  1. The lines don’t *get* any straighter than this. Some UK comic is going to make five minutes of absolute hay with this lol.

  2. Here’s a couple more examples of the Immigration department’s onerous and stupid language proficiency requirements.

  3. Sources say the oral exam was failed when the subject failed to say “Purple Burglar alarm”

    So the actual story here is: Immigration services is so slow to respond; what should have been a quick clerical error to fix is now dragging out into a weeks long ordeal.

    TLDR:
    They took months to send the notice that some paperwork was missing from her application, her current permit will expire before they fix the new application so she’ll likely need to leave the country temporarily until it all gets sorted.

    She got burned by bureaucratic hurdles. The government needs to help her out . Paying 60,000 to work here and do all the correct things only to be tripped up by the system is annoying AF .

    Is this government that stupid?
    “Heather Gilchrist moved to Canada from the U.K., looking for a fresh start after the loss of her husband.

    Canadian immigration officials insisted that Gilchrist, a native English speaker, do a language test”.

    Here in Winnipeg, hundreds of people from one country getting approved for work and study permits often barely speak or understand the language.
