Hi domisuohappy,

You are a lot faster than me. You have got PPR already. I submitted in June but up to now, I have only sent police cert in Oct. No more news from HKVO.

hi Shanchu,
I think you almost got it once you submitted the Police cert to CIC. all you have to wait for couple months for CIC passport request if checking is clear. By the way, did you prepare for B4/B4a form ? and how you arrange the cargo/Logistics arrangement ? any idea so I can have reference on it.

Thanks... Ian

Hi Ian,

I haven't prepared B4 form or arrange any logistics. I am still figuring out what I need to prepare once the visa is issued.

Thanks for your reply. I want to make sure that I won't miss anything when I got the passport request. so far I know that I need to arrange the following items once passport (PR) is granted.

1) prepare to find the logistics company to move my clothes and personal belongings. and when is the best time ? before landing 1 month ?? ( not sure what is the total amount for it )
2) prepare the bank account (e.g banking global accounts in HKSC so it can wire trqansfer easily).
3) prepare the B4 for my belongings ( e.g ( goods to carry & goods to follow ) - take pictures for luxury items like watches and jewellery and etc... )

anythings or steps I miss !!

Hi Ian,

I think those are the things that we need to prepare before landing. You can take a look at the following thread. Very useful for preparing B4!
