Hi all! It's been a while :) I'm back in the Philippines (grabe na talaga ang init, pati ang traffic haha)! Won't be back in Canada until August though :/ I miss the ease of transport back in BC, hindi na ako makaalis sa bahay these days haha

Btw, to those who want to open a bank account even before landing in Canada, you can do it online with Scotiabank. I wasn't able to do this because I only got my Student TRV 2 weeks before I landed, and I was already too late when I found out. You can check it out here: http://www.scotiabank.com/ca/en/0,,6194,00.html

Scotiabank is okay, I chose them for the Scene card :D (I love movies!) Although BMO has good deals with their SPC credit card, and if you like going to concerts, there are exclusive deals with TD.

Anyway, let me know if there's something I can help you with :)

Maganda rin sa scotiabank debit card ang unlimited transactions, sa TD 50 lang e. Bumalik din ako sa pinas last may after 8 months ng study, medyo weird ang feeling, pawis agad pag labas ng airport tapos reckless driving haha.

Hi everyone! iamvenus how are you doing there? Looks like you're well adjusted now:) anyway, I did your advise, placed all in a clear book, we arrived last night and everything went better than expected:) Well except for the long queue at immigration. The IO didn't ask anything, she's very accommodating. :)
Hi sis! Kaya pala you weren't replying na hehe. Btw, did you get your mmr done before you left?

Good day every all! Im new here and just like everyone, I would like to apply for Study Permit in Canada. Just habe some things that I need clarified as well po:

1. We already had medicals with SLEC but for our student visa application in Australia. To cut the story short, we were not granted due to insufficient funds. Would we still need to undergo another medical examination for our student permit application to Canada?

2. For the proof of funds, we currently have a peso bank account at UCPB, do we need to open a CAD account and transfer all our pesos there?

3. Can we also use properties which are under my wife's name as proof of funds? How about our parent's properties and business?

I hope somebody can attend to my questions po. I am waiting for my LO from my Uni and trying to beat the Sept intake deadline talaga e.

Thanks guys and goosluck sa lahat. We pray na lahat would get positive results!

I'm glad you're finally in Canada! Wooohooo! :) Adjusted in terms of transportation pa lang pero sa weather, NO. Hahaha! Buti nalang wala siyang tanong. Feeling ko kasi bago yung IO naghandle sa akin kasi tanong siya ng tanong sa katabi niya na IO about Co-Op, etc. Anyhow, I wish you well in.. Toronto ba? :)

hello! i think new medicals ang kailangan pero i'm not sure.. it's okay to use your peso bank account as long as active siya for the past four months at least and enough ung balance for the required proof of funds.. properties di ako masyado sure it's more of assurance that you're coming back to the philippines rather than as proof of funds eh..

I'm also trying for the Sept intake. :)

Thanks for the response po. Any idea if a back to back loan can be used? Can my Bro in law sponsor us as well ba? I spoke to him yesterday and he told us he is willing to help us with the accomodation.

Yes Toronto, weather here is humid, and the sun still shines at 8pm, really! What about in van city? You are in Vancouver right? In your study permit, was it stated there that you can work too? Anyway, I will pm you nlang about this:)
