    Why do these tenants just keep on bending over? Have they never heard of the Landlord & Tenant Board (or its equivalent in BC)? It's somewhat ammusing (and weird, at the same time) how a lot of these people never got taken advantage of back in the homeland but get taken for a ride in the new...

    $1k to file. Upto $10k (and sometimes more) if there's a full hearing at the Federal Court. Usually though the file starts moving the moment you file for mandamus. So you'll be out $1k in all likelihood. I remember Steven Meurrens was charging $1k to file some time back. You can represent and...

    Does Australia's system penalize you for age like Canada does?

    Ontario photo ID

    They can't cancel another country's DL. It's a weird requirement to give up even your foreign DL and very inconcenient for newcommers who will be traveling back and forth between Canada and their homeland and don't have the time to apply for a Canadian DL. Pretty much incentivizes lying.

    Internship during scheduled break, Any problems in PGWP?

    You're fine. There are students out there working 2 jobs full-time during breaks. Nothing to worry about, what you're doing is allowed after all.

    When I meant by "emergency" I meant true life or death - i.e. if the patient isn't treated properly within minutes he'll either die or will lead a very impaired life. Heart attacks, strokes, car accidents etc. The article's about a guy getting a bad fracture while paying hockey. He'd be tended...

    Indian healthcare really lacks in emergency care. Most of it is because there's no such thing as paramedics in India. Just untrained staff sitting in the ambulance. The insurance in India sucks too - true health insurance doesn't exist in India. It's just hospital-stay insurance and a lot of...

    You've said this before but I'll say it again - it is different. Massively different. There's private healthcare & private insurance as well in all these countries though and most middle-class folks (and above) there have private insurance on top of the usual public healthcare. So the long...

    Study Permit inland application - pathway class enrolled before landing

    With the online course there's definitely a chance the VO could refuse your inland app on grounds that you are ineligible to apply for a study permit under R215 because it was online and a part of it was completed before you even stepped foot in Canada. Although R215(1)(f)(iii) does't specify...

    Study Permit inland application - pathway class enrolled before landing

    Was the pre-req course online? I don't get why your consultant wants you to repeat it. Option 1 has a major chance of refusal given your age and as you've already cleared the biggest hurdle from a visa-required country - getting into Canada - I don't see Option 1 being a good choice. But I...

    Study visa for minor after visitor visa refusal

    I don't know why people don't read the info on the official site before finalizing their application: https://www.canada.ca/en/immigration-refugees-citizenship/services/study-canada/study-permit/prepare/minor-children.html Clearly says under the heading "Outside of Canada" that "Minor children...

    Offer letter revoked

    Well said. I don't know why students (Indian students, in particular) are so deferential to their agents and so afraid of them.

    It's funny how that is seen as networking when white Canadians do it but nepotism when non-white immigrants do it.

    Does IRCC have access to fingerprints database in european countries?

    @Pamela Landy They have access to databases of other Five Eyes countries - USA, UK, Australia, and New Zealand. They also have access to Interpol and Europol's databases. They also can do a simple Google search and see what comes up for your name (old news articles and such, for e.g.)...

    Can an Indian passport holder visiting USA (On B2 VISA) apply for Canadian tourist visa from USA and get it?

    I personally think it's unlikely you'll get a rejection for a 2 year old child. There's a good chance it'll be processed quickly (Can+ promisses in a few days and even without Can+ the average time for visit visas applied from within USA is 29 days) but there's no absolute guarantee. The call...

    Did you look at Kijiji? Also, join a bunch of relevant Facebook groups (for e.g. Indians in Canada - if you're Indian) and post on those groups as well.
