Wow, what took so long?

It took three years to clear the security check.
I lived/worked all over Asia before applying.
It seems CICIS and countries like Kyrgyzstan have trouble communicating!?

Good "hurry up and wait" practice though :blotto:

Patiently playing the waiting game now. Exciting game racing to the phone every time it rings.

Edmonton's Medical staff are on leave I was told, so the recruiter said that it'd be about mid February before any appointments are made.

Moderator edit : you double posted in what i assume what a finger error, so i turfed it
