current processing time for PRs sponsoring their parents?

    Is this possible?

    Hi everyone, Since the CHC in London hasn't been able to answer what I feel to be a very straightforward question, I was hoping one of you might be able to tell me. I have recently received my PR visa but have until 12th Jan 2010 to land. My fiance and I would like to visit Canada for 2 weeks...
