Hi,
Can someone please advise. We have just returned from Alberta, on a fact finding trip and we bought a house. The final bits of paper are going through now.
Should we tell Immigration we have purchased?
Does it go against you? i.e Immigration isn't garanteed
We are a little worried what to do next. It was a dream come true! we couldn't let this one go
Please advise

Do realise that buying a property doesn't really guarantee you PR, having a family here will probably get you more brownie points.
Good on you though, you seem to have taken a stepping stone into moving here.
