This is a niche segment and definetely growing. The local pool for it is less competitive than some other banking segments. I think your prospects would be good with a PR.

It depends. CSC is good for roles like financial advisor or FSR. But most specialized roles like insurance sales, mutual funds sales etc have their own licencing certificates. It wouldnt hurt to have it just in case but I don’t know if it will help you a lot. MBA or CPA/CA seems way more valuable.

I live close to the western border of Scarborough and we'd much rather live here than downtown but thats me. I have never felt unsafe so far but there are some dodgy areas in Scarborough, it is a big area after all. That said, I fail to see the benefit of renting all the way up in markham...

Let me weigh in here. We brought our car seat from home, good thing we did because we have used it immediately upon landing in the rental car and used it since. We were pulled over for minor speeding once, with me having the baby in my lap cos she was having a major meltdown. The officer gave us...

There is a new immigrant mortgage scheme at most big banks but they require at least 35% downpayment. If you can come up with that, I think most new immigrants that are potentially employable are good to go.

I am also from a country with little rules and was in the same situation. Did not take any lessons but practiced the test route and the rules over and over. I talked to ppl that have taken the test at the center and they also gave me tips. All of that I shared with my husband, who also took 2...

Yes, thats what we did as well. Still, they asked for a co-signor initially. Worked hard to convince them we would be decent and good tenants. So they waived that requirement. We only paid first and last months rent and gave them thenumber of the person in charge at the bank to call and confirm...

Great reply by Buletruck. Just a few additions 1) They dont take away your license in every province. We kept our licenses in Ontario but the road test was so fully booked we had to wait a long time to take it. Side note, if you wanna avoid being pulled over in traffic, do not exceed the posted...

Are you putting in the expiry date on the temporary certificate? You need to put in the expiry date of your licence, which is five years from the issue date. It doesnt show on the certificate. Just use the same day and month of the issue date and use 2021 as the year.

Thank you for the tips. If possible, could u also give a brief description of the sponsoring process? What docs did u need, how much time it took, etc? Would be very helpful. Thanks

AFAIK, She cant give birth in canada as she is not a PR but is in the process atm. They automatically deferred our application once I declared I was pregnant. Its a different process if you are an unlanded PR and get pregnant before landing. Then you are either looking at giving birth in Canada...

Even if you get yourmedical done, they will wait for the baby's delivery and medical to issue the visa. Thats what happened with me as I was in the same situation. The baby will be addedto your application, hence the process willbe put onhold until you provide baby's documents and medical. You...

You might wanna check out the career map in CSI (Canadian securities institute) website, it gives you a list of both required and recommended coruses/certificates in the finance sector: You should also check from CIC website if your designation is regulated or not, because if it is, you must...

Im very curious about this too as I am in the same boat. If we dont provide new photos during entry, will the PR cards be delayed?

We did the medical for our newborn in july 2015 and got the passport request in early october, so more or less the same.

Could you pls provide an update once you get an answer? It would be really helpful to me as I might end up in a similar situation and I would like to know my options before I decide what to do.

If you are taking a thy flight from Istanbul, in most likelihood it will be delayed as most THY flights are. However, 1 hour is a very short time to rush through istanbul airport which is huge. I dont think u will go thru passport check but if u will, you will definetely take more than one hour...
