CORP will allow OP to board the plane to Canada. OP also should also qualify for "Transit without visa" program, if he is traveling through Vancouver airport on the way to the US.

He has COPR.

OP will not need a Canadian transit visa, as he would not go through Canadian immigration. He can go directly to US customs after he disembark from his flight.

Passengers on international flights to US connecting through Vancouver do not need to clear Canadian customs and immigration. I suggest you go to US for your vacation first and then come to Vancouver for your landing.

You are right, OP will miss a lot of listing, however, beggar can’t be choosy. If OP wants to do the search himself, he would have to wait until he is in Canada. With a hot rental market and no credit history, it could take 2 to 3 months to find a place. At the mean time they will have to stay...

Your budget of $2,500 is in line of the Richmond rental market. Since you do not have Canadian credit history and reference, it can be difficult to rent from a private rental. I would suggest you engage a rental agency to assist you. Alternately, you can rent through Airbnb. You can look at...

Intention cannot be enforced. People make up stories all the time. Just read postings on this forum, there are plenty people return to home country after landing.

Unfortunately, there are many people that when they get PR approval, they only do a soft landing and then go back to home country to live. These people do not help grow Canadian economy.

Since you are a Canadian, you can just come back to Canada to live, there is no formality. You will have to apply to join the provincial health plan. Depends on where you want to reside, there might be a waiting period before health benefit kicks in. You may also qualify for OAS, you should...

If you cancel your MSP, you need to complete a wait period before your benefits can be renewed. Just inform MSP you will be absent temporary, MSP will provide coverage for up to 2 years.

Use the date you moved to BC while you are on OWP.

Oh! that is a problem, I don't think there is much you can do but wait for AOR. Is your MSP also going to expire in October?

I renewed my DL 2 months ago. ICBC accepted my BC Service Card and a credit card as IDs. Perhaps you should try renewing your DL at a different center.

The OP also needs the PR Card to obtain health care coverage. I doubt the Ministry of Health will accept an expired CORP form years ago as a proof of eligibility.
