Subject: Quickest way to be eligible to work.. please help!
  Hi

My girlfriend is a Canadian Citizen and now pregnant and i am therefore immigrating to Vancouver.

The only problem is I will need to work as soon as I can when I get there in order to suppport our new family! :-(

Going through the traditional channels is driving me mad as it is taking too long and there is no certainty we will be approved.

Does anyone know a way in which I can get a work visa quickly?? I´ve heard about landed immigrant status... Can anyone tell me more?

I´ve looked at the WOrk Holiday Visa too, but we are currently in Australia and do not have the money to fly back via the UK,nor the time to do so (you must be in your country of residence when you apply for this year long visa apparently).

Any Help would be appreciated greatly as Im sure you can imagine how desperate we are getting.

Thanks a million everyone :-)

Why not get a job in the UK (I assume your country of citizenship). You fiance can go with you. You both can live there until you visa is processed.

We have pondered that but she owns her own business in Canada so really it has to be there. :-(

Then why do you need to work if she has a business? There is a residency limit to a tourist visa, but you would need to leave and return to the country from time to time. If the province has a nominee program she maybe able to give you a job which would speed up the process. The only hitch would be that it would have to be something that no Canadian can do so it would require special skills.

But basically, there is no quick way. I would be careful that what ever method you choose does not hurt you chance for a permanent visa.
