Hi guys. Hubby and I landed in July and we are both now back inUK. We got our SIN cards, exchanged our drivers licenses for Ontario ones, and have also received our PR cards.
SIN - 1 week, Drivers - 2 weeks, and PR 4 weeks. Luckily uncle lives there and mailed them to us.
We are moving permanently as from March 2010, with myself first to get a house to rent for us and our dog, and hubby arriving 26th March (dog flying in between!). The process took 2.5 years from September 2006 till passperts received 7th May this year. Boy it's been a long wait, but by golly it's a worthwhile one!
I would like to wish anyone who is thinking about emigrating to look at Canada first, as different provinces have different landscapes, jobs, etc, You may find that the one you first thought actually isn't the one for you!
For those who have applied, Good luck, and don't forget to keep saving, as there are so many hidden costs that, to be perfectly honest, you would never have thought about!
