Daughter is a UK nurse is it best to sponsor her
Looking for some advise on the the best and quickest way to get my Daughter and Fiance over to Canada to live.
We have had PR cards since 2014 but have only lived in Canada since 2017. Waiting for house sale and family issues prolonged our move. Our dughter had a PR card but had to give it up as she wanted to finish her nursing qualification back in the UK and she did not meet the 730 days resident status. After doing a lot of research i see things have changed a lot since we originally applied. Is it best to go down the route of us sponsoring her as she is our daughter? not sure if her fiance could picky back of that application though. I also see now there is an EE status but from what I have read this takes time and now have to have your name drawn out of a pop. She realises that she will have to go back to school before she can practise nursing in BC, to get her nursing licence and also get her qualification authorised by BCCNM Why do kids always think they know best 😩 she still has to come and go back to school. Age 23 Any help would be regretfully received as I do not want to go down the route of a consultant if I can help it as I know they are very expensive. This community is great and helps lots of people out with their information and knowledge King regards and thanks |
Re: Daughter is a UK nurse is it best to sponsor her
Unfortunately you’re not able to sponsor her.
So she’ll need to look at what other visa options she’s eligible for. EE is the most common way to apply for PR, it doesn’t take long at all (around 6 months usually, maybe a bit more now with the Covid backlog). And it’s not a case of having your name picked, it’s that those with the highest points are selected and invited to apply for PR. So it will depend on her points score - get her and her fiancé to check in case he scores more than her. Has she formally renounced her PR status? Does it have to be BC she moves to or would she look at other provinces? Lastly, what does her fiancé do? It would probably be a good idea to ask her to join BE so that we can help her work out what she’s eligible for. |

Thanks for the advise, for some reason I thought the child sponsorship had been moved to 24 my mistake, it's 22. Wish she had made the desision last year.
Her partner is only a construction labour so she will have to be the main applicant. She wants to come to BC to live with us so she is not looking at living anywhere else in Canada. So funny how the country is so despatate for qualified nurses yet they have them bend over backwards before they can practice. I'll have a look at the EE route and hope that she can get here, this year. She did think about maybe applying for a working visa and then while she was here, apply for her PR but I think that might take just as long. think I/ she will have to do a lot more research. Can't believe how the system has changed in the last 7 years. thanks |

Hi
1. You should note that there has not been a Skilled Worker draw in over a year for Express Entry. OP, get your daughter to check she meets the Federal Skilled Worker criteria, and then check her CRS score. An IEC may be a good option as back up, depending on her score. Just checking, but has she lived with her fiancé for a year or more? If not, they'll need to be married if she wants him to go on her visa app. |

Have a look at the BC PNP Healthcare programme. It’s specifically for healthcare workers, including nurses.

Not sure she’ll have enough work experience to qualify from what the OP’s said, but EE would be much quicker & easier if she’s eligible. So personally I’d check that first and then explore other options if it’s a no go.

If not, they'll need to be married if she wants him to go on her visa app. sorry for the late reply Covid hit out family and blue screens was a no for me for awhile, yes she does meet the skilled worker criteria so I will get her to check her scores, but I heard that they haven't given invitations out of the pool for a long while. She has been with her fiance for 3 years now and yes he will have to be on her visa app as he's just works for a general house maintenance company, so no degree. I was thinking IEC might be a quicker option and then when they are here apply for PR thanks for the info |
