We landed on 1st February. I just rang CIC and was told my card was mailed 2 days ago :-)

For anyone else calling, it is 1,1,4,1 :-) They said our cards are in process but to wait 2 more weeks (March 9th) and call if they have not arrived by then. Hubby goes to the UK for business on the 6th :-( I know getting into the UK with a UK passport won't be a problem, but landing back in...

Are there options to press when you call CIC on 1-888-242-2100?? What do they ask you (UCI no)??

I did not have to strip to my underwear (I am also female). Because of my age (45) she wanted to give me a breast exam but that was it. She listed to my chest, did blood pressure etc and an eye test but that was it. Even at the chest x-ray you do not have to strip off at all.

Can you not fill apply for an ESTA?? When we landed last weekend and asked about going into the states, the border officer said anyone who has filled in an ESTA in the last 2 years doesnt need an i94.

Hi. We came from the UK with our dog 2 years ago and it was quite easy. We needed an DEFRA export health certificate (ring DEFRA and they will send one to your vets office), he needed to be up to date with his vaccinations and he had a rabies jab. We knew he did not necessarily need the...

Creepy crawlies in Oz scare the bejeezus outta me!!! :o :o :o

No problem at all :-) I have updated the spreadsheet (http://goo.gl/L8B8ia) as far as I can see. Can everyone please check to see if it is correct for yourselves and let me know of any missing updates?
