He's here!!!

Our landing story

Well after 17.5 months hubby is finally here. At one point we didn't think it was going to happen but with the strength of god and Jah it did. We talked in the morning and he was very nervous, scared and excited. We must have talked about 10 times. When he got to the airport his bags were overweight so he messaged in a panic and I told him it was okay. Just to take stuff out. My husband is a drummer and he had a drum for our daughter...he had to leave that behind and he was sad about it but he finally got his bags checked in. Once he was on the plane he called me and said "I'm so happy and I can't wait to see your beautiful face" yep....that's when the first set of years started. Everyone at work was so supportive and happy that it was finally happening. I was tracking his flight so I knew where he was the whole way and the excitement started to build. When there was about an hour left I called Nev....and she calmed me down. Thank you so very much for that!! My mom was coming to the airport so she picked our daughter up from daycare and came to meet me at work and then we were off. We got there about 630 and the flight was delayed!! So we went for a walk and the plane actually landed early. So we were waiting and waiting and waiting. There was a hold up with the luggage as hubby called to tell me. So I knew he was coming out soon. I made a welcome to Canada sign and Naylah and I were waiting. I finally saw him and I started to bawl! Naylah started laughing and saying hi. We hugged and kissed and Naylah wouldn't leave his side. He finally saw my mom....they have never met. He gave her a big hug, called her mom and then her tears started. We left the airport to go home and as soon as we walked outside hubby said "oh f*%k it's cold" I had to laugh. The drive home was good. Naylah was lauging the whole time. It was like they were never apart. Hubby was hungry so we stopped at KFC...why do they all want chicken when they get here??? We finally made it home and it was wonderful. He's here...that's all I kept thinking. It's now morning and Naylah hasn't left his side, my apartment smells like him and I'm on cloud nine!!

Thank you everyone for all of your support. Nev, Nini, Chickie, jamgirl, DG, ready and everyone else I missed

We are going to enjoy the day as a family and do some shopping and a lot of cuddling.

I pray that all of you that are still waiting get to feel what I am feeling soon. It's the most wonderful feeling in the world

Love you all and I will still be around! Xo

YAY! I'm so happy for you, you have been such a big help on this group and now he's finally here!! Congratulations and welcome to Canada Mr Sammy!!

Soooooooooooooo incredibly happy for you and your family, Sammy! :-*

Thanks for the calls and the texts over the last couple of weeks -- it has been pure joy riding out the end of your immigration journey with you.

Enjoy every single moment of the 'honeymoon' phase with your hubby -- it will be incredible for you to experience all of his 'firsts' in Canada! Even KFC! ha ha!

Welcome to Canada, Mr.Sammy! It's about time! :D

It really depends I think there have been a few people who have gotten ppr within about a week. And then there are some like me who sent in all docs and we are still waiting and its been 6 and half months. Hopefully its sooner than later but I dotn think there is a good time frame

Congrats sammystorm what a beautiful landing story. Gave me tears.

Was nice to read the last few weeks of great news of ppr and landing stories.
Gave me hope that kgs and post starting to move.

Also nice to see that I'm not the only one who at times feel like giving up and getting my life back.
I keep telling myself. Every day is a day closer.

My husband is also bringing his daughter to Canada. Do you think that can slow our process ? As I am sponsoring 2 ppl ?

Also our meds and pc have expired. Thinking should we be proactive and go ahead and redo all and send to pos or wait for them to contact us ? So confusing. Some day yes some say no?!
Last question. I want to confirm that my file is indeed in pos who can I contact ?

Thanks famjam. Hoping for more great news for us (famjam) next week.

Redo the PC for sure but hold on the meds bc they may be extended. Some recent ppl had to redo them yet others had them extended. Call CIC help centre to ask them if your file was transferred to POS from KGN due to work over flow. Once you know where your file is you can send the PC there with a cover letter.
