    Requirement for maintenance of residency

    Thank you very much for your answers. If I will enter next month , I will complete two years in Feb 2017 . which is before the expiry of my card in April 2017. Can I still face problems in renewing my PR card? Will they take my application for secondary review and take one year processing?

    Dentist Prices

    thanks Regina. I have not got it done yet. It was just an estimate he gave me. I will look for someone else for the cleaning. But I am surprised how professionals in medicine can behave like greedy businessmen.

    Rental issues

    No agreement. Everything is verbal. Property manager is not the landlord. Sits in an office in the building> What are the potential problems with this arrangement? If it could be something serious, I would get out. And Can I legally stop the postdated cheques I wrote?
