I signed a contract with a well known recruiter and was told I have a secured a job placement for September 1st. I have yet to receive the 3 copies signed by POE/NIIED or a certificate and visa number. Is anyone else waiting to hear? When I call and e-mail the recruiter she tells me just to wait!
The EPIK site has little info, also this is for a public school.
Should I apply elsewhere, is anyone else going through this process?
Thanks.

Epik is hit or miss. It all depends on what school you are sent to.

What you are experiencing is normal. The recruiter will send you your visa issuance number when he receives it.

I got mine one week before I was suppose to leave. Pretty much the norm.

Start learning to relax and not get in a hurry!

Thanks for the info. I just found out that I was turned down by the one provincial board so my recruiter is sending me a contract for another province. I think its due to my age, 53.
