Good morning, again! :) AliCat, LOVE that poem! Happy International Women's Day, everyone!

Just got back from having my PCC re-done. For those of you who are in the process of applying or re-doing, the good news is that the process has been updated and made somewhat easier.

1) You may now pay the fees at ANY Inland Revenue Collectorate island-wide. You need your Taxpayer Registration Number (TRN) and the fees, nothing else.

2) There are now 4 locations to have the fingerprinting done, so no more tripping to Kingston if you live out west, centrally or on the north coast! You may get the fingerprints done at:
  • Summit Police Station, St. James
  • May Pen Police Station, Clarendon
  • Pompano Bay, Area 2 Police Headquarters, Tower Isle, St. Mary
  • Technical Services Division, 34 Duke Street, Kingston

Remember that you need your passport, 2 passport-sized photos and your receipt to get the fingerprints done, and you have to collect the PCC from the same location.

hahahaaaa @ Charlie and Suki. I'm not applying for family sponsorship, my friend applied for FSW and I'm considering it as well and that's how I ended up on this site. I did a search for Kingston, Jamaica and this thread came up. I started out lurking in here to get an idea of how quickly KGN processes applications compared to other HC's. I didn't expect to get addicted to you guys in here..LOL, as I said before I like the vibes in here, I check every day to see what you guys are up to and what good news is around. :)

Happy Friday forum family and I hope everyone has an awesome weekend. Been a slow week for KG so wats up wi dat. Still lots of hours left today so lets get atter KG. Happy belated Womans day so had to wait to send this one-----

On their 50th anniversary, a wife found the negligee she wore on her wedding night and put it on

She went to her husband, a retired RCAF and asked, "Honey, do you remember this?"

He looked up from his newspaper and said "Yes dear, I do. You wore that same negligee the night
we were married."

She said, "Yes, that's right. Do you remember what you said to me that night?"

He nodded and said "Yes dear, I said, Oh baby, I'm going to suck the life out of those boobs and screw
your brains out.."

She giggled and said "That's exactly what you said.

So now it's fifty years later, and I'm in the same negligee What do you have to say tonight?"

He looked her up and down and said, " Mission Accomplished."

Afternoon!

I like my middle name, although I don't use it for anything. When I was born the idea was that my "pet name" would be the short-form of my middle name, unfortunately my brother had issues pronouncing it, made up his own pronunciation and it stuck. :p

Canuck, dunno what happened, KG warmed up and then cooled down. Hopefully they just went quiet to concentrate on some more files and soon we will see more updates.

Wishing everyone a great weekend!
