    When our son was about 3 months old, we got a medical for him. So, yes, you need a medical :)

    Medicals

    OK, thanks, makes sense. It was for a wedding and a nephew being born, so only an 8 week delay. However, it took my PR 6 months to turn up, so was hoping it was a possibility, never mind! Thanks for the reply.

    Why move from AU (Sydney) to CA ( Toronto)

    For my wife and I, the cost of living is better than NZ, I am sure there are many that will disagree, but we have done spreadsheets and reviewed our spending. In Canada, we will be better off. I can't speak for Aussie, but in NZ, property is stupidly priced in centres like Auckland, reportedly...

    Sponsor living outside canada

    You can also include letters from friends and family that are in Canada and that they are willing to assist you in your re-establishment in Canada. This is what my wife has done on her application to sponsor me over. We both live in NZ, she is the Canadian.
