Hi, I'm a fairly young immigrant (22 years old) with less than five years of job experience on my resume. I'm quite sure I won't immediately get the same job I had back in the Philippines so I was just wondering if anybody working in retail has any tips for landing a job? I have zero retail...

Hi, I recently arrived back in Canada using a PRTD I got through H&C reasons. My PR Card already expired and my parents didn't get me an SIN before taking us back to the Philippines. I'm currently in the process of renewing my PR card but am unable to work since I can't get an SIN without my...

Hi! I just landed in Canada (again) yesterday using a PRTD I got through Humanitarian and Conpassionate reasons. However, the guy at immigration at the airport said that CIC could still reject my PR Card renewal if they think I don't meet the requirements? I don't get it. I already received a...

Hi, was just wondering if there's anyone out there who had some experience applying for a PR Card right after arriving with an R-1 PRTD. If I'd need any documents or if I can apply right away at all.

To all of those applying for a PRTD and looking for some advice or maybe just a glimmer of hope from this forum, I totally get you. So now I'm here to share my situation for future reference. I arrived when I was 16 and stayed for three weeks. I studied college back in my birth country...

Hi, I recently applied for a PRTD based on H&C grounds (removed when I was 16, returning at 21). I got my PRTD, which surprisingly didn't take as long as I thought it would, and am ready to go. Question now is....what do I bring? Do I have to bring my dad's medical documents? Other documents I...

I passed my H&C plea two weeks ago for my PRTD and I passed some medical documents. Problem is, doctor appointment slips aren't really a thing here and med prescriptions are taken by the pharmacists when you buy. The most I can get are medical certificates from my dad and my grandfather's...
