Popular Post tillylamp 1,831 Posted March 19, 2015 Popular Post Report Share Posted March 19, 2015 hi, I posted on here a while ago about immigrating to Canada. I applied for my permanent residency back in may, and, good news, I have just received them now........ yippee ....... woop woop ....... I have now got 4 months to sell everything and get myself out there or I have to re apply again, so I hope it will all go to plan, but if not I will take a trip out there just to get my papers stamped then return back here to finish it off, my wife and I are so happy that its finally happening onwards and upwards. tl 29 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

tillylamp 1,831 Posted March 19, 2015 Author Report Share Posted March 19, 2015 Best of Luck Go for it with no regretts Where abouts in Canada you planning on settling? My grandfather ran away from home at 13-14 and made his way to Liverpool Some how got on a boat and made his way over there He came back 8 yrs later when a parent died but always spoke well of the country. thanks mate, we are heading to Calgary, we are staying at our mates for a while then buying our own place, your grandfather was right about the country though, Quote Link to post Share on other sites

tillylamp 1,831 Posted March 19, 2015 Author Report Share Posted March 19, 2015 What occupation do you have? Do you need a preferred occupation to be eligible? It depends on the route you take. My wife sponsored me, which is the quickest route. Check on the Canadian Immigration website, on there it will tell you the different routes you can take. Have you got the moving bug ?? I am in the building trade. He went in 26 He was born in 13 He ended up in a place called Lindsay He worked on the farms first few years He said they were vast Cold in the winter but beautiful summers Last few years he worked on the road gangs as motor vehicles were becoming popular Iv probably unknown relatives over there In the last month or so of his life he was half mentioning a few things lol It's on the bucket list somewhere along the line Maybe a short stay in New York then up over thru Maine over to see Niagra Falls then over to Ontario and Lindsay. One Day What a good story, he obviously enjoyed him self. It would nice if you could get there sooner than later as you could live the Canadian dream. u taking any dogs over I haven't got any dogs to take. Will be getting one once we settle in Calgary 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
