Dear Qorax and Senior Members..
Hopefully with the will of Almighty, i will be landing in Edmonton in March , just for giving the address of my relatives for dispatching the PR.
And then within one week i will come back to Dubai due to some commitments.
My question is , can i re settle myself in Toronto? What will be the procedure of getting the ONTARIO health card? as i will be already
having the health card received from Edmonton.
Please guide me.
Thanks.
Hi, You can resettle in Ontario if you wish.
As per the Ministry of Health and Long-Term Care website in the
"Am I eligible for OHIP right away or do I have to wait? section."
"If you are an eligible resident moving to Ontario from another part of Canada, the health insurance of your former province/territory may cover you during the waiting period."
You can find information on the Alberta Health Care Insurance Plan website in the " What if I move? " section.
"Moving from Alberta to another province or territory within Canada"
You are covered by the Alberta Health Care Insurance Plan (AHCIP) for the balance of the month in which you leave, and for the next two consecutive months. This ensures continuous coverage until you are eligible for health insurance in your new location."
