    Missed call from Canadian authorities during self isolation

    I traveled by air, and no I wasn't asked that question. I'd had a CoPR dated before Mar 19 when I landed, and as per the regulations I am allowed to enter the country. There was a case of a visitor visa holder who was refused entry to Canada in front of me though.

    Gettin New SIN Number

    I wish you a happy landing :) A1: Ask them to do both. If you're headed to Ontario, then ServiceOntario will ask you to produce an original mailed copy of the bank statement in order to issue your OHIP card. Not sure about other provinces. A2: I'm curious to know in which page is that mentioned?

    Missed call from Canadian authorities during self isolation

    This happened to us a few days into our self-isolation period. They called each family member to check whether we were following the self-isolation regulations; however we missed picking-up the phone call for my child. They left a similar voice message, but they didn't call back, nevertheless in...

    Gettin New SIN Number

    Tuning-in to comment on this bit: depending on where you're staying, you can order your local SIM card online and you'll receive it by mail in a few days (2-4 days from personal experiences). At least Fizz (https://fizz.ca) provides that service; not sure about other mobile network operators.

    COPR and coronavirus

    Glad to hear that! I'm not sure of the owner's near-future plans though :) -- but you can still scout on AirBnB. You can contact any host before placing the reservation, and most of them answer promptly. Best of luck!

    COPR and coronavirus

    I landed on April 13 and currently staying in AirBnB for quarantine. I am all alone at the house. I contacted the owner before booking to clarify the situation to him, and he welcomed me and made a decision not to lease to anyone else during my quarantine. It's probably worth it to contact the...

    CoPR landing next week (Apr 14), can I self-isolate in AirBnB?

    Hi all, I got my CoPR on March 6th and booked my flight for Apr 14. I wonder what restrictions apply to the type of rental I need to book for my self-isolation period? Can I book in AirBnB or a hotel, or am I expected to stay with a family member? Thank you for your time.

Answer: If it is a multiple-entry visa and it has not expired, you can use it to enter Canada for both business and tourism. If it...
