Progress

With the immigration application, that is. I've booked the medical and paid the deposit. The examination is going to cost me $250, hopefully including postage of the results to the appropriate people (since I don't get given the results...), but it's booked and ready to be done. I've got no problems with the results - despite the odd bout of 'flu, I'm the healthiest I've been for a while, and there's nothing nasty lurking that I know of. Chest x-ray as well. They're going the whole hog...

I'm going to experiment with fingerprints later today, so I can get the police check sent off - it's cheaper if you provide prints - $103. *sighs* Looks like it's going to be a quiet New Year for me - can't afford to do anything once I pay all this off, with the bike service costing almost $250 as well... And my next pay is pretty much going entirely on the credit card, barring living expenses, since that's how I'm paying for all of this right now. I just wish that damn backpay would come though - we're still waiting on it from early September, I think. Stupid sheriffs, holding everything up. :P

Still, I keep telling myself, they wouldn't be asking me to lash out on all this stuff if I hadn't already qualified, and that was the stuff I was worried about, rather than the medical and police check. So hopefully this time next year, I'll be living in Canada.

*grin* You know, it will be a good thing when you move here. I need someone to keep me sane.

And who will keep me sane? *grins*

And don't come running to me when the authorities are after you, and you're living out of a semi on tins of tuna and stolen kegs of beer.

Hah! I have a friend who is going to Australia on an exchange program, and they're making her get a chest x-ray too..*g*

*crosses fingers for Rossi* :)

It's for signs of TB. Contagious and expensive and largely erradicated from most western countries due to innoculation. Too bad I can't get away with showing them the scar from that. ;)
