Re: IEC 2015
Has everyone here sorted their forms etc independently, or has anyone had assistance from an organization with their application? I'm just wondering if going through someone like BUNAC might be worth it, for the sake of being sure all documents are in order and having some contacts on arrival to help with work etc?

Absolutely don't waste your money on those organisations. You'll have more luck finding work yourself, direct with a company or through an agency. The documents for IEC are the easiest to fill out, any questions you have either ask here or elsewhere for free and you'll get the answer ten times quicker.
I've seen quite a few mentions of signed photographs and police checks on these forums though?
Does the first come first served concept of submitting literally come down to sitting at the computer waiting to click submit when the clocks strikes 12?
Apologies if these are all very basic questions, feel free to tell me to find out elsewhere.

Valid points on both sides. But yes. Maybe a topic for a different thread. One I would definitely find interesting to explore though.

Re: IEC 2015
I'm a little lost as to how prepared it's possible to be at this point. The IEC guide on the Canadian gov website only seems to mention that you need to check that your passport is valid, and that you have a resume that is in the format they outline on the website.

Ah ok. That's one of the things that made me think it might be good to apply through BUNAC or someone similar. I'd imagine they have some kind of automated system to apply as quickly as possible once the doors open. I'm assuming they fill up very quickly?

The only thing BUNAC can assist with is finding work, group flights and helping you set up your SIN, bank account etc - all thinbgs you can do yourself without spending hundreds and hundreds on.

BUNAC will not get you the visa, they no longer get any of the visas assigned to them (previous to 2011 they did).

Guys just to stop me from banging my head off the wall
When we apply very first stage, I dont remember uploading anything, someone mentioned a resume, is this not after once we get a CAL. I used to have lots of screenshots taken on my phone, but I lost it
Also I was going to get my PoliceCert sent off today, Dentist went back to Ireland for the Christmas and New Year this morning. So that's not happening.
Is it just us they need basically there is no uploading just to open it and complete kompass account on the day, is it after we have CAL is it then they need these documents ?
Thanks alot

Re: IEC 2015
I can't find anybody in the UK to sign my police certificate. Should I send it to a friend abroad to sign it?
