Agree.

HOWEVER, before Babyblue can try and take herself to this place of serenity, she really HAS to find out whether this potential job offer is real or not. I get the impression it could just be a piece of pie in the sky coupled with wishful thinking.

I would definately go back to England and be with my kids, they are family and more important and would you be happy in Canada without them? I know I wouldn't.

I'm sure there are loads of families in England that would love to have someone with your skills work for them.

Good luck with whatever you decide.

Oh BB,
I can't give you any advice but my heart goes out to you, do what you think is right, talk to everybody involved and then take some time out for yourself and consider what you want for yourself and your kids, ie: could you be a long distance Mum if they choose to stay in the UK.

Take care hun,

Rosie

My two cents worth. You must just about be qualifying for citizenship by now. Find out about the job. Talk to the woman herself. See what she says about sponsoring you and see if you think that she is telling the truth. If she works for Immigration - ask her all the hard questions.

If you think it will work, then I would stay on here - get your Citizenship and then you have a lot more choices. You will have dual nationality and that would give you the option of living in England or Canada.

I can't remember where you said how much longer you needed to stay - but it can't be very long.

I don't know the full story but I think BabyBlue is on a Work permit (hence the need to be sponsored? ) If this is the case, citizenship is out of the question.

Oh - I thought I had seen somewhere in a past post - ages ago - about how she didn't want to have to go home because she nearly qualified for something or other - and I thought it was citizenship.
