Hello,
Everyone Flying from Pakistan has to have Polio Vaccination Certificate with him/Her as it compulsory.
The process to get polio vaccination in Pakistan to go abroad is quite simple, yet many of us end up misguided by various hospitals and personnel.

I got my polio certificate and it only took 20 minutes.

All you need to do is to go to the Agha khan Hospital (Or any Govt. Hospital in your City) , pay 100Rs (free in Govt. Hospitals) and show them your passport and ask them for vaccination, they will give you two drops of polio, ask you to fill a form, then they will stamp this form with the Government seal to make it official.

Sample :



Don't forget to take copies of your passport and N.I.C along with you in case they ask for it.

Regards,
Zam

Hi,
For all those who are waiting for their Passport back or want to have an idea of what they should be expecting after their Passport comes back from CHC ISB

you should check two things in your envelop.

1. Sticker of Immigration Visa on your Passport

Sample:


2.Confirmation of Permanent Residence (COPR) Documents

Sample:



Make Multiple copies of Both and of your passport's Picture page Before going to Airport as you may have to submit copies at local Passport Control Section of Pakistan or in Canada.

Hope you find this info Helpful

Regards,
Zam

Hi all,
When you Land in Canada for the First time , One of CBSA or Custom Officer will come to you and ask you few questions , see your COPR document and Visa, Give you your SIN (Social Insurance) number and ask you about the address where you will be residing so he/she can put it into Permanent Resident Card (PR) form so PR card can be mailed to you in 30 days on that address.

It usually take 5 to 10 minutes.

Be confident and keep smiling :)

Hope you find this info Helpful

Zam

HEC only attest the Bachelor or master level Degrees, while on the time of submission of those degrees they require original matric and intermediate (F.S.C) degrees to be submitted with them.
So until you have all those , you can get it attested by HEC
And Benefits of getting them attested is his degrees will be recognized internationally, also the Canadian Education assessment Agencies require HEC attested Degrees.
Hope it answered your questions

Zam
