So I landed on May 2nd. My husband and our baby-girl came with me. We traveled to Calgary via Toronto where we did the landing. We had 3hrs 45min until the flight to Calgary. The whole process took around 1,5hrs from the moment of touching down in Toronto to proceeding to our gate. All 3 of us completed the same declaration. At the Immigration Office area there was a long line up, but thankfully it was moving very fast. The only questions the officer asked me was whether I was convicted or not, whether I have any money to declare, and if I have any items of mine coming in after. As the answers were NO, we had no problems going through customs. They didn't ask to present any baggage item lists nor open our suitcases. Just took our declaration form.
So quick and easy. As you have your CORP, they process you super fast and are very friendly. It happened so fast I didn't manage to realise that it is finally over. I can finally live and establish myself, and be with my hubby and our kids here in Canada. Unbelievable!
;D ;D
This forum is magical! I wouldn't be able to complete the application as perfectly as I did, so nothing had to be resubmitted or added, if not for this forum! No words can explain how thankful I am to all of you that help each other! You basically help people get their lives back and reunite families! We truly are in all this together!
Thank you soooooo much! I hope everyone gets his papers done very soon!
Love! Take care!
