Dear Seniors,

My elder brother applied for Alberta driving permit in Edmonton. He has taken experience letter from RTA, while applying he was informed that he got to surrender his UAE driving licence to get Alberta's one as per rules.

He has to come back to Dubai for couple of months to arrange final departure with family,
and he would need UAE licence to move around. Pl suggest what should he do under these circumstances.
Let him explain his situation and they will understand but if not ....he can come back to dubai and apply for lost license after got report from any ploice station with 20 AED and then go to RTA and pay around 120AD and will get the license in same day

He can surrender the Toronto license and get the Edmonton one. You can drive for a few months on the G license. He cannot have both a Toronto and Edmonton at the same time. These are provincial matters and Canada is very strict that you take privileges only from the province you live in.

Dear QURAX

I am from India, residing right now in Saudi Arabia, I would like to go to canada.
I need to clarify some of my doubts.
I have never gone to Canada neither I have applied before.


  • Can I apply for the first time itself as a FSW for a permenant resident visa
Yes you can, no problem
Or
  • Do I need to visit canada before applying for PR VISA
No you don't
Or
  • Do I need to apply for a temporary resident visa and stay in Canada for few months then apply for PR VISA
No you don't

Usually as of my knowledge no country will provide you with a PR VISA as a new immigrant or to first time visitor, but still when I read CIC programs it confused me that its possible to apply for PR VISA , but CIC website doesn't state clearly that whether a person can apply for PR VISA who has never gone to Canada before.someone gave you wrong information

Will the canada Immigration issue PR VISA to the persons before they land?
Yes, you need a PR visa BEFORE you land

I am planning to prepare my application for FSW now.
Kindly let me know the exact thing. As you all are there, you might have got experience of all these stuff. Please follow advise given by Coolguy

you can go to any legal translation they will do it then you have to attest english version from the ministry of foreign affairs.
Thankyou for that...

So - do I attest the original arabic from ministry of foreign affairs, get a photo copy and attest that from ministry of foreign affairs...
and then get a translation and attest that also by ministry of foreign affairs? Is that correct or too much?

Since I need to give them a certified true copy of the original arabic version too...

Why is he even showing in his application that he has a UAE licence if he already has a Toronto licence which he can surrender?
