Six Months to Go

There is still six months to go but so much to do before we get on that plane to Canada. I have been sorting through the mountains of paperwork that needs to be done in order to leave Australia and get into Canada. Passports, visas, work permits, study permits, Federal Police clearances, health checks etc etc all need to be completed in a specific order.

You can't do much without passports so we have just spent a small fortune getting 6 applications in. The forms are a pain because you have to completely rewrite them if you make one small error.  I think I had to rewrite forms at least 5 times!! They are checked over very carefully and are often knocked back because of some minor error. We were given poor quality photos and had to get more before the Post Office would accept them. I got the last one lodged today. Once I get them back I will then apply for Visas and work permits.
