Hi All, I 'landed' in Vancouver on 12th September but had to return to Hong Kong after 2 weeks to sort out everything here for my final move. I therefore don't have my PR card. I understand that I have to apply for a PRTD in order to get back into Canada. Is this correct or can I travel back...

Hi all, quick question for everyone, would a base salary of $80-90,000 be enough to live on for a family of four (only one salary earner). Please don't include rent or mortgage in your view thanks

Hi there, my wife is a Canadian citizen as well, I believe it helps if you come from a visa free country, have a stable background and can prove you earn decent money. In turn I will love to Canada earn money and pay lots of tax. Perfect scenario

At least you'll be closer to family, I've heard UAE can be a very difficult place to stay if you're not emirati and don't have a job. they are particularly good at swiftly moving people along

Grea! good luck!

I'm a bit lucky, my wife is still with me and we'll move to Canada together

Good luck!

Up to him to pursue that one, that's his gig. I don't know enough about international law to comment. But when you're China is on your doorstep making plays for what the sea around you, my thoughts are not to offend the man running the country that is basically protecting you. Anyway, not...

Fair enough, honestly, there's so much back and forth on this topics I've kind of lost where it is. But I commend you all for making my lunch hour more interesting. Oh out of interest, why did you not pass your immigration interview?

Have you got any other offers and do you need to work? The answer then becomes pretty simple. Have a look at some of the recruitment web sites and they will have salary surveys, these aren't by any means spot on but it will give you a general idea. What type of banking are you in retail...

Can I ask a question, I don't want to make a similar mistake. Someone pointed out that among the OP's ramblings some of it could be construed as racist and worth reporting to a moderator. For the life of me I couldn't see which parts were racist. Could someone point them out for me please? Thanks

Why don't you get a job in the US?

Well all I can say is that this is probably the most entertaining thread I've read here so far. What amuses me even more is that the OP has disappeared and left everyone else to argue away. Can't help but wonder if that was the original intention, but either way a thoroughly distracting topic...

Just and FYI and anyone else who is doing a 'soft landing', I spoke to the CBSA and they said it is fine for me to 'land' from an immigration point of view but from a customs perspective I can come in as a visitor. When I finally move (hopefully some point next year) then I can enter from a...

Two lovely places in the world, good luck with the move, it's hard to be apart form loved ones

I was kind of afraid this might happen, the curse of double checking to hear something different. How long does it take to get an exit permit. My view has always been to over prepare for eventualities especially with government departments, better off getting the exit permit rather than not...

Well depending on what type of visa you're applying for then I'd wait. In the meantime why not reach out to come companies direct, recruiters, job boards and cope out the market. Ask the experts if your qualifications are transferable

Excellent and where are you coming from and where are you going to?

Sounds like an excellent adventure

I had no idea how it worked, guess I was lucky, they told me it was going to Ottawa because of my British passport, I even contacted the Canadian Consulate in Hong Kong once and they said it had nothing to do with them until the end and passed me back to Ottawa. I've been out of the UK for 10...
