"DUBAI APPLICANTS" **Let's Network & Get Connected**

[bestpal]

Friends I called BA office and it is confirmed 23 kgs Check-in and Hand baggage of 23 kgs max with size restrictions.

About BA it is absolutely correct that they give this weird combination i.e. 23 Check in Baggage and 23 kgs (again) as Hand Baggage.  

By the time you are through the Terminal hopping over at LHR airport, with the 23 kg bag to tow and the time constraints and (remember it is always via London) and the security barriers botheration (at least 10-12 times when you are required to remove your shoes, belts , all metallic items etc.Top it all with the forthcoming Olympic grill and security fears! Two things are for sure 1) You will end up having bulging biceps and 2) You will be dead tired and exhausted to have a sound sleep in the constricted space of a seat, until YYZ! LOL!

How do I know? My son endured all this with during his Christmas Dec-Dubai-return flights-- Stuttgart-LHR-Dubai-STG.

Still, Bon Voyage,

Dubai Translation.

Make sure translated copies accompany Notarized declaration about the genuineness of those translated copies.

better if you notarize the passport xeroxed copies.
Certificates must be notarized.

Hello friends, I received my stamped passports back in 5 weeks. Thank you everyone for help and support!
I have couple of doubts here:
1- We are a family of 4 persons. In the COPR of my wife, and under "Dependant(s) information", it is written : Have you any depandants other than those who listed below? then my name is mentioned. Is that correct?
2-Under COR, Egypt was stated not UAE. Is there is any problem?
3-Mr qorax suggests the 20/80 role for carrying funds and I was about to purchase travel checks or bank drafts" I don't know which of them you recommend?" but I read on the documents they sent me the following:" ..current bank statment, updated bank book, securities or negotiable instruments in beare form,etc"
Since I'm going to make offshore landing, I find the idea of bank statment more convenient but I still need more assurance from you especially Captain as I know he is not much supporting bank statments. I would like to know if anyone used them successfully?
Thank you and good luck for everyone waiting for PPR

Dear er2d2g

Hello ! Please do share your experience of CIIP sessnio. This would help us a lot as well.

Thanks

Hi ssinghdxb

I was a great session, They offer lots of advice on how to fit in our newly adopted country which we will call home in the near future. The session is divided into 2 parts
1. All day session divided into 3 parts
a. Background info on Canada. Understanding people,culture,provinces etc.
b. Basic skills for looking for a job, preparation for the process, language training etc.
c Interview process, workplace and job retention
2. Second session was a 2 hour one with my wife and me where we got a lot of online resource references

It was a great experience and I would recommend everyone who is planning to move permanently to attend the CIIP. Its funded by the government and the ACCC and they also have a link to lots of on ground partners who can assist you once you are in Canada.

2 things you should know before you attend the session is that they start by giving you the worst case scenario and help you build up to the point where you understand that 'too much is not enough' in terms of preparation before you make the final move and secondly they also give you an eye opener on why Canada is not just MTV ( Montreal,Toronto & Vancouver)

Hope this helps - they also have videos on the sessions and you can find some of them on the website I posted earlier
