Can't wait to tell everyone else now. Bye for now.

Hi, yes I had the 3rd blood test at the end of November so CIC have acted pretty swiflty to get the passport requests out considering there was Christmas and New Year in between.
Good luck to you.

Thanks Funky Florist. From what I remember you sailed through the process very quickly. How are you settling in there? Tell me the bad as well as the good. I'm prepared for all the down falls!!

Hi Miss Clinique, i'm not sure exactly when we will be moving over but i'm aiming for May/June maybe sooner. Lots to consider such as term times at school and whether the kids could during a term. I'm very pleased that this process is coming to an end and a new chapter is beginning!

Actually we've settled in pretty well and are getting used to things. In fact I just wrote an article about our experiences which is on the front page of this website!

I'm so pleased you are over the worst of the process - now the fun and mayhem of moving starts!!! Best of luck.

Hi FF,

I have read your article and it gives us great support and helps us understand that our worries are not unusual. We are planning to move to the Chilliwack area when we get to Canada in Mid May but haven't yet decided exactly where. We have some friends in Chilliwack who are picking us up from the airport when we arrive and have kindly offered to put us up for a while until we find somewhere to live. If you don't mind us asking whereabouts did you decide to settle in the Fraser Valley?

Congratulations CC! That must be a huge relief. Will you now be staying in Canada permanently or are you coming back to the UK at some point. Hope all is going well.

I'm here on a 6 month holiday/recce and will be using my return ticket (late May) to go back and collect my golf clubs and 2 suitcases (full) that I left at my sisters place. Hopefully by then everything with cic will be completed so will be able to buy a one way ticket, say my goodbye's and land
