    We are getting our medical/interview photos done tomorrow, do we need to go to somewhere specific or will most places be able to do them? I have the requirements and not sure how different they are to our passport photos?

    Of course we will all hang around and chat with you on here. You were most helpful on the other forum with my Colorado questions. Maybe we'll have a OC2015 reunion sometime and we can all meet properly?

    Great to hear from you and I'm glad you are having a great time. We were only in Canada 3 weeks when we did our big trip but loved it. The Rockies are beautiful as is driving from Jasper to Banff. Something my brain was having trouble with was the packaging on food in French and English...

    Regarding the Police Checks, National is a much better idea. We had to go to our local Police Station to get the documents certified and the form completed/signed by them and it was time consuming. The National check is all online last time I looked.

    Thanks for the advice, I would have made a mistake and not allowed enough time. Fortunately, our plane arrives early morning so we will have plenty of time.

    Can anyone advise how long to allow for POE? Our POE is Honolulu and I need to book a flight to the Big Island after we enter. I was thinking about 3 hours for the flight in case we get held up. When we entered with our B1/B2 Visa it was quick, however there is more involved for immigration.

    Blondie, I'm glad you asked that question because I was going to. There's a chance I can stay on my current contract in the US for a while which would be good due to the much higher rates I'm on now. I was wondering about the speed of processing DS-260 forms, if there was a higher number of...

    That's no so bad, enjoy! I've looked up their website a few times and not ordered anything cause I know how cheap it is in the US.

    You are not going to be able to afford the airfares to move to the US, that must have cost you a fortune!!

    You have probably already tried Graham crackers to make smores. We liked the cheese in the can on biscuits but it's not for everyone.

    Congratulations, where were you going again? I can't believe you can just fly out so soon, you have obviously planned everything and disposed of all of your stuff? It's taking me 12 months of planning to move.
