    Best method (minimal loss) for transferring money to Canada?

    Hi, I also have TD accounts in both the USA and Canada. Does KnightsbridgeFX require the USD that you want to sell/convert to CAD to be in Canada? Or, is it possible to just send the USD to Knightsbridge directly from the TD Bank account in the US? I'd appreciate the input. I'm about to transfer...

    Exchanging US Driver's License with Ontario

    Hi, I know you can exchange your US driver's license with an Ontario one, but you have to surrender the US license. Is there a way to get around this and keep the US driver's license? Is it possible to apply for a new Ontario driver's license instead, so I don't have to surrender my US license...

    How do you import a car to Canada from the US?

    Hi, I did my soft landing and completed customs paperwork, but did not import my car. I did notify the Canadian customs that I'd be importing my car later. Has anyone ever done the same? Can you share your experience with importing a car from the US to Canada? As a new PR, did you have to pay...

    No address in Canada for PR-Card

    I've looked into this. IRCC asks you for a Canadian address on the PRTD application form... so it goes back to the same problem: no Canadian address.. I wonder if it is ok to leave it the Canadian address field blank when applying for a PRTD. Anyone has experience with PRTD applications...

    No address in Canada for PR-Card

    Congrats, vacquoy! Can you share if you have been able to solve the no-Canada-address issue? I have the same problem. I'm planning to do a soft landing in December, but I don't have a Canadian address for the PR card to be mailed to. I've looked into getting a PO Box and having the mail...

    PPR Stage: How do you send your passport to Canada from USA?

    YES! Problem solved. I went to two different UPS store and they both refused to sell me prepaid self-addressed envelopes to Canada, but I got around it by buying all the shipping labels online. Even better, UPS online was offering 40% discount for express shipping to Canada last week. Just go...

    Help needed: Education History

    What if the highest degree is not Canadian? Can I only include the degree I'm claiming points for? I only have an ECA for that one, a Master's from the US, but not my Bachelor's.

    To Decline or Not To Decline...

    Hi, Has anyone ever declined their ITA and got another one in the next draws before the entry profile is expired? I'm really thinking to decline my ITA because I've just realized that I might have entered a misleading information, but I'm wondering if this would be a foolish decision. I would...

    Marriage/Divorce Date

    Hi, Does anyone know if the Express Entry profile asks for the date of marriage and/or divorce? I'm trying to remember because I might have entered the wrong dates if they had asked. I received an ITA and the PR application asks for exact dates of marriage and divorce. I was pretty sure about...

    Are you automatically eligible to apply for a PR when you got an LMIA job offer?

    Or, do you have to work for a certain amount of time first before you can apply for PR? I assume the only way to apply for a skilled worker PR is through Express Entry, right? Thanks in advance!

    Is ECA necessary for degrees from the USA?

    I know, right?? I'm appalled at the fact that Canada doesn't recognize US degrees. But, I guess we're trying to get into their country, so they can do WHATEVER.... And also, I suspect this is just a way for the evaluation agencies to make money. ybjianada, why are you so angry? Relax, man.. Geez
