    Do you have a family member who is a Canadian permanent resident

    Hi everyone, Just received PPR lately and planning to move to Canada soon. Wondering if any of you used Planning for Canada Program to help you settle down there. On its website it states it's a "free pre-arrival service funded by the Government of Canada". I am hoping this program could...
