We made it.... been here a week now
Well we passed the immigration finish line and landed in Toronto last Sunday.
It seems strange that we are finally here after all the emotional application phase we keep thinking blimey we actullay made it and we are here for good
Our two cats survived the flight ok, after an initial panic of getting one of them out of the travel crate and she could hardly walk, they have both settled in fine and are back to normal.
We've got out SIN and a bank account so everything is pretty good really.
Have promised ourselves a couple of weeks holiday than OH will be job hunting
Thanks to everyone on here, it was really good reading this site and realising you are not alone in the process.

Good luck!

It must have been ONE amazing week... And quite a big run up to it, and am sure, it's JUST the start LOL.
Good Luck, and Lots of Happiness in your NEW LIFE!

We should be following not far behind... in just under a couple of months, so hopefully will be able to read your progress.
