U need to check with abu dhabi driving license authority. Or check on this forum from abu dhabi guys
I applied for the G1 license and got it :)

Since I had taken an international license from Dubai for renting a car out, taking a Canadian license was not there in my plan. But when I saw the driving test center opposite to my residence, went there along with my passport and Dubai driving license which they checked and gave me an application to fill and a token number. My number was displayed at a counter where my vision was tested, a photo was taken and $ 125 had to be paid; then I was directed to a test room. I was not prepared, so asked them whether I can take the test next day, which they agreed.

I had taken some online practice and attended the test next day. Two sets of questions, 20 each; you need to score 16 per set. The second set is given only if you pass the first. It was quite easy and I got it :)

They did ask me whether I have a letter from the authorities, I said no; they said OK....

Guys this is an urgent request, Do we have to mentioned medicines on form b4, these are mostly over the counter medicine for which i dont have any doctor's prescription.
It is better to mention everything on B4. If you know what you are carrying, you can explain them if asked.
Mostly, they will not go through the line items

dear Rejis

nice explanation

which forms we need to prefill for accompanied good list: Form B4 or Form B4A

I dont have any goods to follow. is it required to take the pictures of all the ornamnets we weared ?

where we need to give our address for getting the PR card ?

pls advise
unni
Hi Unni,

I followed Captain's link as the bible

http://www.canadavisa.com/canada-immigration-discussion-board/-t36735.0.html

Funny part is, I went to Premiers, they had taken a printout of Captain's explanation, gave me and told me that everything is explained in that document :) Nice service?

Form B4 or B4A will not make much of difference. No problems if it is an excel sheet also...

Gold ornaments - It is better to take a photo and have the count and value in CAD. In my case, the immigration officer said he don't have time to go into details... This means, it depends on the officer whom you are meeting..

PR Card - You have to give the address of your friend or relative; not a hotel or temporary stay address. The PR card, SIN card etc will be mailed to you..
