Best of luck. Hope to meet you there.

It sure is a long old road. I'm on it myself, similar timeline to yours. Might be a silly question but (as I don't think you mentioned it) have you tried sending a follow-up email(s). I generally get a response when I do that at least. I've been told it can take 18 months to 2 years so...

Your experience sounds much like mine - PR, from Europe. I began the process approximately a year ago. CFAT, medical, and interview all done. I assume I am somewhere in the background check stage. Haven't checked in with them since December but I will likely email this week to see where we are at.

Oh, I suppose it will be whoever the WEF decide they want running the ship. Nothing to do with us, really, we just pay the taxes.

Is a legal challenge a possibility?

Amen.

Hi Kolby, I can't share anything specific about the CFAT (we aren't allowed to) but if you are doing the online tests, or one of the CFAT test books available on Amazon then you will be well prepared. It's basically that stuff. Advice? Do the tests under test conditions and to the time you get...

That is very much the reality - despite some of the (disappointing) gloating on this site over people getting heavy prison sentences for saying (very) stupid things. And, yes, mostly just those who are opposed to the government are getting this treatment. There is no real balance there.

I would say best call during office hours - or better yet, email. That way you don't catch them by surprise, and they may take a look at your file and give you a more useful, considerered response/steps to be taken or whatever. Just my 2 cents.

Officer - PRes for me. I assume Reg folks might be dealt with on a faster track, but that may not be the case.

I think you don't really understand the political system in the UK. Only two parties can realistically hope to form a government: Labour or the Tories. There are other parties on the peripheries, two of the more significant being the Liberal Democrats and the brand new Reform party. Reform is...

My CFAT, fitness test, interview and medical are all also now complete - which I guess just leaves background check. I think the estimate above - 2 minutes to never - sounds about right! The advice to go ahead with the rest of your life while the application slow cooks also seems solid. For...

"Every ethnic group has consistently become less segregated since the census started keeping track in 1991" I'm not sure what metric is being used to state this - but spending any appreciable time in either London or Birmingham, Blackburn, Leeds or a long list of other of the northern...

Exactly.

You would be largely correct - but you miss one crucial fact: The UK just had an election about 5 weeks ago. In that election the public kicked the Tories out of office because that party had refused to reduce mass immigration to manageable levels and get control of illegal immigration. The...

"Expressing harmful opinions" Who decides what constitutes "harmful"? No democratic government has the right to criminalize criticism of itself.

That's a pretty well-balanced account of the problem. It doesn't capture every aspect, but most of it is succinctly covered there. Thank you.

Hmmm.... not sure it's quite that simple. Among the activities of the 'anti-racist' protestors were the usual chants of Free Palestine and other anti-Semitic pro-Hamas nonsense - and indeed the Labour Councillor (one Ricky Jones) who was caught on camera at one of yesterday's 'anti-racist'...

Really? I just saw it on army.ca.....
