Briefly, some observations on my first visits:
- They didn't want to stamp my B4 at airport, rather, I had to call to take an appointment. They also asked for Jewellery type,weight, purity, composition and value.
- Since we are going to stay for less than 3 months, we have been asked to make the MSP "health card" later on, especially as I will be heading to Ontario the next visit. Nevertheless, we have to wait again for 3 month till we receive our cards. (In BC, we wait the rest of the landing month plus two more months)
- BC is expensive. You can't survive long without a job.
- BC has a fabulous nature. People are Ok ( not so friendly but also not rude)
-Costco is a big cheap and nice shop to buy from in bulk.
- Medical insurance is necessary in the 3 month waiting period. Either pre-landing insurance (traveler insurance) or to purchase it from Canada. Check this for e.g http://www.bestquotetravelinsurance.ca/visitors-to-canada-insurance
- I'm still in BC for a while and I will keep updating you.
