Default GOT PERMANENT RESIDENCE VISA BUT NO HOUSE SALE !!!! NEED ADVICE ON ACTIVATION TIME SC

Hi Evereyone !! ,

I need some advice on activation timescales on our Permanent Residence Visa for Canada. Is says on the Visas that the have to be activated by Aug 2008. The problem is we are struggling to sell our house in the UK and I feel I need to have a plan B incase our house is not sold within that timeline. Can we go to Canada for a 1 week holiday in July and activate it then ?? Once it is activated do we have a certain period of time before me have to go and live ther ?? PLEASE HELP

FRUSTRATED Nick

Can't answer your question sorry as this is the Australian forum.
Try asking on the Canadian forum, I'm sure someone can help you out there.
