Agree. Unless you hourly wage is extremely high you will need to work full-time. Full-time work doesn't even guarantee a good living.

Can a part time job be able to support a good living for a single person in toronto

No - it won't. It's an expensive city. Even having a full time job doesn't guarantee a good living.

Ok so what do you suggest for a single to do and for a family as well ,any other cities that you recommend? What do you advice
 
Seems pretty logical. Work full-time. If you have a family both parents can work. Even in smaller communities working part-time will only be possible with higher hourly wages. Not sure why you are planning on working part-time since to qualify for PR you are likely young.
 
So let’s look at this a different way and assume you work part time say 20 hours a week what wage would you be expecting in what type of job.

How much do you think you will pay in Toronto for a rental or share, utilities, transport and food. What is your definition of a good living given everyone has different ideas.

Maybe ask some students if they have a good living working part time.

Working part time was a temporary plan because i will be preparing for exams and need time to study thats all
 
Seems like are actually married so your spouse could work as well. You could also study in your home country and travel to take your exams. Not sure what the pass rates are in general or for the 1st attempt but know some international dentists must complete 2+ years of dental school. Would also discourage you from practicing in urban centres because there is a surplus of dentists as well as other medical professions like pharmacists. Actually shocked by the number of international dentists settling in Canada. At a certain point not sure how Canada can absorb all these dentists especially because many people are not being provided with insurance through their jobs and the fees are out of control. I am seeing many provinces start to discuss dental fee reform.

So in case if i will work full time in an odd job at a point will that be at least enough to cover the expenses for a single person?also how will that be for a family ?? If one is working full time and the exam other as a part time?
 
All depends on the hourly rate and where you live. If both people are close to minimum wage in the larger cities you may have to make sacrifices. Depends on so many things like whether you need childcare, what kind of job you get, how much savings you have, do you need a car. etc... Too hard for anyone to answer but you also have the added expense of paying for exams.
