The Appearance..

Finally! After 6 months off waiting... the letter for a request to appear finally came. It was scheduled for March 05, 2009 at 877 Expo Blvd. Vancouver.

LITTLE KIMI

K decided to go with Kimi and me for the appearance. We drove all the way to Beatty St.(where the parking spaces were located),early for our 12:30 appointment. We had lunch at the nearby cafe called Cafe des Art...

The wait for our turn at the Immigration was long. Kimi was well behaved all through afternoon. She walked back and forth, happy with the huge space the room has to offer for her to explore. Almost 80% of the people attending was Filipino. I learned that it was no use to go there early because there was a number on the right upper hand of the letter which would indicate when you will get your turn. Ours was #39 and #40...It was well past 2:30pm when it was finally our turn. It was a casual meeting with the interviewer asking us whether the paper they gave us earlier contained all the right information then they gave us a list of numbers to call with regards to other concerns like Care card, SIN... The whole meeting was only around 10mins... Atleast, it was finally done and over with... :)


Now, I can go to the next step... The waiting is almost over. I can finally look into driving...working... and finally, gooing home to Manila for a vacation at the end of the year... YEY!
