    Gettin New SIN Number

    I went to the one on college street first thing in the morning. Can't comment on how busy it at other times. Went to Scotiabank as it was the only one that I could get an in-person appointment with, with relative ease as they have live chat on their website. Others wanted to have a phone...

    Hello, yes I got SIN by just going to a Service Canada Centre. I didn't need proof of address, just took copr and passport. Whole thing was straight forward and took 10 minutes.

    Latest Travel Restrictions 10/July/2020 : To finalize your permanent residence application but not settle here yet

    Not on the way back. You check in, go through security, as per usual. Then board your flight. That's it.

    Gettin New SIN Number

    I never got a call back. So went to a Service Canada Centre instead without an appointment. Got SIN in 20 minutes without proof of address. Couple of things to note though if others are thinking of doing something similar. The SCC, unlike the Canadian Government, do not count the day you...

    COPR and coronavirus

    Still in quarantine! not long to go now. Not really - make sure the place you are in has a decent wifi connection - the place I am in doesn't which is a bit irritating. Maybe best to check the food deliveries too if you are using those. There are a lot of option, it can be quite confusing. If...

    Track your PR card timeline and processing times here

    Hello, I landed last week, 2 days before my CoPR expiry. I logged into my CIC account today and nothing has changed. Under 'Documents' it says Documents Expired. Is this normal? Also, I have tried linking PR card application to account and also checking the status on another CIC page, each time...

    After landing - updates / changes / pr card checking

    Hoping someone can help. I recently landed in Canada and had my CoPR stamped and signed. I am wondering what happens, if anything, after this. I logged in to my CIC profile and it says under Documents - Documents Expired (I arrived in Canada 2 days before my CoPR expiry). Is this anything to be...

Entered in quarantine address and all accurate info except, on...

    Cell phone suggestions

    Ok thanks. Any reason for this though? The only other way I can think of getting some credit history is using a Canadian credit card back home which will add more expense onto every purchases with nothing to show for it, and it would mean not using my Amex card as much, meaning not as many air...

    COPR and coronavirus

    Hey, so connecting flight from the UK was completely full in 2 rows of 2. The flight from Amsterdam was about half full, maybe a bit more. No one was sitting in a full row of 3, there was either 2 or 1 person in each. It was relatively well spread out to begin with but with quite a few empty...

    COPR and coronavirus

    Hi there, arrived last week. They didn't ask, just asked for quarantine plan and permanent address / address for PR card. I had a printout for the quarantine address (an airbnb confirmation) and a printout of my permanent address (my relatives address - just in large letters on a word doc) and...
