Thats really quick...so pleased for you.

Did it cost you much more to get in via PNP ........we have looked at this for Nova Scotia but I seem to remember it would have been an extra CND$5000

well done you!!!
 

well done you! That was quick? Just wondered if you could help me. I am in the process of gathering all my documents.

Could you please help with these three questions?

Where did you go to get all your photocopies certified and how much did it cost?

If I am the principle applicant do I have to prove my husbands work experince?

Also my husband did military service in Italy over 10 years ago do I need to put this down?

Many thanks and keep posting to see how you get on.

Why did you chose Canada out of interest?

Hi ACL
Thanks.

No extra cost with PNP to Saskatchewan and I would be surprised
if Nova Scotia, or any other province for that matter charged you anything as it is them that need your skills !

cheers Goatee

Re: well done you!!!
 

hi travelmad
and Thanks
1)at a notary pubic ( a type of solictor ) at a cost of £100.
Ring a local solictor and ask if they have one if not they will know of one.

2)Yes , provide as much information as you can so that they don't have to ask you for anything more which would slow things down

3) not sure , I have no experience of this.

4) the list is endless but some
speaking English
a far better standard of living
lots of work in my trade
and the list go's on

paperwork for partner too?
 

Hi Goatee

thanks for your replies. Can I just confirm that you provided lots of paperwork for your partner too?

Also on the NOC list can you provide different numbers to cover the work experience you have had?

Eg I was a bookeeper and now an accountant so there are two numbers which cover my expereince.

Are you selling property in the UK?
Thanks for your help

Re: paperwork for partner too?
 

Hi Travelmad

thanks goatee!!!
when do you go?

I have read that the processing fee for Nova scotia Nominee Programme is CDN$5500 on

http://www.coxhanson.ca/pubs_solutions.asp?cmPageID=327

So envious of you !!!

Well done and when do you hope to move out there? How did you apply for PNP?? How long did it take to process and how long did you have to wait to hear whether you had got a place on their PNP programme? Did you have to go for an interview??

Sorry for all the questions but its hard to find many people who have got into Canada as provincial nominee!!

We hope to be going late Feb/early March

Goatee

Hi ACL
1)late Feb / early March
2)phoned them in Saskatchewan and got the forms from the internet site.Filled in all forms including the federal ones and took them with us on our holiday back in July (see time line in pre;post) had informal interview in Sask to check thro' paper work.
3)see time line

any questions, don't hesitate to ask
Goatee

ps that $5000 is because they want to make money out of you.
I would always go it alone ie.don't use an immigration solicitor

:beer:

I hope you have a good winter Parka.
At the moment it's -27c
Should be down to around -5c by the time you arrive.

Hiya - congratulations my son! We're off to Winnipeg on a Manitoba PNP end of March - we'll be neighbours then (provincially speaking! ;) )
