Dear Sir Qorax,

Please look at my timeline, mine and spouse medicals reached CHC London on 10th Jan 2012.
I have not yet recieved PPRs and the delay is abnormal. I sent an email on 20th Aug. 2012
and got following reply after two weeks.

" your file is under routine background check and if any further information is
needed you will be informed accrodingly"

Neither I got pprs nor any request for any information. My wife is a surgeon and she is doing
residency in pediatric surgery in military hospital in Pak. She does not have any military rank,
just a temporary resident for a specific period and purpose. I have mentioned this fact while
updating. I assume that may be the only reason for this abnormal delay and I just can not
imagine any other reason at all.

Qorax Sir, I need your expert opinion on this delay. Getting frustrated and disgusted.

Regards......Qamar0002 :(

We were not in fast track and few others from same time period got their first medical expired as well. The reason as answered via email was "background check".

I would like to take this opportunity to update you guys regarding our PR application ???. This morning the E-CAS turned into "Decision Made", :) and this noon..well.. everything on me erupted and was almost dislodged from where I was positioned doing my work :-X :'( .
As of writing, I am still overwhelmed and speechless :-X (I really like to scream now) :p my colleague just handed me over a package from Aramex. Upon seeing where it came from and what documents are indicated on the waybill, tears(of joy of course) are bulging through the corner of my eyes already. Paused a bit and gave thanks and praises to God on this very very unforgetable gift which He have given to us. This is the best thing that happened on a Thursday, actually its a double whammy!! Whew.. I got back the passports and sweet maple leaf are stamped on each of it!! :eek:

Thank you seniors, guys n gals for all the wishes, advices, extra infos, efforts, guidance, threads, post replies and everything all under the sun that everyone have shared,opined,discussed and provided. It's such a wonderful feeling ;). Guys keep on believing and keep patience on its maximum green levels at all times. Goodluck to us all, to those who are waiting and to those who are just starting.
One door closed and another doos opens anew. Oh sweet life, thank you heavenly Father Almighty!!

Congrats... It's the LORD'S doing. Wish you many success ahead.

Hi,

I will be moving to Canada in about a month and was wondering if it is advisable to purchase a Laptop here in Dubai, or get one in Canada. Usually there are good deals at GITEX.

I'm hoping some of the earlier Dubai based and now Canadian residents would have some advice/comments.
Appreciate your response.

Thanks,
ASMB

Check the websites of bestbuy, staples or futureshop to get an idea of laptop prices in Canada. But I know that the prices during the last 2 days of Gitex are really good!

On another note...are you resigning your job and coming here? Have you done enough research about your profile and industry? I landed in Jan'12 and till date i haven't landed in any job. Please do research from all sources and then take the right decision. This is my sincere advice, as I have suffered enough :( :(
