hi friends..........
sorry could not post yesterday.........
let me share my experiences......first of all my weight was overweight by almost 15 kgs had tough time pataying ground staff of jet airways at kolkata but they agreed.
what a thrill it was to to hear india winning world cup, we were at Delhi airport clearing immigration formalities.... will never forget this experience i was dying to see india batting but damn it , there was no TV at IGI airport in the waiting lounge.
We landed at Pearson Intnl airport at around 1 pm local time.......in the flight we were given declaration form to fill like hw much money u r bringing and things like that.... I told the officer there that i m on PRV and landing for the first time, the the officer asked for the declaration form and asked me hw much money , i was carrying and directed me towards immigration counter.
at the immigration counter i was behind 3 people so it took only 15 minutes for my time to come , at the counter i was greeted by beautiful chinese officer , she asked me to show COPR and passport and again asked me hw much money i was carrying she asked me to sign the copr form but warned me not the touch the borderm i was literally shivering thinking what if i accidently cross the border.... but it was ok
as i was about to get down to collect my baggage i was called bya canadian lady sitting at the desk near to the way to baggage counter and told me to collect the welcome kit.......(books, cds, bags etc)
this people are really very helpful..........
next i collected my baggage after paying 2 dollars for the trolley.........and the officer there directed me to CBSA conter...(the last formality) i was shocked to see at the counter that the officer was opening the bag and checking everything... i was scared coz i had brought medicine for my friend here almost 2 kgs..... but thank god my bag was not opened by them.. the officer there simply asked me hw much money i was carrying and in what form , he took out the form and started noting down cheque number and the cash............ but did not check the amount physically....regarding B4 form, i found they were not interested in that any ways i told them that i have the list the officer took that and stamped on it ....... and directed me to the exit.......
what i feeling it was , it was done in 45 minutes.........
got the sin number...... very simple process will open bank account today........
will share later
one more thing i was greeted warmly by the evening snow fall............
regards,
benjamin
