Saudi Arabia based Applicant

[rizwan150]

Hello Every body,
It's my pleasure to update you that i have recently received my immigrant visa under the FSWP .

I have few questions to the group members /seniors.

1.) I am prepare to plan for my Landing in Canada. Which air lines is better to select from Dammam to Calgary?
2.) Which Cargo service is better to select from Dammam to Calgary?
3.) How can i carry the POF with me for the group of 4 family members, what is the convenient way for the same in order to travel both out from Saudi Customs and arrival in Canadian port?
4.) Appreciating your valuable comments?

Congratulations for getting the visa...

1) Check Lufthansa, KLM, Turkish from Dammam. I got better flight option in Lufthansa so i booked in it. You can check yourself, Lufthansa and KLM keep on bringing new offers every now and then...
2) No Idea.
3) Make Bank Draft in your name of any amount which you can deposit there while opening account. It's the best and safest way. I am also going to land in coming month and will follow the same thing.

Dear Rizwan Bhai,
Regarding you response no. 4, I have a doubt . . I have heard that we have to close our bank accounts here in Saudi before we leave for final Exit. In such case, will the bank draft be still valid or not?

Yes, take the license history with you before you leave. It takes 5 mins.
It is not required, but it will help you bypassing G2 waiting period in Ontario and appear got G drive test immediately. I guess the same in Alberta, you will be on fast track to get Canadian license.

Regarding bank account, it is totally upto you if you want to close or not.
It has nothing to do with final exit.

1- You have to submit to VFS. There is no 'in-person' submission.
2- No. You can submit for everyone. However, during collection of our passports from VFS after visa issued, they told me to sign a page that I have collected passports of my family. That's it.
3- No fingerprints at all (for immigration visa). You can submit all passport alone.
