Visa and workpermit
 

Hi all,

I am entering Canada in Toronto. I received a letter from the Canadian
embassy in Berlin which tells me to just show the letter to the customs
officer on entering Canada. He/she will guide me to the Immigration office
where i will receive my temporary workpermit and visa. Do i get the actual
papers on arrival? In that case, how do they know where i am going to enter
Canada? Or do they send it later? Nothing of this matter is mentioned in the
letter i received. Or do they "produce" a workpermit on the spot? Why did i
send in 2 photo's then? Maybe stupid questions, but i want to be prepared. I
am used to "Murphy's law", and i dont want to be sent back home on the same
plane.

Thanks in advance,

Willem

Yes

The approval is on the FOSS computer system, will be issued immediately.

Hoi,


Dankjewel,
Ik kom alleen, en ik land de 26e mei.De volgende dag vlieg ik naar
Fredericton, om me daar een beetje in te burgeren...;-)

Vrouw en kind blijven thuis, want om hun leven te gaan ontregelen voor een
jaar is ook niet nodig. Ik ga namelijk op een vrachtwagen rijden en ik zal
toch nooit "thuis" zijn. Dus laat ik ze van de winter wel even overkomen,
kunnen ze een keer echt sneeuw zien, lol

Groetjes, Willem
