Hello everyone. I am new to this forum.
I recently received my ITA for PR without employment.

Get yourself a  :coffee:  and read & read & read

Thanks for the warm welcome  :)
By the way, I am from Durban, and I hope to settle in either Auckland or Wellington.
I just wish I could find a job before landing though  :o

Welcome, and if you already received your ITA without a job offer, it means you shouldn't have too much problems getting a job.  You can start applying already, and letting potential employers know that you've already received your ITA.  That will open more doors than if you were still applying for just a work visa.  All the best!!
lekker sweet as, y'all

Thanks again for the welcome messages. It feels great to belong here!

Thanks, that's exactly what I have been doing since I received the ITA.

About the wait, I have been waiting almost 2 years for Canada  >:( so I am quite used to it. I only recently decided to stop waiting and find some place better. I sure hope that all goes well, and doesn't take too long  :)
