Hello my dear Forum Members

Yesterday, we did our landing at Toronto Airport and things when smooth.
The Customs Border Officers were so polite and cooperative.

No issue with POF!!!

I thanks God for all these blessings..

Thank you everyone for your support as that made my process way more easier..

God bless us all...

SFD
Hi SFD,

What do you mean no problem with POF? They did not inspect your documents
showing your POF?

Thanks and good luck!

Hello Jotash,

Nope, I told them how much I was carrying with me (Cash), and that's it. Didn't have to show money or any other proof statement... I brought all in cash... USD$ and CAD$...

Hi SFD,

I thought the amount we stated in the application form will be checked thoroughly with the cash
we have on hand the day we enter the port.

Thank you very much and enjoy your stay in Toronto.

GOD Bless your family.

Welcome to Canada my friend. All the best for your life ahead here.
Hey Fariza,

Nice to hear from you!!! Thank you...

I feel the notion of getting the best from Canada... You all are part of the best..... Believe me, I learned a lot in this forum. Each one of us means a lot to me since I am still learning by reading so many posts made.

Not everything is rosy in Canada, but no country is!!! 8). I have lived in different countries and get used to in a short matter of time.

I will suggest to those who are on their way to Canada, to make sure their child learn at least, the basic of English... So, they don't have such a hard time...

I love Canada

Thanks Abehola,

Yes, God is great! Although there will be difficulties and hard times, God is always protecting us.

I have spent lots of time with my children to give them the confidence that everything is going to be fine.
Went to see place, Went to the Air Show and the Festival over the weekend. It was awesome!

Best of all to you as well.

Nope, I think one should avoid Square One. It's too crowded!!! I just went over there to check for the driver license... But, definitively, I am going to other place.. I really don't like to go places where I have to wait all day.

On sunday, I went to the Walmart on Mavis Rd. which is less crowded and more accessible to me.

Greetings

SFD
