In the inland application was there a form for sponsor's work history?
No. They asked what the sponsor's profession is, and where they are presently employed on the Sponsorship Evaluation.

Congrats Profiler, that is a great opportunity, $110 / hr is just WOW. Go for it, congrats again :)

So I did congrats Voodoo in a private channel, but congrats publicly all the same.

I'm looking at a strange predicament that may spur a crisis of identity and faith.

As you know, the missus just landed. Since her landing, I've had to repel for sure 1 job prospect in San Jose, but overnight, I recieved a direct communique from a hiring manager in Seattle. For the world's single largest online retailer.

Rate of pay is on the plus side of U$110. The last one was a little more, but required lifetime servitude to Lucifer.

Normally I give it a quick thought, and send a 5 page rant back about why the hell not. The last one was perfect. Included H1B wisa problems, my newly landed wife, etc. They actually called the next morning to try to work out a deal too... I was "in a meeting" until next lifetime.

So, this new one is different. The guy doing the hiring, emailed me at 11:03pm on our long weekend Saturday... Very personal. Usually I can see passed the facade, when Microsoft or friends come poaching. But this time, I'm not so sure.

I kinda like my current job too...

So, group question time: do I take the bait, and see how far it goes? Does anyone know the process for acquiring work sponsored green cards? For spouses?

That's a per yr number. Fire that into xe.com and it comes up in the realm of 155. Cost of living, maintaining our home here and there, my son lives here so frequent travel, etc. It feels like a lateral move. Plus no satellites or Intel agencies...

I'll flirt for now. If it costs more than a trip to Seattle, I'll probably refuse it.

:rolleyes:Houston, we have landed !

It went went pretty well.
We were in the building by 9:40am and out by 9:50 (ahead of my 10am schedule)

Walked in and was greeted by a lovely lady with a big smile.
She took Mr 's passport and receipt and told us to have a seat

We were (he was) called up, asked to verify if the information printed on the COPR was correct.

Now questions....2. Have you ever been convicted of a crime in or outside of Canada. NO?..ok initial,here.....
Have you any dependent. NOPE, ok initial,here

He signed the bottom of the sheet, the officer stamped and signed and that was that...we were done

We were told that we needed to wait until Tuesday to apply for a perm SIN
The health card we took care of today

Then we went to Ye's sushi and I had a food coma

They didn't check my ID, and I honestly forgot to offer it up also. They didn't check anything else at all ...just receipt and his PP *keep in mind that this may not be the case for all offices*

Such a calm ending to it all...now we wait for the card in the mail which should be around 8 weeks according to them.

Kitch office is fantastic, all of the staff I interacted with were fantastic! As suspected, inlanders land on Fridays. :cool:

Congrats Guyana! Sounded nice and calm. Thanks for sharing your experience.

Sure, why not entertain the offer..... but I hope you don't go Profiler. You live in the best country in North America and you have a great life (job, lifestyle, community) here and your son and family are here.

It $$ sounds good BUT, US & US immigration.....what does Mrs Profiler say?
Can you not work remotely or from one of their Canadian Offices?

I made more teaching than 110/hr CDN. But I would prefer to die the most painful, of painful deaths than teach ever, ever again. I was shot an opportunity from Bermuda to work for $150USD/hr....but they didn't like the idea of me being married (????). To put into scale, It may be a little more than now, but when you factor in the rest of the costs, it almost feels lateral.

I am waiting to hear back regarding that question... but that would constitute a daily commute into the heart of Toronto every day... that's terrible :(.

Best of luck in making your decision! I like to sit with big decisions like this for a few days, then listen to what my gut has to say 'bout it.

Good news! My account updated today to say that i've passed my medical exam that I did ahead of time and sent in with my application 11 months ago. I'm seeing that it's about a month from passing med checks to landing interviews, anyone else land or going to be landing soon in Calgary? Hoping it's faster than a month but i'm still pretty happy to see some movement!

Good morning,

I'm still playing the waiting game like many of you. I logged onto the CIC site and the only two status updates I see are:

  • My app was received on May 15th, 2016
  • Medical Results have been received
Once the decision has been made, how long does it take to get the interview scheduled and land? I'm unsure of the time frame . Thanks!
I m in the same position as you are and got decision made 2 weeks ago and still waiting for an appointment.
