    Sister Mon: Canada’s Newest Permanent Resident – Sadhu! Sadhu! Sadhu!

    This afternoon we received the wonderful news from our immigration attorney that Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada (IRCC) has approved Sister Mon’s permanent residency application! What was expected to take 12-24 months took just under two months. All our good efforts, and your metta wishes, have brought this long journey to a marvelous conclusion.

    Immense gratitude to all of you for your support and well wishes for Sister Mon over these many years – Anumodana!

    May you all remain healthy, happy and peaceful.
