Yes. I've noticed his "calmness" which I thought would have ended once he got the visa in hand and it was real and visible. BAH. IM FIRE UP! come oooonnnn!

health insurance question

Does he need to be here when u add him to ur health plan?
Heath insurance all depends on where you live. In Ontario he has to wait 3 months to get his ohip card. You can apply for it when he lands though. If you have benefits through work you can add him to that though. My husband is on mine at work and he isn't even here yet.

Good Morning JAMFAM!!

Someone posted a while back (may have been Cdn Trini) that they opted to get travel insurance for their spouse which was for 3 months and then the Ontario OHIP would kick in. I am planning on getting him the travel health insurance bc am a worrier like that and as soon as I know he is coming I will add him to my health benefits at work as well.

My husband got that too. those papers you need to land in Canada but they are saying it is not the VISA so you need your passport and the COPR to be able to land in Canada and cannot use that paper to travel anywhere else.
