Another stage completed... and onto the next...

Thanks everyone - although must confess we are looking at alternatives. This summer was really our cut off date for being in Canada. Next summer we could do at a push. Then it becomes difficult due to our age and because where the kids will be in their education.

We are still leaving the application to run, but are no longer putting our lives on hold. We are looking in the UK and if we find somewhere we like, we will buy there and wait - if / when we get visas we will go if it still seems right, but if we have found somewhere and are content, then perhaps it wasn't meant to be.

[QUOTE=Kaye5;9416692]We have AOR, dated 2 June 2011.

Funnily enough, I thought I would be mega-excited, but the thought of the 2 year wait.....

Oddly, the letter still quotes 12 months with the request to contact them at 8 months if nothing heard.

Great news Kaye5.....some progress for you at last!

You really should start another thread (I think another poster advised you this earlier). This thread (although I admit it doesn't say it, so may be confusing) refers to Federal Skilled Worker applications - therefore the times quoted in the posts are only for this stream.

If you start a new thread of your own, relating to parental sponsorship, you'll get info specific to your situation.

This thread is totally irrelevant to you as it's a different stream.

Congratulations! It always seems to be the same pattern, once one person gets one, a load more follow, so good luck for everyone else on this timeline.
