Lists

A lot of spare time has been spent over the last week or so trying to think of everything we will need to do for our application.

This is the result:


Three sheets of flip chart paper, two containing PR application to-do items and one containing miscellaneous to-do items loosely connected to the application (e.g. decorate bedrooms before house valuation etc...).

We've split them up and put a time frame against them for completion - End of March, mid April, end of April etc...

Today is the last day of February and there are four to complete:
  • Order Lydia's university transcripts
  • Order employment history report from HMRC
  • Download list of duties from the Canadian National Occupation Classification (NOC) list - Employment references must state that your job included these duties as part of the application.
  • Get details of brothers and sisters (names, addresses, DOB, place of birth) including step brothers and sisters.
How many have we done....... one (the NOC duty list)! Oh dear. Well, that's not technically true. It's more like 3.5 as the HMRC report and the transcripts have been ordered, but we can't tick them off until we have the paperwork in hand. The remaining part is the details of brothers and sisters. Lydia has her side, but I still have to sort out my side, so it's me that's slacking, but I still have this evening to meet the deadline :)

Currently the lists hold 38 items, and there will be more to add (eeek!). Looks like we have a busy few months ahead :)

Progress updates will follow, so at least I'll have something to post about.

  1. Have enjoyed reading your blog. Sounds like you had a great trip over last year! We were on our 4th Canada-visit at a similar time, although across the other side of the country. We're heading to Nova Scotia (through PNP - had med requests last month).

    Best of luck getting everything finalised for your application. Sounds like you're very organised!

  2. Hi Sarah,

    Good luck with the move. It really is time for us to get our finger out as the clock is ticking.
