IEC Invite
Hi! I'm looking for any expert knowledge and input into our situation and the options we have, and possibly any insight and guesswork into how immigration applications are currently getting processed.
As the title suggests, my husband has been invited to apply for an IEC work permit (working holiday visa). We have 3 weeks to submit the application for this. We are also stuck somewhere in the process of our EE/PR/FSW being reviewed (submitted feb-2021). The PR application was actually recently updated (23/03/22) that they had reviewed our medical checks, which had finally reignited some belief that that was being processed! Our questions now are: Do we go through getting all of the documentation for the IEC for one of us, with the hope it will get us both out to Canada sooner? Will it interfere with our PR application at all? Does our medical checks being reviewed suggest the rest of the PR will soon be completed? What supporting documents are needed for IEC- will some of it be duplicates that we've already submitted once for PR eg. police checks? What is the estimated cost of acquiring the IEC visa? We have to figure out if this is work the extra costs given that we could be granted COPR at any point. How do we get the second person to join out in Canada with one person holding an IEC visa? Any info or advice is welcome! |

1. Only your spouse was invited to apply for IEC, you could accompany as a visitor.
OP - no, it won't interfere with your PR app at all. Personally I'd be inclined to decline the IEC and let somebody else who really wants it and doesn't have another option have it. It sounds like it won't be too long until you get PR anyway. Good luck. |
