Hello, I have an urgent work related travel to the US in mid April. My PR card will be expired by then, and in process of renewal (however I can't count on it to be completed by mid April). I plan thus to drive, using my car, to the US, and back to Canada. I was under the impression that...

Hello, My mother will come in Canada in March. I'd have some questions about OHIP: When to apply? From what I understood one has to stay 153 in the first 183 days in Ontario. Can she apply, for example on day 1, if she plans 153 days in the next 183 days? What happens if one stays outside...

Hello, I got invited to apply for PGP this year. I haven't applied yet, but will be in Canada when I'll apply. I am a PR, who travels a lot for work related purposes (I can get letters from both my department chair, and the receiving institution), including internationally, for some ~3 months...

Hello, from your experiences, what is the timeline between submitting the PGP application and receiving the PCC requests? How much time is generally given to provide such PCC? All I could find about PCC for PGP is something like "PCC are not requested at the time of the application"... Thanks!

Hello, I got invited to sponsor my parents this year. Haven't submitted yet. I'd wish to ask about police certificates required for my parents: they were born in China, and lived there until early 30s, and visited several times after (but none of these visits is 6+ months long) they lived in...
