Just popping in to say hi and answer a few PMs.
Things are ok here, got our SSNs and finally got Alberta Health this week (been fighting with it since we got our 1 year VRs, Calgary was seriously dropping the ball), got both my businesses going (web design and selling handmade soap), still waiting on PR cards (not that we need them, the COPRs have worked for everything so far). Kids are in school, and life is pretty good.
Remember that your immigration journey is a bump (a big one, but just a bump) in the road of life. It sucks to have your life on hold, but when you get to the other side of it, well, it's done, over with! Good luck everyone. PM me if you have questions, need added to the transfer spreadsheet, etc. I don't come to the forums anymore but I'm glad to help other who need advice.
