We did our bank registration on day one after the 14 days quarantine ended and we used one of the numerous paper work they provided us that included our name and address and Bank name as a proof of address for the SIN application. It took us between 15 and 20 days for us to receive the SIN...

Ok got you. Super I am from the Caribbean too btw (Guadeloupe :-)). On another cain I saw people that submitted on 27th April and received their SIN in may 8th or so. Hopefully you should receive your number very soo too. Could you please keep us posted :-). Have a nice rest of your day and...

Nice thanks for sharing - Wich nationality are you ? So you used your foreign country ID card as secondary proof of ID? is your driver's permit from Canada? Did you use your driver's permit as proof of Canadian address then?

At the moment I have Copr letter foreign +passport + plus a letter from my new employer that happens to be in educational sector (with my Canadian address) and that I hope should meet the proof of address criteria. I feel that I should have another doc for secondary proof of ID (like you a...

Yes thank you so much I have just heard about Fizz too:-) I will definitely order a line first thing tomorrow!

Hey BonjourCA and all, Your experience and timeline are very hopeful thanks for sharing. Can you please confirm what did you submit for primary and secondary proof of ID and proof of address? I am personally a bit confused the instructions say that we need 2 different proof of ID (1 primary...

Hi guys, I am a bit confused the instructions say that we need 2 different proof of ID (1 primary and 1 secondary) + 1 proof of address. However, in our case (individuals that landed with a COPR letter and are waiting to receive their PR card); the valid primary proof of ID would be "both" the...

Wow that is very strict - I confirm that the experience we had in Toronto Ontario on 27th April was not this intense :-) Now we shall see ...We still have a week to go. We could still have someone knocking on our doors next week ...We are respecting the quarantine anyway so all good and of...

yes this is my understanding too :-)

Thanks ! We did not book any insurance coverage in the end understanding that Ontario was waiving the 3 months waiting period due to COVID. https://www.ontario.ca/page/apply-ohip-and-get-health-card It is on our list to further research on this and see what we need to get done. We hope we did...

It will go fine just stay positive and focus on the practical things for the trip ie : - have abundance of your favourite snacks: very few shops are opened at the airports so no much choices if you are fussy! - of course antibacterial gels :-) - plenty of anti bacterial wipes : since they are...

Thanks! So for the quarantine at London airport the supervisor said " do you have a place to stay there ? " We simply said "yes we do". When we (as everyone else) landed inToronto we were welcomed by police men very serious lol that said " welcome: Do you realise that you have to do 14 days...

Thanks! - It is required to provide a proof of address yes

Hey - just to confirm I managed to do my connection flight to Ottawa from Toronto. I ended up flying on 27th April because my 28th April flight was cancelled (last minute on 24th April) I flew with Air Canada from London Heathrow to Toronto. I did not have a connection flight at the time. Once...

I don't know if they are still opened since this all COVID 19 situation but I believe that UPS can allow you rent a proper home address. This can become handy especially until you get a permanent accommodation. You can receive your mails over there and give that proper "home address" when you do...

- Would anyone know if it is still possible to rent a car at the airport or if there should still be taxi/Uber able to pick us up at the airport to commute to our airB&B /hotel...? PS I am also googling car rental companies' websites...I just wonder whether some that I have recently landed have...

I don't know if this would work but initially my plan is to do online grocery shopping ...perhaps with Metro or another major supermaket brand. Maybe ordering takeaway meals until the grocery order is delivered. Again I don't know if this would work but this is what I have in mind so far.

That is a good point. If anyone knows for sure how I should be approahing this please let me know. If I need to self isolate in Toronto before reaching Ottawa I will need to arrange accommodation in Toronto not Ottawa ...I cannot take the risk to only wait to finding out once I land in...

Ok - thanks for getting back to me. I have managed to change my flight and extended the transit to 3 hours. Hopefully this will help in worst case scenario .. I will miss the flight and need to figure out next steps from then.

Me again - Do you you think they will let me board a second plane for Ottawa or they will ask me to do the isolation in Toronto. I will be heading to Ottawa but I will have a short transit (1 h) in Toronto.
