PR cards arrived to us in Utah!

Today (12/28/2009), we received our Canadian PR cards in hand. It was mailed from Calgary on December 23, 2009 via UPS Express, but the package got delayed due to "Export Hold", whatever that is. This was made possible by my good friend, P. S. in New York and his relative, R. D., in Alberta. I would like to thank both of you from the bottom of my heart for doing this for me (if you are reading this message).

The PR cards and other documents (SIN, Health, Bank) arrived to my friend's relatives address in Calgary without any issues even though there was a small error on the zip code (one alphabet was typed wrong, should have been T, but was written P). He mailed everything together to me in the U.S.

We landed on Nov 15 and PR cards for the wife and kids arrived to Calgary on Dec 14 and mine arrived to Calgary on Dec 21. My card was mailed by the office a week later than rest of the family, but I have no idea why. The cards were mailed from Sydney, NS. It feels great to have the cards in our hands. I feel very fortunate and free. Now, I need to start looking for a job in Alberta.

Happy New Year 2010 to all of you!
