Re: IEC 2015

Godspeed, boys. Looks like I'm out of this one. Won't stop me applying and until I'm 100% rejected I have no intention of giving up!

Re: IEC 2015

Feeling the same way kswoosh. I'm in the same boat of having participated twice, once pre-2011. Who knows if they'll clarify it further, but at this point I'm applying regardless.

Re: IEC 2015

So, much like you I went through an organisation before 2011 and then with IEC after 2011. I have always been told that because I went prior to 2011 and there was a big change in the rules that year,...

Re: IEC 2015

Yep- take the positives. We also know now that they will be announcing the dates in advance. Today is a day of good news and bad news. Hang in there!

Re: IEC 2015

I think the greyest of the grey areas is the time limit between being issued a CAL and submitting documents (police checks, application form etc).

For me personally, I have sent off for a police...

Re: IEC 2015

Just going to reply to my own question in case anyone has similar concerns-- this is from the CIC website on Medicals:

You will need a medical exam if you:

Re: IEC 2015

It'll be after the initial Kompass application process. Either in the 15 day document-gathering window or something they check you've done at the border. This page shows you all the approved doctors...

Re: Allowed to Leave Canada form Qs

Thanks- that's pretty much what I figured.

I have a follow-up question:

I am going to try to apply for an IEC visa for 2015. Do you think my Allowed to Leave Canada issuance will negatively...

Hi all,

Re: Getting ready for IEC 2014

Has anyone heard anything re: changes to the length of IEC visas? I've read a couple of times on forums and such that it's possible CIC is looking at changing IECs to 2 years, instead of the usual...

Re: A tale of dumbassery and deportation

I was lucky not to get officially deported. The Canadian border official seemed to have a soft spot for me, even if it didn't feel like it at the time. The flip side to being given a chance to book...

A tale of dumbassery and deportation

Hi expats!

I've written a few times on the forum about how I could go about staying in Canada longer, coming to terms with going back to the UK after two years, and such things. Well, here's a...

Re: My expiring work-permit and the BC dream

That's really great news, thankyou!

I haven't found anything referencing the 18 months of 3 years thing, perhaps that's later in the application (hopefully not a requirement at all!)

Re: My expiring work-permit and the BC dream

Wow thanks so much for the helpful response! I'm excited to hear that it's actually two IEC visas back-to-back that would count me out? My first one was with BUNAC, you're right. Does that mean I can...

Hello all :),

I've been in Canada since September 2010. I'm 24, work at Scotiabank, and have just a couple of months ago split up with my long-term girlfriend. We had flimsy plans in place to...

Re: Life decisions and staying in Canada. Help requested!

Another option I looked at was leaving when my visa's up, re-applying through BUNAC and coming back once that all came through... is that what you mean? I wasn't aware I could get one "for when mine...
