We're in the same position - thinking of selling the house but not quite sure yet - we might rent it out just in case (and it's in London so probably safer here than sat in our account waiting for us to build up our Canadian credit history!).

And thank you!!! We're hoping to move to Halifax / Nova Scotia. We spent a lot of time in London so have no pull to go back to a big city! Halifax seems nice - big enough that it has everything but small enough to be able to live in a nice big house just outside. We fell in love with it when we first went there and have some friends in nearby. I can't wait now!! Just nervous something will trip us up! How about you? Have you got somewhere in mind?

And just a gentle reminder that we try to keep the threads in the immi section of the forum on topic, so if you want to discuss areas of Canada or your intended destinations, please do so via PM or a new thread in the main forum.

Thanks.

Do we need to include our families holidays we haven't been on? I'm not sure what 'if applicable' covers.

Regarding the medical review, when do we need to submit/complete these?
