VEC, no more. by bluenz
Now it's official, ( in my province ), my wife and I were "summoned " by immigration to attend a meeting with them this morning, to be informed that they are not issuing VEC's anymore, and if the doubting wanker on here still ...

Last month, an associate here must have been one of the last people in my province to get a VEC, and the wife said he will be " summoned " when his 90 day extension / renewal is due. So it sounds like they have just finally made this ... Read More
