Putting together our application

We returned to the UK after a great trip to Nova Scotia and knew that we had to continue and apply for permanent residence visas. We were confident that we would receive the Letter of Identification from Corda in due course and so we started collecting together all the paperwork required for the initial application to Nova Scotia Immigration in Halifax.
Finally after several weeks of rooting round in the loft, asking HR at work for proof of what I'd been doing for the last 20 years etc, we had all the necessary paperwork (127 sheets of A4 !!!) and we posted off everything on July 27th 2009. The letter of Identification had been sent directly to Halifax from Corda to await our application.
