hi everyone!
just wanna share my landing experience... ive been here for a week now..
from Mla- HK- Toronto ( cathay Pacific) , Mla- Hk= 6am, went there NAIA 1=12:30am, i thought pwedeng magpa check in maaga, like sa PAL na intl. flight na you could check in kahit 10 hrs. before, pero hindi pala... check in started like 3:15/ 3:30, so antay lang talaga... check in was ok, although i have to transfer some stuffs kasi, ang isang luggage 15, ang isa 25kg, so transfer lang... after that went to customs, ang haba ng pila, ok nmn after that, until toronto, all my flights were on time. thank God.
in Toronto, 1st you'll go to customs,then they'll look at the disembarkation card given at the airport,i declared i've carried 11K+ CAD, customs only asked again if this is my 1st time in canada/1st time immigrant,how much i brought,if ive got things to ff., then i was forwarded to the immigration section, the line was long btw in customs & immig, i was asked the same thing, & was told that my PR card will be mailed in the address after 6-8 wks.. then forwarded to service canada section, was given books & infos. on canada, then went to get my luggage, when i was about to exit, the customs on the exit checked again my disembarkation card, & said since i've carried 11K+, i should go another room, i went there, actually there are alot of people in there too, went to the available customs officer,he asked me again, and said to fill up the e67 form i think, not sure, basta a sample was given during PDOS/ COA, so i told him, i already pre-filled that, he even said that it was complete & very good, and when he saw my b4 form, he said,its not needed, and needed only if you have goods to follow, i didnt argue, just thank him & exited, he was actually very good & accomodating to me.. there's really no need to worry if you carry more than 10K, d naman sila nag ask / papers to show where you got your funds...
a day after my arrival, went to apply SIN + opened a bank acct, OHIP after 3 months pa naman... ive started applying yesterday.. waiting for that, hope ill be employed soon.. coz important may Canadian experience ka.. kahit ano, para next mag apply kana, you have reference na to put with regards to your Canadian experience... that's all i have to share... God bless sa lahat na aalis..
