Speeding up the process - is it possible!?
Hi Gary

Fab to get a reply, thanks!
Hubby is a UK qualified lawyer (he'll need to requalify under Canadian law to practice) so we applied as a skilled lawyer.
We've since discovered (tho we may be wrong) that it may be quicker to apply for a student visa for him (I'd hopefully get a work visa) and we all go out together, and wait it out over there, this would be more preferable to us!!!
Yes our application has been acknowledged but we've heard nothing further from the High Commission.
We were told 3-4 year waiting list, then once we enter the processing system it can take a further year - having set the wheels in motion in 2004 we aren't too happy to wait til 2010 or so!!
Someone else told me to look into types of jobs which aren't easily filled (can't think of an easier way to put it, but basically look for less popular jobs?) but I wouldn't quite know where to begin to identify what those may be?! Any suggestions?!
Have you used an immigration lawyer? You say 'my immigration people' ... ?
Good luck with your application and thanks again!
