I am a mechanic and my wife is a nurse. Would we find places to live and get jobs or are we expected to go there and build houses? Are there other people living there? We are just looking for opportunities for our children. Can you tell us about this opportunity? JC Dear JC, The Government of Canada recently launched the Rural and Northern Immigration Pilot (RNIP), which is aimed at ensuring that rural and smaller communities can benefit from skilled and professional immigrants who want to settle in these communities. It is community-driven, based on the needs of the community and so each community will have their own specific requirements. It is like the Provincial Nominee Programmes (PNP).

A friend left a few years ago and she said she went up as a federal skilled worker. However, most people here are talking about the Express Entry Programme. I’m not sure which programme to use. My wife is a teacher and we want to take our family to Canada but not sure if we should use the Express Entry Programme or the Federal Skilled Worker Programme. Which should we use? Do we need a lawyer to do it for us? We await your response. KF Dear KF There is no Express Entry Programme .

D ear Miss Powell, I was in Canada at one time and then I was sent back home. How do I apply to go back to Canada? My children live there, and I haven’t seen them in years. What can I do to return?

Dear Miss Powell, I have applied for a Canadian visitor’s visa three times and I keep getting turned down. My mother lives there and she is sick, and I would love to visit with her, but they won’t give me the visa. They say they are not convinced that I will return to Jamaica. What can I do to just let them know that I don’t want to live there and that I’m simply worried about my mom? I just want to see her. She hasn’t been able to travel because of her illness. I’m her only child and they are keeping me away from her. Why does the Canadian government make it so hard? What can I do? HJ Dear HJ, I am sorry to hear about your mom’s illness and that your application for a temporary resident/visitor’s visa has been rejected so many times. At this point, I think you need to consult directly with an immigration lawyer, provide her with copies of the documents and the application form that you submitted to evaluate what could be lacking, or if there are errors.
