with release of Operational Bulletin 251 - November 24, 2010 one would land in Alberta and then proceed to Vancouver by air/road. it is not advisable to land in a provice other than the one that nominates.

I went to U-hall and told them.."Ok guys I'm moving to Calgary and how much is the truck", I really don't remember the size but it wasn't a big one and with the rental, insurance, crossing the border fee it was almost 2K, also the have their numbers in te computer and I need to do the trip in 5 days or additional charges will apply for each extra day on the road, so plan B.

Plan B:

Call these guys from U-Pack and I rent a ReloCube, I draw on the floor of my kitchen with masking tape the internal sizes of the cube and start piling boxes on it, this way I know exactly how much I can fit on it, anything else won't come, so mainly boxes and no furniture.
The Relocube was on the shipping company, this is cheap than if you want the relocube deliver at your house, after filling the relocube and put the locks on it I just sign and forget about it, I pick up my stuff in Calgary and everybody was happy.
The cost was:
1 Relocube $1426
Canada Customs Admin Fee $60
Storage in Transit 30 days $95 (This is because I didn't know how long it will take to find a roof)
U-Pack Website discount $-25.

Hope these helps!

Peace!
if you dont have much stuff to move and are moving in summer it could be cheaper to buy a flat bed trailer from garage sale and tow it with a hitch on your car provided your car is having enough horse power to pull the load.

I am able to login the ecas using my client id and the status is "IN PROCESS". It changed today morning as it was not recognizing me at all till last night.

How much time will it take to finally get the Medical/AOR?

Any idea?
