Hi,

I am planning to land in Toronto ,Do we need to authenticate DL from Dubai Ministry of foreign affairs? But its not mentioned in the below steps which i got from UAE embassy page in Ottawa ( link : http://www.uae-embassy.ae/Embassies/ca/Content/1184)

Please clarify the all the steps ,what we need to do before moving to Canada for DL.

Few days back i issued the DL experience letter from Dubai RTA.

VALIDATION LETTER FOR UAE DRIVING LICENSE



A driver’s license validation can be requested by customers who currently hold a valid U.A.E. based driver’s license and wish to fast-track the process of obtaining a valid Canadian driver’s license. A validation letter attested by the Embassy of the United Arab Emirates will provide the Ministry of Transport in Canada proof of the applicants’ driving history, whereby the period between obtaining a G1 and a G license can be shortened considerably.

Please follow these guidelines when applying for a Driver’s License Validation.

1) Obtain a validation letter/experience letter from the same Traffic Department in the United Arab Emirates that issued the driver’s license originally.

(for example, if the license was issued in Abu Dhabi, the validation letter must be obtained from the Abu Dhabi Traffic Department).

2) Submit the original validation/experience letter, along with the original valid driver’s license and the processing fee to the United Arab Emirates Embassy in Ottawa for attestation.

United Arab Emirates Embassy

125 Boteler Street

Ottawa, ON

K1N 0A4

Attn: Consular Section



Note: If the name of the applicant on the driver’s license does not match the name on the passport, a clear passport copy must also be provided with the documents.

The Embassy ONLY accepts money order, certified cheque or bank draft issued in Canada, made payable to: UAE EMBASSY-OTTAWA

I know it's probably a stupid question, but

What is Soft Landing?

I know it's probably a stupid question, but

What is Soft Landing?

That is when you land to finish your "Landing Process", and then return to where you came from. Essentially you finish the landing process but do not settle permanently. You then return later when you are better suited.

You can go back anytime you want as long as you maintain your "Residency Obligation". i.e. 730 days in any rolling 5 year period. This is particularly important when you want to renew your PR Card, which is valid for 5 years.

As an example, you land on January 1, 2016. Your 5 year PR Validity starts then (not 100% sure on this PR Card Validity may start from issue date. Seniors can confirm).
If you left immediately on the 1st, after completing your landing formality, you can come back to Canada before 1 Jan 2020, and then stay in Canada for the remaining period of validity on your PR Card. Any later, and you may be reported for not being able to meet your Residency Obligation. Please note that in any case, you will not be denied entry to Canada.

In case you do enter after 1 Jan 2020, you will not be able to renew your PR Card till you meet the RO again (i.e. meet the 730 day residence).

Without a valid PR Card, you will not be able to board a commercial transport to enter Canada.

Note: Your PR cards validity is not the same as your PR. What this means is that If your PR card expires, it does not mean you have lost permanent resident status. (See link below)

Hey Hot2Cold, I think you meant 1 Jan 2019. 730 means 2 years.

Without a valid PR Card, you will not be able to board a commercial transport to enter Canada.

I stand corrected. It's 2019.

Whenever you enter Canada, you must be able to complete 730 days before your PR Card expires.
