Is't better to immigate to Canada under the skilled worker section or the family section ?
The embassy is asking if I want to withdraw my file under the skilled worker field & convert to the family field so my husband can sponsor me to Canada.
Which one do you think is better ? shall I keep my file under the skilled worker fieled ? or it's better to let my husband sponsor me there ? noting that I'm a self - dependable person

Answer:
I am married to a cnd man and immigrated there. do the family class app outside of canada. how far along is the other app though?
family class is now much faster than is used to be . but if you do in canada app family you cannot work or get medical coverage unitl you are perm or "landed"
if you applied in 2005 have you tried to get a job there under NAFTA that is faster and if you get a job it can speed up the skilled work thing. but you must be very careful to follow the process. what sites from the govt have you been on?
i won a legal fight in canada against a school for my daughter. i have spent many hours reading up on the govt site and canada case law on this topic.
go to www.canlii.org for cases and the immigration and refugee board on canada.
also, read up on the brdiges program in ontario. at the www.cic.gc.ca site.
if you close out the case now it could take 2 more yrs. have you asked for a case status or "foss note"
I would check first with the Embassy's posted processing times for Federal Skilled Workers. Some Embassy's take much, much longer than others, many up to 6 years.
The CPR Spousal only takes about 6 -10 months, depending on the processing post (check www.cic.gc.ca).
if you can't find the posted processing times ask yourself this - if the Embassy has NOT issued you a request for you to complete your medical examination yet, you probably have at least 6-8 months of processing, may as well go with the spousal.
