Ugh, that really sucks.you have to make sure on a holidaymaker that you have 2,000 dollars i think so they know you don't need help financially.

You'll get there. The whole process if everything runs smoothly doesn't take long, only 2-3 weeks to find out if you can come to the UK or not and to have your passport stamped.

Good luck!

hmm I been wondering, what you did in terms of OHIP? did you cancel it or what do you do! I went to the ohip site but that was no help.

I called OHIP and they told me that my health coverage will be cancelled if i move away. Of course, i never reported it as long as i come home once in awhile and use it i guess. I know i'll be home at least every six months if not before.

If you have a holidaymaker, you are eligible for coverage in the UK. All you have to do is find a doctor that will take you on as a new patient and you will be ok for medical coverage if you need it here. Hope that helps.
