Can you give me the waiting times for Non-Contributory Parent? Are you
saying its a 15 year wait to get PR? How long is the AOS for?
And a Contributory Parent would wait how long to get PR? How long is the
AOS for? 2 years?
Thanks for your time JAJ, i am just weighing up the options but will
look at getting an agent to go through it once i decide which is best
for both sets of parents.
Cheers Tincx
