This is being discussed a lot at the HSMP-specific forum. So you should check there.RSARD wrote:Hi
Now that BIA has decided not to challenge the ruling for HSMP does it mean that ILR shall also be issued after 4 years to old HSMP people as the judge had said that the scheme should be applied in totality.
Thanks
yes exactly, so work permit holders have to wait 5 years for ILR, after the JR last year.centennial wrote:Last year ILR fight was for work permit holders only not for HSMPians.
HSMP forum is considering appeal against it incase govt doesnt implement it.
regards,
We don't know yet. One interpretation of the judge's comments would suggest we can apply after 4 years. However, the 4-5 year change wasn't the question being decided, so we may be over-interpreting surrounding comments. I think there is another review planned to clarify the 4-5 year question for pre-2006 HSMPs, but not sure of the details.peter786 wrote:you mean pre 2006 hsmpians can apply for ILR after 4 years???
