Hi Everyone! I have now been in Canada for 3 weeks and I thought I would give everyone my landing experience and how I have got on setting everything up. Background : Coming in on a common law visa. Partner is Canadian and came over 4 weeks before me to get us a set up in an apartment...

Random Question.....but is there anything like Argos in Ontario? I'm wanting nice but not too expensive bedroom furniture. The nearest Ikea is Toronto and that's like 2hrs away. I've looked at the Walmart catalog (he hee getting into the North American spelling) and they have some decent stuff...

I sent my stuff in advance. but they have great customer service people that'll help

UPDATE ON SENDING GOODS TO CANADA!! I just wanted to let everyone know that I found an excellent company that sends your goods to Canada. http://www.transglobal.org.uk/ You can use your own boxes and you just give them the dimensions and the weight. You can send single boxes or send multiples...

CONGRATS!!

Hi Guys, So that's me getting us all packed up. I am going to send my stuff with UPS, I know I have to put a packing list in it but will there be duty or excise to be paid on my personal goods? Thanks for the help. It's nice to be able to ask people these questions.

I put mine in the wallet from the photo place. but i would also agree with pinklady, an envelope will be fine

Hey guys, Just wondering what people would recommend for getting your stuff over to Canada? We don't have any furniture as we have just been renting, but lots of books, ornaments, personal belongings. Which way do you find is cheaper? Some people have said to use the post office/ parcel force...

Fantastic news!! Well done!

Congratulations!!

P.S. I've used them 4 time before and no issues. The few times i've used a US flight and transfered I always end up waiting a few days for my luggage on the way back.

We are going with Canadian Affair. They use a Thomas Cook/Air Transat plane but are cheaper. No individual video screens but its a direct flight and from Glasgow only 6 1/2 hours!!! From London you probably get more choice.

:P Well we have booked our flights!! My partner will be going over in April to hopefully start his job and get us an apartment! Then I'll be following on May 11th!! So excited. 9 weeks and counting!! Congratulations to all those who have received their COPR recently and to those still...

GOT OUR CPR!!!!!!! CAN'T BELIEVE HOW EXCITED I AM. It actually came last Wednesday but no one was in to sign for it, so as we were going on holiday on Thursday we had to stop by the post officve on the way out!! YEAH! So sorry I couldn't tell you all earlier!! XX :P :P :P XX

i was wondering the same, how long does it take after you send the photocopies of your passport page. I see if you hand it in to the office it takes 2 weeks. Is that the same for posting it back? I'm desperate to get it so we can book our flights.

CONGRATULATIONS!! I'm really happy for you.

May I suggest emailing them after a couple of days if you haven't received anything in the mail. I think it is standard to get a request for more photos. So if you have any from your previous application this will save you time! Really good news though!!

GREAT!!!

It changed to Decision Made. They said they'd send a letter but I didn't get anything (surprise surprise!) so I emailed and got an email copy of the letter back.

Just to let everyone know that my ECAS changed last monday and since I hadn't received anything in the mail from them I emailed them yesterday and I have got an email response today requesting the pages from my passport and my photos! Very excited. Shame I'm at work the next to days and it'll...
