Hi Guys,
First of all sorry for this very late posting.....
Finally I along with my family landed in Pearson Intl Airport on 2nd March.
We had a really bad journey as me and my 17 months old daughter got sick (Fever cough and cold) on the night we started form India and in Dubai we took her to a doctor (Luckily i had my visa and Hotel in Dubai from skywards) and then next day 14hr flight from DXB to YYZ was a nightmare as baby did not sleep even one hour. (She is still yet to recover fully from her cough and cold). Still thanks to the much co-operative and understanding Emirates staff.
Nevertheless we had a smooth landing in YYZ.
It goes as below.
We completed the Immigration and were directed to a another office to complete landing formalities. There we were asked if we had a local address and i said as in the CBSA Declaration card and he re-confirmed it. Then we were directed to an information desk, where we were given a bag and few forms and pamphlets and CCTB, SIN application form etc.
Later we went to the Baggage claim area and took Porter service as we were damn tired. Then on way out there were two Custom officials directing some ppl to the area where bags are opened and checked and I said i have B4 list and the lady said to the other Office "here is a guy perfectly done" and directed me to the custom area, I doubted for a moment but went along, and the officer there was really happy to see the filled in B4 list and the photos and said "you have done a good job, I can see you have done good homework" i said thanks to CanadaVisa forum. (Thank you capt Qorax) There he filled in the details in his system and stamped gold pics and gave me a receipt and there I am in my dream land into the cold and windy evening.!!!!!! ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D

Now I would like to thank all the seniors specially Qorax, Bijupv and many more who have helped me throughout my journey to this wonderful land.

I opened bank account with TD and me and my wife both are getting a credit card without any security deposits (as we have no any other products in Canada in our name). I advice everyone to open a bank account even before getting the mobile number, if you wish not to freeze $1000, as your credit card security deposit). We got our SIN cards two days before and today (after 3days) got confirmation that our Credit cards are dispatched, so morrow I would get mobile number too.
Now start the House search and the most important part, "THE JOB HUNT" wish me luck...
All the very best to every one in the waiting game.!!!!!!!
Do let me know if I can be of any assistance to any one....
Best Rgds

[bijupv007]

Thanx Biju

Any recommendations on homestays ?

I had seen some recommendations on this forum but since I have no idea which is a decent area to stay which is close to places where we need to complete formalities I have still not booked anything. An address/area name would definitely help.

Also to add on to my list of questions does it make since to open an account in Dubai before coming to Canada ?

Thanx so much

er2d2g

buddy

u can choose safehomestay in North York or studio 6 in Mississauga

u can open a bank a/c after landing its a one day job

Hi All,

First of all Soby many many congrats on ur landing and hope u and ur kids get well soon...and all the best


Guys I have made my landing 2 weeks back in Toronto (Canada) and trying to find a temporary/permanent accommodation for myself somewhere near Toronto downtown area(reason availability of more jobs in and around downtown)...as the prices are relatively too high so looking for someone who wouldn't mind sharing an apartment.Any new immigrant/new worker who's is single male/female and don't mind footing half the rent.If anyone interested please pm me your name and number and I will get back to you.

Captain Qorax and other senior members of the forum if u can please help me with some recruitment/employment agencies in Toronto (GTA) who especially deal in professionals from Hospitality and aviation industry as I am trying my level best to find one but hasn't come across who genuinely helps you in getting placed

Anything in this regard would be highly appreciated.

Thanks in advance to all

Yogi

Hi,
I have been reading all of ur posts since I got into this process of canada immigration.I submitted my application in march 2010.....in may 2010 I got a reply to submit all docs with language prof test results n whole forms to b filled in there again.....sent that in aug 2010.............till now my status has been "in process".
now on 27th feb 2012....I got a letter being asked to fill few new forms of background declaration and family information ,also they have asked me in same letter to submit police certifictes from abudhabi(I alrready sent PC when submitted docs in aug2010) n also fresh pics of my baby who was born after we submitted the docs.plus the permanent redidency fees.

on 3rd march2012......they have sent me a letter requesting

1,medicals (med forms included)
2,fees for residency
3,police certificates from abudhabi
4,my babys pics

I was abroad for 10 days n when I came back,I got both of letters.now m confused cuz should I replly to first or second letter.......cuz in both few things r similar.

secondly,mostly I have heard that Med req is a good milestone in this process..but y they have asked to fill few forms again?is it bcuz of sum prob in my initial docs?or is it bcuz of addition of a new family member in my family?but background decl is filled for >18yrs age...........

I have not used any of those short smart terms that I c in ur posts,cuz I m not so expert in using them but I need ur help as to know if sumone has the same experience,plz guide.n should I feel happy after 1 n half year wait.?

thanks.
best of luck.
