    TEF - EXAM ( DO I HAVE TO TAKE )

    If you really need that extra point, it's a good idea to take the test. Otherwise, how would they really know your language ability?

    Rule unclear re: being employed by canadian business outside of canada

    Exclusion (2) For greater certainty, a Canadian business does not include a business that serves primarily to allow a permanent resident to comply with their residency obligation while residing outside Canada. Ahhh .. it's always the fine print that gets ya!

    Canadian temporary visitor visa!

    stevo2 If I'm not mistaken, I think they can arrange an interview in Chinese. I don't think it matters that her English is limited. Give your local Canadian embassy a call and ask to be sure. Explain the whole thing - that she's your wife, that you're already a citizen, etc. tg

    how to convince you want to come back

    jesssmith I think your biggest problem is explaining why you'd want to go (backwards) from finishing your Bachelor's degree to studying at a community college. Not that community colleges don't have great programs. But they don't offer 4-year degrees. So it wouldn't look like you were trying...

    Sending in passport

    If you happen to have a copy of your passport and all pages made prior to sending it to the visa office, you might send that and ask them to return your passport. Explain that you need to travel or whatever. Otherwise, I don't know. But I'm not an immigration expert - just an immigrant like...

    visitor visa ?

    nanak12 Canada doesn't have a "visitor visa" - it has a temporary residence visa (TRV). And Egypt is one of the countries whose citizens are required to obtain a TRV. As PMM was saying, unless you have strong ties to your country (job, school, house, family), it's unlikely you'll be granted a...

    Status as a Worker with permanent residency

    Status as a Worker with permanent residency

    When you have permanent residence, you can do pretty much everything (work, go to school, run a business, etc.) except vote or obtain a security clearance. No further permits are required.

    The tag "Canadian experience".

    Hey Qumbi, I think, as you pointed out, it's an imperfect system. The government surveys the work environment to determine which jobs are most in need of filling, and then grants visas to those it sees as qualified. What you actually end up doing in Canada is beside the point - the government...

    getting a job in Canada

    Will canadian employers risk offering employment to a uk citizen prior to their arrival? Employers might be willing to sponsor you for a work permit to speed up application processing, but not without meeting you first. I'm sure they wouldn't even offer a job to another Canadian whom they...

    Sending in passport

    You only send a copy of your passport with the application. Later they'll ask you to send the passport itself, but it'll be returned fairly quickly.
