WOW!!! So many updates to read up.... Congratulations to all with recent and not so recent updates. And my prayers for all those waiting to receive MRs, PPRs,pick up mails. God will sustain you through this waiting period.

We landed in Calgary via Ethiopia-Toronto- Calgary route. The flight was smooth but so long. Canada is indeed far. Landing formalities went well. The IO asked for how much funds I had on me, to which I replied 800 USD cash and XXXX amount in my bank account in my home country. He then went ahead for my proof of the said amount and I handed over to him the GTBank official statement of my account. He didn't even look at the balance, as l had thought he would scrutinize the statement. And that was it.
However, we missed our connecting flight to Calgary on Air Canada but we were promptly rebooked for the next available flight at no cost.
SIN registration, accomodation,medical insurance registration,bank account , school for the children have all been sorted. Looking forward to a "sleep-in" week end.
Praying that next week will bring more good news to everyone of us.
Thank God for this forum and God bless all of us

I say amen to your prayers. Thank you. A Yoruba song by Yinka Ayefele came to mind to sing to you, paraphrased.... "Very very soon,your joy shall come, very very soon, we will rejoice with you...." Just keep the faith. It won't be long.

My route was quite long cos I got a fairly good deal and didn't have transit visas for US which could have been shorter and cheap as well . I have sent you a PM.

My people just a few lines for the landing gist matter

Left naija with a BA flight via Heathrow London, got to lagos a day earlier from warri and logged at Allen to be close to the airport on the 5th so that to prevent stories that touch concerning traffic in lagos.

Got to the airport quite earlier around 3.30pm as check in time starts 5.30pm and I was no2 on the queue but the standing and waiting at MM1 no easy pulped with the fact that I was travelling with kids.

On getting to the airport trust naija authourities with their way, an immigration officer saw my plenty luggage and was like oga na only I get all these luggage meaning na run I De so and I won't return and that I must see them b4 I could pass u know, good thing I had got some change with me naim I knack the guy 5h make e for no lost and he hailed oga mi and made way for us.

When checking in started due to the fact I got there early I was quick with it and did some more sorting along with immigrations, customs el ta.

Cos of my quick finger with them I wasn't asked to show anything I was carrying we eventually took off 11.20pm and git to Heathrow airport around 6am next day 6th May.

My people na there wait come start we were at Heathrow till around 7.20pm when we eventually left for YYC airport calgary. We got to calgary 8.50pm local time my people the sun that hour of the day tie wrapper at almost 9pm. God is wonderful indeed and the weather at the time was 9 deg very nice and not too cold.

Passing through the customs and the immigrations at calgary airport was a breeze all that was asked was whether I have excess cash with me and what and what am carrying and when I gave answers, the nice blank immigration Canadian by name Ebanks just signed my CoPR form endorsed our pp and gave them back to me and said welcome to Canada that am now a permanent residence entitled to all right with the exemption of voting. All my ten bags were passed with evening touching them.

On getting to the arrival lounge my host were already waiting for us to receive us and many thanks to trevvy that came all the way from NW calgary to help with the luggage.

That's the gist my people all that are still waiting for one update or the other don't worry God gat u cos He won't fail on His word concerning your matters.

One love my people and looking forward to seeing and welcoming you guys.

Omo like dis I Don be senior too no be small thing life na turn by turn.

Shallom and it will always end in praise.
