Re: Skilled Worker Class Timeline from UK
Evening All
We applied in August 2004 through Four Corners, December 2006 we had a 90letter advising us to re-submit documents by the 15th February. We received a letter on the 21st May asking us to go for our meds, these are now booked in for 3rd July. Four Corners advised that visa's can then take 12-20 weeks to process... we could be there for Christmas

Re: Skilled Worker Class Timeline from UK
Just want to put some news in everyones day. I came to Canada 30 years ago and it wasn't easy then. I must say it didn't take more than 6 months to get everything in order. The work is in Manitoba you may have to start at a ground level position it's worth a try. The West Coast are screaming for people in the trades. They can't find people at all some people are coming from Newfoundland because there is no work there. I am in the process of helping a cousin get in age is a factor right now he is 46 so he is at the border line age wise.
Anyway just wanted to pass on a little info to you

Re: Skilled Worker Class Timeline from UK
well as yous know I just lost the plot last week and we ended things with our immigration lot so we have been checking things out for ourselves and going down family sponsoring route seems to be our best option and its faster.I cant afford to head bang Im daft enough with all this waiting and being messed around with consultants telling us we will go where they tell us crap.if the family sponsoring falls flat then its time to give up and settle where we are enough is enough for me)

Hi Kate
Do you have family in Canada? Depending on how you are related, depends on how you can get in to Canada. The best way is to get a job sponsor. Also it seems like the Canadian Immigration will let everyone but us British in. It makes me so angry. Going through these agency seems a joke also. My cousin was telling me all about those. Well good luck keep trying...................
