Praise God from whom all blessings flow!
I landed yesterday by God's grace at about 4:30pm local time. It took me about 2 hours to get out of the airport:
a. 25 minutes in the line to see customs. Actual interaction was less than 2 minutes
b. 25 minutes in line to see the CBSA officer. Took less than 7 minutes to hear you're now a PR (No PoF asked)
c. About 15 minutes to get SIN card
d. About 20 minutes getting my luggage (someone had lugged it off the carousel)
e. Another 15 minutes trying to get about (to hand in declaration card)
f. Another 20 minutes to hand in goods to follow list
The officer at the Service Canada told me I was the person said I'm the second landing immigrant that day and it'd been full of students and other temporary workers.
Apparently students and other temporary workers go through the same flow so the queue was long since it's school peak time.
Help me thank God
Help me thank God.
Congrats on your safe landing Chymes and Papassi. I'm so happy for you.
I'll definitely holla once I get into Toronto. Thanks for the detailed information about the landing process. I'm taking a cue from you and rest a bit before I start any serious job search.
I'll definitely keep in touch for advice on which bank you chose and why, cable, phone and internet coy, etc.
Congrats once again bro, xls, chymes and everyone that has landed or is yet to land.
Amen @ Aroms, we get ready to start packing. We shall hear your good news soon.
For those waiting for pprs and pums, it will surely end in praise for you all in Jesus name, Amen
