Hi,

We are planning to make a landing as PR in Canada in October, thats like mid of first term for Elementary schools,

i have 3 kids, Grade 1 ,2 and KG2.

we are going to land in Toronto or Hamilton,

but we dont have a residence yet.

my questions are:

1- Can I register and admit my kitds into school in mid of first term, or we do have to wait for the winter term ?

2- I still dont have a permenenat address, we might at start rent short term rental place until we settle, would the school accept the temporarily address.?

3- is the student marks book for previous year a must for registration.

thank you

No, don't wait. It would be best to have a permanent address but it is what it is. Usually they want to see some documents from the previous school. Contact the school board for help as they usually have an office to deal with international arrivals.

You will need more than an AirBnB address. Once you have leased something permanently so you know where you will be living then you should register. You don’t need to be living in the home yet but that is a big region. Where you are staying temporarily is unlikely to be your permanent location or even school board. Previous school records are not needed for young children.

Yes he will be admitted at any point except if it is right before the end of term when it would make no sense. You’ll also need to provide immunization records.
