Dear all sorry for the delay in reply.
A friend I read about migrated in 2011 and she is is winking doll, you can read about her adventures by googling for her, a colleague's uncle also migrated in 2011 and I can assure everyone that they applied in late 2009, the process too approx. a year. Winking doll is a registered nurse while my colleague's uncle is a sales manager. They are both in Vancouver and I am not close enough to ask them for details.
My ex sec school mate is an auditor with PwC, no arranged employee. I personally don't know him well enough, and I only message him on FB and he told me he received request for MR last month (somewhere in mid august, he doesn't remember the date) and he submitted his MR in end August at Raffles Medical Hospital (hospital submitted for him). He is a 2013 applicant and I do not think he will remember the dates such as application Received dates and PER received dates. He only told me he submitted his application in August last year. I will ask him to furnish more details in this forum when he is available.
