Thank you for the well wishes everyone, we landed safely... Lots of turbulence though and that stressed me out a bit. It's really cold here, my daughter and i are still adjusting; jetlagged that's why i'm wide awake now at 5am.

God bless!
Hi Ruby,

Wow! We're so happy for you, finally you landed safe and you're with your husband and family already.
I just wanna ask, where'd you bought your ticket and how much? I'm trying to look for cheap fare, coz when I finally got my visa, I wanna fly immediately, lol.

Thank you and goodluck to your new life there.

God Bless!

2nd week of feb
hi guys share ko lang sa inyo ung landing experience ko lat Feb. 7, 2011.

Monday morning flight ko via JAL / Air Canda. I arrived NAIA arround 5am in the morning then go to the security and paid P1620 for the travel tax then 6am nagbukas ung window ng JAL then binigyan ako ng boarding pass at checked-in ko ung 2 bagahe ko (ung bagahe ko is 21 kilos each pero sa airport 20 and 19.5 kilos lang, ok na un kesa namn magbabayad pa ng excess baggage). then lumabas muna ako para magpaalam sa family ko na nag-aantay sa labas dalawang beses ako lumabas at buti na lang mabati ung lady guard at naawa cguro sa akin kasi maga ang mata ko kakaiyak sa kalungkutan hehe. then bayad ng terminal fee na P750 at diretso sa immigration then maaga pa namn para sa boarding time kaya nag-ikot ikot muna ako dun sa duty free then around 8:15am punta na ako dun sa gate para magwait.8:40am start na ng boarding at dun nakakaiyak na lalo na ng nagtake off na ung eroplano. ok namn ung service ng JAL at very polite ng mga flight attendant. maaga kami ng 15 minutes sa arrival namin sa japan, ok namn mga tao sa japan at may mga guide para alam mo kung san ka pupunta, from terminal 2 lumipat kami ng terminal 1. then punta ako sa desk ng Air Canada ok namn ung tao dun kaso medyo hirap intindihin ung english na pero very accomodating. 6:40pm Japan time nagboard na kami for the 7:00pm flight going to vancouver (ayos din namn service ng air canada) then maaga kami ng 20 minutes sa arrival sa vancouver, nakita ko rin ung international date line na from night naging day hehe. tapos nun diretso na ako sa immigration at sabi welcome to canada, binigyan ako ng welcome kit, calendar at magazine then pila ako dun sa immigration tanong lang kung nakulong ka na. nademy ka na ba before, o nakapunta ka na sa canada bfore at saka magkano dala mong pera (di namn tinignan) tapos nun pirma dun sa COPR at sinabi nung immigration officer na 6-8 weeks makukuha ko ung PR card ko. tapos punta na ako sa carousel 23 at kinuha ung bagahe ko at diretso sa domestic flight, checked-in ulit ng bagahe at akyat sa 4th floor then diretso na sa security ulit tapos sa gate 41,medyo mahaba haba ung nilakad ko. tapos un flight na papunta dito sa winnipeg pagdatin ko gabi na at sinalubong na agad ng tita ko at pinsan at sabi welcome to canada. the next day kumuha na ako ng SIN at health card saka ng-open na rin ako ng account, then ngaun kukuha pa ako ng drivers license dito.

Hi, Guys:

I have some questions and hope anyone to answer.

I got AINP PNP in Dec 2009 and sent application to CIC in March 2010, i also did Med in July 2010. In around Dec 2010, i got a letter to ask me send immigration landing fee. My questions are:

1. Usually when they will tell you that your file would be transfered to local? It's an email or a regular mail?

2. If they ask for passport request, they will send me email or regular mail?

I have never got any emails from them yet. and i am wondering if they input an wrong email address in my file

thanks

We have the same time line, just so you know. We received our paspport request Jan 21 2011. Still waiting for our passport to be returned to us. To answer your questios:

1. They will tell you when they will transfer your file to a consulate. In our case we received an email on the day that they transferred the file to LA consulate.

2. The requst was sent via email.

All correspondence from CIC was done thru email, in our case.

I hope this help.

My suggestion is to apply for extension of your work permit. My husband was in the same situation back in November and he sent in the work permit extension. He was on implied status when the PPR arrived and he landed as an immigrant in January 5. By February he received a refund of his WP extension fee from Vegreville.
