1 month !

[docetae]

Hello

I have been quite silent during last weeks, Anna and her son have arrived in Montreal since one month exactly.
Everything started bad.. I was late in airport 
Experience from immigration was about around 1h30 to go trough all procedure... I planned to be there one hour after the touch of the plane... They were out 35 minutes poje...

A lot of things has been done, I do not recognize our apartment, it seems that my wife other name is Mary Poppins.. My children are cleaning their bedroom, doing all that was difficult for them before.
We went trough all paperwork, we started equivalence for her diploma. Her Ukrainian master will be recognized as bachelor here.
She will start full time language course next month, 11 months to learn french. This is mandatory to find work here.

Her son has started special integration school. First day and another boy was waiting with her mother from Moldavia. They started to talk together, so he has already one friend here !
he enjoy a lot time with my children and my children like him a lot. We are already one family all together.

Everything can be reach from walking distance from where I live, so my wife is not stuck at home and can discover Montreal while I am at work.

Life together is better than I dreamed

docetae,

Congratulations. I hope you experience what I have with my wife going this route. It just keeps getting better with a few bumps along the way.

My mom explained to me one day that the home to the lady is like a "nest" that a bird builds. For us that meant changing the whole house,  a
process that is still going on. I admit, the home looks much better.

Good luck!

Congratulations.  I'm sure your wife will adjust to life in Montreal easily.
