    You can raise a webform to ask them to amend your application, but in all likelihood they will send it back and you will just have to resubmit your application.

    There aren't that many job postings right now to be honest. So getting more than 50 is not easy. But thanks for the advice. I have emailed employers directly and also via LinkedIn. The success rate is quite low to be honest. I've maybe had one or two who responded.

    Thank you for your input. I've been contemplating moving to Toronto, but I am averse to doing that unless I have a job offer. Do you suggest I apply for Toronto jobs while I am still in Vancouver? The only issue is I would need to interview remotely and I'm not sure how well most employers deal...

    Thanks but I currently don't have a car or a local drivers licence which makes it difficult. I could rent a car for $60 per day but I'm not sure it's viable.

    I also just want to share my story which I hope helps someone else who is either in a similar situation or are thinking of moving to Canada right now. I gave up my job back home at the end of February (I gave two months' notice in December, so couldn't change my plans), sold my car and other...

    BC is a bit backwards when it comes to getting by without a PR card. For starters I can't get my service BC card, can only get a temporary health insurance letter, and can't get my driver's license. Maybe I should move to ON...

    Will anything actually happen if we complain on their website? Perhaps someone should go to the newspaper.

    For a Health Card you need your PR Card, but because of the situation you can phone them and get temporary coverage with COPR. Also, you can't use COPR at ICBC for the knowledge test or driver's license unfortunately. Only the large banks allow you to open an account with a passport and COPR

    I don't know if Ontario is different, but here in BC you can't for instance get a BC Drivers Licence, BC Services Card / Health Card without a PR Card. So the PR card is not only essential for travel but it is a vital form of identification. Also, several financial institutions won't help me...
