Permanent residence for Ukrainian nationals with family members in Canada

 Hello everyone,

I was just starting to miss all the filling of application and immigration forms after I submitted my application for citizenship, when here comes another program for Ukrainian family members. You can see more details here.  I have applied my mom for the new program that is a pretty new for everyone and we don't know what to expect and how long. I decided to share the timeline of the application process so we can see how this new program goes. The process of applying is pretty easy, not sure if I need to explain each step here, but let me know if you need so I'll try to help.

Ok. Fingers crossed. 

Ready, Set, Go!
