some of my officemates applied to Canada thru CIC. i'm also considering to migrate in canada for a better pastures (hope so) esp for my kids with the advice and invitation of my cousin who has been there for the past 5 years. accdg to her, it would only took 1-2 years waiting since my kids are still small. luckily both my wife and i have work. can anybody explain or give an opinion what's the difference between sponsorship (by relatives) and the CIC way? does anybody here in tsikot tried these process? which of the two would be helpful in our case.
