| Congrats. How did the process start? Did you move to Canada on a temporary working visa first or something like that? |

no :)
2003-2007 - student visa
2007-now - post graduate work permit
applied the first time in April 2008 under skilled worker class, reapplied again in November 2008 under the new Canadian Experienced class, and that went through super quickly! |

| Thanks. I'd be tempted to look into moving there for work temporarily for around a year. |

yesterday on the boarder, I felt so illegal, like some Mexican or something :) |
ah man. Why it gotta be Mexican for? :p the Mexi's here are legit.
"...like some Chinese container person" would've been more accurate ;)
Congrats Kristina!! |

I've got a couple of years to my PR since it's been an cycle of turn around evernts with the wrong lawyers.
You were on a student visa here? , you must be driving a Mercedes C class as well :toocool:
Congradulations, the feeling must be nothing other than excitement. I will have identical approach when I receive my PR. |

lol!! :) I'm not loaded, well not really :) my parents just saved up enough over years to send me here
lawyers just suck the money out of you! you hardly need them - I mean, you avoid all the paperwork, but when you do it all yourself, you know where and when things are getting send and all
tbh, I was much more excited when I sent my initial application :) I think the excitement peaked when I received the request for the medical :D I was jumping up and down like Tigr from Winnie the Pooh :) |

I get the joy of going through all of this over the next year.. I will be making the big move to our lovely neighbours to the south of us.
It is all pretty daunting but I plan to try and handle much of the paper work myself...
I never thought I would be an immigrant.. it feels weird to wrap my head around. lol |

haha yeah it can be a bit tedious.. paperwork is the worst.. getting all needed supporting documents is also a pain
what do you need to apply for the status over there? is the process somewhat similar? |
