1. that shouldn't be a problemcooldoc80 said:Dear All
I plan to land in Toronto and stay for a month and come back , During my landing i intend to give a PR address in Edmonton of friends of us .
Also i Intend to come back to Edmonton after a couple of months as my wife would settle there to give birth ( Thanks to Leon , I already know she should stay for 6 /12 months )
My question are the following and I would be really grateful if somebody who is sure could answer
1- Is there a problem giving a PR address of Edmonton even if i don't intend to go to that city in the first landing ?
2- If i Don't apply for health card at Ontario , would it be possible to apply for Alberta health care upon our 2nd landing at edmonton and get insurance from first day ( this is really important as my wife would be at late pregnancy ) ??
or I should Waite for 3 months because i would be considered moving from TORONTO ?
3- Regarding SIN , do you advise I apply for it at toronto when i land or its better to postponed it till next visit when we settle permenantly in Edmonton and apply for health card with SIN together
4- If I open a bank account At TAD or SCoti at Toronto upon landing , would it be easy to change the address of my bank upon 2nd landing in Edmonton and get a ( BANKS STATEMENT with my Edmonton address on it right away ) ,,, or i would have to open a New account in Edmonton .
Thanks all for your Help , I couldnt make it to here without this wonderful forum
2. yes you can apply for the alberta health card upon second landing. you don't have to wait 3 months upon second landing - alberta provides coverage since the first day you move to the province
3.SIN has nothing to do with the province. it is provided by "service Canada". you can apply for it on your first landing or second landing - as you wish.
4. yes you can open a bank account in toronto and later update the bank with your new address in alberta upon second landing
