Mrs P give Mr P our best regards. You've heard it so many times, I'm sure you guys might be getting tired of it by now...but hold the faith. No matter if the dawn looks like it is delaying in arriving, it comes eventually. And when it does, it is bright and beautiful and the memory of the darkness fades until it is forgotten.

Here's a little Canada humour for everyone:

One day, Satan was out for a walk through Hell, making sure things were running smoothly. When he got to the Lake of Fire, he saw a man sitting by the lake, relaxing in a lawn chair, and not sweating or looking uncomfortable at all. Perplexed, Satan approached the man and asked:

"Young man, are you not hot or bothered by this heat?" The man replied, "Oh no, not at all. I lived in downtown Toronto and this weather is just like a typical July day in the city." Satan thought that this was not a good sign, so he rushed back to his office and turned up the heat in Hell another 100 degrees. Satisfied with himself, he again returned to the Lake of Fire to check on the young man.

When he got there, the man was showing a few beads of sweat, but that was all. Again Satan asked the Torontonian, "Are you hot and uncomfortable yet?" The young man looked up and said, "No, the temperature is just like a hot August day in Toronto. I'm coping it just fine."

Satan decided that he had to do something drastic to make this man's stay in Hell unpleasant. He went back to his office, turned the heat all the way down, and then turned up the air conditioning. The temperature in Hell quickly dropped well below zero. As he approached the Lake of Fire, he noticed that it was now frozen over. He also saw the Torontonian jumping up and down wildly, waving his arms and yelling into the air.

"This looks promising!" thought Satan. Coming closer, he finally made out what the man was shouting: "The Leafs have won the Stanley Cup! The Leafs have won the Stanley Cup!"

Thanks ladies.....I am (needless to say) very happy!!

CANUCK0469....thanks for the info...i think I will use the boundary bay POE

MRS PROPER...my meds expired in June...KGN called me June 15th to advise me, they sent the re-do forms (with my photos attached and form already filled in with my name, address, file number etc.

The doctor sent it straight to Trinidad from his office, Trinidad rec'd it on August 24th and i got the call today (sept 22) from KGN.

Please note that the time delay between the first call in June and when TT actually rec'd it had to do with post delays from Jamaica to Canada and the fact that I did not do the medical until a few weeks after i rec'd the re-do forms.

In actual fact, the timeline from when TT rec'd my medicals to when KGN called me was only 21 (working) days.

If you have any other questions please do not hestitate to ask

ohhh.

one other thing...I was told by IO to send the passport preferably with DHL, with a return prepaid airway bill inside.

I went to DHL and they don't do the prepaid anymore , as they are being taken over by a new company.

Which other courier service could i use, that KGN would not have an issue with?

Thanks

 

[CharlieD10]

Use any courier or express service that allows you to pre-pay for a return envelope. I don't think KG really cares so long as they are not stuck with the bill for the return of the passport.

Thanks Charlie!!

Well my dear proper, I can totally relate to what you are feeling. We waited a long time too. However, it's like a roller coaster...your going to have your ups and downs. You both have to encourage each other and keep each other smiling. I think you need to go there and visit. It will help you guys so much and it will get you through to the next while. I know you are concerned with time off but you only live once take advantage while you can! Don't worry about time off when he's here, he will get here and you will have time together. Best part will be coming home to him! Remember; stress = unwanted health issues. Stay strong, plan that trip and enjoy the time together you obviously need. Stay on here ppl will encourage you. It's so tough especially b/c it has been so long since you've seen each other. I've been fortunate. Immi doesn't get it, nor will they ever unless they too, go through what we do. Things in life that are worth waitng for and that take time and patience is what we most love and appreciate. Remember the love you have fgor each other some ppl never find in a lifetime so please hold onto that and push on through. You can do this just the same we all can. Sometimes we lose our way but ppl get you back on track day at a time. ;D

[Mrs Proper]

Good morning everyone!!!

Ked- seeing as we already have the hall booked for her party and a huge dinner planned no it won't be for her bday but it will prob be a week after.

Its been 5 weeks since I sent caips notes. They took the money out of my acct last friday so I'm wondering when I will receive them. I asked for them to be emailed so hopefully we get them today.

Come on KGN let's wrap this week off with a bang!!!!!

 

[CharlieD10]

Morning, morning, morning!

TGIF and all that, I am so glad to see the weekend! I know, some of us don't like it because KG gets to stay home all weekend, but look at it this way, that just means we could have good news on a Monday morning, and who doesn't like that?

I hope KG wraps up this week like a present and gives someone a really good reason to celebrate the weekend!

Have a great day all!

 

[Kedeisha]

oh nice MrsP I think she will be having an extra long bday a party and she gets to see daddy after she dont even have to wish for that on her candles, well she can wish for a super early xmas gift ;D

Hope everyone in the household feels better and in good spirit for her bday KGN can still do a PPR

 

[lostwithoutu]

im wondering if anyone can help with the letter needed when sponsoring a spouse with kids and what should be included and stuff

 

[Kedeisha]

morning LWU what letter are you talking about do you mean the form from the non acoompanying parent that needs to be completed saying they give permission for their child to migrate to Canada if so that can be found in the carribean region specific guide

You also need to submit custody arrangements showing that the spouse migrating with the kids have sole custody or the non migrating parent gives consent but as far as I know there is no letter that one writes just official legal binding document the government needs proof of

If that is not the letter please give a lil more idea of what the situation is

 

[nae-nae]

good morning everyone! TGIF!! although all the days are rolling into one for me lately and I can't seem to keep track of what day it is anymore lol

congrats MKD!! I hope your PP is returned swiftly so you can go ahead and flagpole. Keep us updated
