Hi Guys,
Need expert opinion.
what is the shortest period of time you can stay when you enter Canada for the first time?
A week or two? or is it a month?

=> No restrictions. Just ensure that you could get the PR card, Health card in Canadian address
[/color=blue]
What are the necessary things that need to be done during the initial days?

=> Apply for PR card, Health Card, SIN
go through:
http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/newcomers/after-checklist.asp

Finally, what happens if you fail to stay 4 years out of 6 to get Ca Passport?
=> In that case you wont be eligible for the Citizenship application. But for the validity of PR card you must stay 730 days within 5 years according to the CIC guideline
Thanks in advance,

On different topic.

1> Can we take traveler check as our POF. If so which bank issue them?
2> Is it possible to buy dollar from bank without plane ticket booking?
3> Since we need to carry a lot of cash, is there any problem caused by this when buying dollars from the bank?

Those who are already landed or going to land please reply.
1. Yes you can take travelers cheque but you should check whether it is accepting in Canadian bank or not.
Previously, American Express travelers cheque I have used and fall in complexities at the time of exchanging.

2. You should have tickets if you want to buy dollars from bank. but you can buy it from any money exchange without buying tickets.

3. There is no problem at all. You can carry 5000USD per person. No issue.

extra dollars you can keep in different places to avoid risk. BD immigrant police may ask for it and demand bribes.

Travelers checque is expensive when you encash it.

2. You should have tickets if you want to buy dollars from bank. but you can buy it from any money exchange without buying tickets.

Now all money exchange ask for visa and PP copy.

3. There is no problem at all. You can carry 5000USD per person. No issue.

one adult person can carry 7k us$ or equivalent CA$ and for infant half, i mean 3.5k us$ in a year. so you can your full quota when you immigrate. [as of 2015 new cerculer]


extra dollars you can keep in different places to avoid risk. BD immigrant police may ask for it and demand bribes.

Lol. Wouldn't be surprised for the later. Now they only have few weeks left to take 25k refugees. Not to mention how LVO will be affected. This recent fiasco could affect us all. God help us all.
