- Landed at Vancouver on 26th May,10. Residing at Burnaby and now looking for Job
Hi friends, With the grace of Almighty Waheguru i have landed at Vancouver on 26th evening. I was busy in the initial work so i couldnt share my experience so im sharing it now.
V (me, my wife and 2 yrs daughter) started our journey from Ludhiana to Delhi on 25th at 6PM. V reached at New delhi airport at about 5 AM. Our flight was at 8:15 AM. At Delhi airport, the immigration officer was very rude. He was matching our faces with picture pasted on passport very rudely. After submitting the paper to him v did check in to board on the plane. Cabin crew and staff of British Airways was on strike, but they had made good arrangements. Our flight was on time, it taked off exactly at 8:15AM and landed at Heathro Airport at 12:50PM (Local time). V were having 4 hours stay at Heathro airport. One of my relative is working at Heathro airport and after reaching there he was waiting for us near plane. V took some refreshment at airport and again boarded on the plane at 5:15 AM. At heathro airport they did our security check but that takes only 5 minutes to clear. V were having cream, hair gel, toothpaste, liquid syrup, etc in our hand bag. They didnt bothered for that. V got custom declaration form in the plane. That was very simple to fill. Our plane landed at Vancouver Internation airport at 6:45PM. That was the one of the great experience v had. At the airport v saw sign boards in Punjabi. One of the lady was standing before the custom counter and asking for the new immigrants. V went to her and she dirceted us to the CANN reception counter. At the reception the lady was speaking in Punjabi. She welcomed us to Canada and give us a bag of books related to the knowledge of Canada. She guide us about things to do at the airport and after. She directed us to the immigration officers counte and to my surprose the immigration officer(lady) was also speaking punjabi. She welcomed us in Punjabi and asked for the passport and landing papers. She asked only 3 questions, 1. Have u married with anyone else before. 2. Do u involved in any crime 3. How much money ru carrying. I was having TC of 17000 CAD and 3000 CAD as cash and the same was declared on the custom declaration form. After asking she asked us to sign the COPR and staple one copy of COPR to our passport. She told us that our PR card will reach at our address within 4 to 6 weeks. She didnt asked for the B4 or B4A. She returned our passports and i asked her what next. She smiled and told just take ur baggage, go ur home and take rest. We took our baggage and handed over the custom declaration form to the custom officer. He didnt ask a single question. My bro was waiting for us outside the airport and v reached at our home at Burnaby. Next day we were busy in attending the guestes at home. on 28th v went to the service canada office and applied for the SIN card. The process is very simple. The office staff is very co operative. At the service canada office u can take any tyoe of help, use computer, etc.
If u have laptop, using internet is very simple by using wi fi. Here many of the restaurant, malls, offices and homes are haivng wi-fi., so u can use it freely.
This is my landing experience. Now i have started finding job. I'll update the job experience later. U can ask anytype of question if u have. I'll try my level best to get ur confusion solved.
Thanx,
Jatinder Hundal
