One more thing Dainty, will you be enrolling your girls in a Catholic School or Public School? Most of Canada has these two non private school board systems. If you want to enroll them in the Catholic School system, you'll have to provide their baptisimal certificate and if they aren't yet baptised, you can present your own until they get theirs done.

But please do not forget their immunization record - I wouldn't want them to have to get unessary needles. They wouldn't be too happy.

their school nurse here said they have a final vaccine to get which i already made an appointment to take them to kids klinic to get it done this week, but for choices of schools, not sure, they are currently attending a catholic school here, what u think could u advise me please as here u just choose a school based on the performing level of the school. yes they do have their baptismal certificate

OK perfect. Since the girls are already attending Catholic school, I think from a mom's perspective, it would be sound for them to continue their studies in the same system but that decision would be all up to you. Here is the link to both the school systems in your "to be" province.

As for the requirement of vaccine's, the school system here would adhere to what's required in Canada as it may be different from Jamaica.

Yes you're right, I believe you're referring to Child Tax benefits which is a monetary benefit that assist's families who fall in a certain income bracket. You would qualify as long as you're a resident of Manitoba. Here also is the link. You can read up!

It would be best to call them directly to find out if you qualify being a PR.

I really shouldn't complain. Sorry for my insensitivity JG. Here I am seeing my hubby every 4-8 weeks and poor you haven't seen yours since February and I'm complaining. Let me tell you, one thing you get here with our forum family is lots and lots of perspective. I'll be praying for you JG and try your best to enjoy your days despite what we're faced with ;D

No worries, I never took offense to ur comments. Everyone deals with this in a different way. Keeping busy is my recommendation. I believe it helps, if anything, time pass faster. Some things I do to pass time: Crochet, cross stitch, extreme coupon, Netflix, read books, auctions (selling my stuff; it makes room for hubby, and I make $$) and I work as much as I can. Also, I try as hard as I can to have some of a social life, even if its just catching up with friends on the phone or on facebook. I also made a room in my basement which I am still working on. I laid wood flooring and am finishing up the paint (bought some today )

Keeping positivity helps keep sanity

Hey JamGirl! It's wonderful how you keep the positivity and stay busy but focused. So happy to hear you took some time away and there's no where best but to spend it with family away from the hustle and bustle of the city. Envisioning the presence of your hubby as if he's already with you is sure to get you to the finish line in warp speed!!

Good evening ladies. I am back from JA feeling very much refreshed and renewed. LOL The separation at the airport was killer on me and him but that is a given. It was hot down there and then came here to the same hotness lol. Got the royal search when I came back into Toronto today. The man took everything out of both my suitcases and my carry on and even xrayed my laptop. Them not easy thats for sure! No news on his documents yet all we are able to get so far was his police check and the 8 passport pictures. Still waiting to hear back on the birth certificates and passports and then they can do the medicals. I figure it is better if they all go on the same day to do them then they will stay together(hopefully lol) I am thinking about another 3 weeks by the time I get the documents back in my hand. Am glad to read all the good things coming out of Kingston these days, it makes me feel better and hoping this process isn't too much longer. Blessings to all, missed chatting to you guys while I was gone!
