when can I use OHIP
«

Hey guys, I got very mixed information from different sites on the net, so I was just wondering..I landed on May 9th and in June I was out of Canada for a week. I`m supposed to be eligible for OHIP in August but in September I`m going away for 28 days, so it`s gonna be 35 days away within the first 6 months of my stay in Ontario. Now can I consider the date of my return from my vacation in June the date of my settlement in Ontario?
One of the sites was saying that I have to wait the first 153 days since my arrival to use the health card, is this true?

No, you don't have to wait 153 days. Whenever they give you the card, you can start using it.
