Hey guys,
We have done some research for around the Vancouver area, not as much as we should have but we hadn't even been accepted but an amazing email this morning invited us to apply !! Chuffed í ½í¸í ½í¸í ½í¸í ½í¸ . Now proper time to research !
We have been interested in Ottawa aswell our intentions up to date were spending 6-12 months Vancouver and 6-12 months in Ottawa. Do you reckon it would be a better option to start off in Ottawa with more rentals available and also to get more Canadian experience while not spending as much of our initial money? ( btw we have read that Ottawa isn't anywhere near as lively as Vancouver but wanted to experience different sides to Canada Lol!)
I have checked out the websites you sent over regarding our jobs and that should be manageable to get proof of work so will have all that sorted before moving over and just a case of applying when their and hoping doesn't take too long lol thanks for that!
Scott.

Congrats on getting the invite!!
Do read up on the requirements (for both of you) to get Provincial Certification and start the process and apply now - don't wait until you move over.. it's not a quick process and much of the information you'll need to gather and submit well in advance. Don't forget that each Province has a separate governing body for regulated professions so decide which one you are most likely to move to first!
By the way, is it your intention to apply for Permanent Residency at some point? If it is then it would be to your advantage to determine which Province you are more likely to secure PR through - and permanent skilled jobs that could give you extra points.
