Landed Today at Kitchener CIC Office!!!
Hi expats & potential ones!
I've not been on here much since the kids and I joined my husband Greg in Canada on June 20th. Been busy settling into our new Canadian home and just getting out and about enjoying the summer months here. In a nutshell:- Greg started work on his TWP in May. When we first joined him, we stayed in a company townhouse rental, then a hotel for a few nights, and eventually got into our own home in north west Waterloo on July 17th. Loving it here. Hubby's enjoying his new 'dream' job and the kids were at our neighbourhood outdoor pool nearly everyday. Just glad my eldest is now back at school after a 10 week vacation!!!! She's loving school too. We live in a lovely spacious suburb, close to the countryside too....I've found everyone very welcoming. For Greg, the best thing is being less than 10 minutes from work. In fact he cycles most days at the moment. After a long and stressful wait (just on 3 years), we finally got our PR visas in August and with being here on TWPs, we were able to phone a 1-800 number and arrange a local landing appointment, saving a trip across to the US. We called the number and it took about 3 weeks to get the appointment through. So, this morning we had a really relaxed landing experience, driving 20 mins to our local Kitcher office and going through our paperwork with a very pleasant lady there. She said we should get our PR cards now within about 4 weeks. I know it's early days, but not regretting it for a minute. Looking forward to the change of seasons now and taking the kids to the local ski hill in the Winter. There's so much to do here. Lynsey :D |

Re: Landed Today at Kitchener CIC Office!!!
Oooo, that's got to feel good .......fab landings!
We are planning to land as PRs in the Victoria office when we get our passports/visas back in the next month or so. I was wondering if it would be as exciting as physically crossing the border, getting the wee flag and the "welcome to Canada". However, the ferry trip to the mainland, the drive and wait to get into the US and the hassle factor outweigh that so we'll be very happy to go be able to go to the office to make it all "official". (Then meet with pals later for many many drinkies.) Congrats!!! Glad it's all going well for you. |
