If you have any questions about migrating to Canada and you have already gotten your UIC number, I'd like to encourage you to register with YMCA's Next Stop Canada.

NextStopCanada.ca is a great way to find out about life in Canada, how to prepare for your move, what you need to do before you leave your home country and how you can bring your belongings tax free when you land in Canada.

It is a CIC funded program to help people from allover the world who are in the process of coming to Canada or have done a short landing.

They focus on the needs of the entire family, youth, adults and elders; and though they are focused on Ontario, they are offering Canada wide resources.

They are a team of immigrants themselves who speak many different languages and want to share their insider knowledge which is extremely important to know before arriving in Canada. It can save you money, time and bring you on a clearer road to success.

These services are free, as the Canadian Government funds them especially for you!

Ask them everything you want to know! Contact them as many times as you need answers.

You can contact all the pre-arrival services funded by CIC, you have the right to use all of them for free. If you dont like a service , you may move on to the next one until you find a good fit for you.

You need one of these documents to register:

Medical Examination or Security request letter
Letter requesting for passport submission
IRCC invitation letter to obtain pre-arrival services
Canadian Permanent Resident Visa
Confirmation of Permanent Residence (COPR) letter

As I see it has been a year since last posts here, then here are some updates on the Next Stop Canada pre-arrival information and referral service of YMCA Greater Toronto Area. It was a successful year spent in helping newcomers in their future successful settlement in Canada. These activities included:
1. More than 1000 newcomers registered and used our services, which helped them to make their integration faster and smoother. Some highlights of newcomers' stories you may find in periodic newsletters of the Next Stop Canada: http://nextstopcanada.ca/newsletters/ . A new issue is coming soon.
2. The Next Stop Canada has delivered more than 25 webinars covering such essential topics as housing, employment, education, childcare, federal and provincial newcomer support programs, finance and banking, transportation and logistic.
3. In addition to developing settlement plans for newcomers, the Next Stop Canada also provides information support through such online tools as forum, live chat, e-mails, and mentoring programs.
4. Special focus of the program is youth pre-arrival information and referral support. Running on the peer-to-peer basis it is delivering by in-Canada youth mentors to their overseas newcomer friends.

To remind:
Next Stop Canada is home to two online pre-arrival programs (for adults and youth) delivered by the YMCA of Greater Toronto funded by Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada (IRCC). These programs offer free online services and support to those who have received approval from IRCC to come to Canada.

Next Stop Canada prepares you for immigration by providing you with meaningful personalized settlement information about Canada. With this knowledge you will be able to make more informed decisions prior to your arrival. We are dedicated to helping you adapt and integrate into Canadian society.
