Landing was straightforward at the Pacific Highway POE. They didn't even look through the U-Haul. They told my husband when he travels with me I am his "little piece of Canada". hehe. blushing. Feels SO good to have everything including moving done and done. Time to relax...until we line up...

Hey guys, confusing -- which form do I use for goods imported at landing and which form for goods to follow..?

hello September, it is quiet on here. August was hopping so I found myself over on that thread a lot. i wish everyone had a less than 6 month wait. all i can say is this forum kept me sane, so I hope September apps will check in with each other more often. it really helps, especially in the...

Wonderful everyone! Happy the landing was smooth and thanks for the banking info knowledge101, ever helpful. We have our COPR in hand and might have to land and then come back over the border with stuff in a U-haul due to timing issues. I will post about landing when we do. Whatever the...

wow, thanks so much for the info! you are so informed!! aha! a link about them repealing condition 51 https://www.thestar.com/news/immigration/2016/10/31/liberals-announce-changes-to-spousal-sponsorship-rules.html

I know it gets harder and harder to wait as it gets closer. so weird. now i wish we could land tomorrow

that is so exciting! my hubbie is making all his lists now for import and probably ditching all his various used vehicles as importing them is ridiculously expensive. so we've booked a truck for March 10th...i can't wait btw i'm certain we will fall under condition 51, what do we have to keep...

Hello everyone, I am finally through, mycic updated as approved and our COPR is in the mail today. For those US outland fidgeting with Annex A, it worked for me to fill out the blank Annex A provided on the August forum. Our gmail accounts had cut off the Annex A form. CIC it's called a PDF...

August thread is on fire, i love it, all the forward movement in everyone's lives mycic shows approved today, our COPR is in an expresspost back to us!

No passport, only a photocopy of a passport was sent, so it's the envelope for the COPR still, I would want tracking on that valuable paper within Canada by expresspost with signature, outside I would fedex -- it's worth $20 after half a year or more of trouble

woweeeee, and just like that, it was done wonderful! hopefully we'll get ours the week of the 13th then. planned landing Feb 27th!

wonderful wonderful wonderful!

that's too bad about mycic, but in some ways it saves your sanity not being able to check it I don't know about Vienna VO but I can say that it was only a week or 2 after my medical showed as received that my background check went into progress, the background check took a long time, but...

There are a few other Ottawa apps that are quiet on the google doc, but not sure if they're still active on here, might want to message them to ask... Is your case straight forward? Is it an outland US app?

Whoever gets COPR first gets to name the new alums thread!!!!!! Even if I don't get to meet you guys in person this has been the most rewarding virtual friends I've had, so much gratitude to all your info and keeping my spirits up

you would wait for background check listed on mycic to be in progress, that is the last step before decision on ECAS. How come no link to mycic? representative? Otherwise try the tricks on the september google doc under the tab on linking to mycic

AGREED! best advice, preparation and honesty Oy, Stevin! I feel the same, but I'm stuck in Vancouver for now! We should start a thread for all the stuff we gotta go through next -- apply for driver's, medicare, my hubbie is looking for work, settling american ex-pats into full time canadian...

my gmail doesn't give me a clipped option -- but it's forwarded from my hubbie's gmail, so maybe because of that? I'm having him re-email to my non-gmail. I'll update if that works... I tried looking on my phone after you said that, but on my android I don't get the clipped option either! wah...

e-x-a-c-t-l-y the low techness of govt online stuff is appalling to me, investing resources there would save money and hassle for us and them

i know right, they make the easiest things damn near impossible and the hard things oversimplified!
