I think you can take General for some types of work and for immigration, but you'd need Academic if you plan to study or for jobs in healthcare. I'm not really sure of the specifics, but I am SURE you need Academic if you plan to work as a nurse and I am SURE you only need General if you are...

Thanks for that info, BCguy. Are RCAs a different job-title entirely, or are they just "live-in caregivers" who happen to be working in centers/hospitals instead of homes? Can you give me a NOC number or title?

Hmmm... so the medical is the speedbump... When the medical comes, does it specify what hospitals are accredited? Can't I have the medical from some Canadian hospital?

Hello and thanks for the prompt reply PMM. 1. I can do that from Canada and just mail the forms to a relative in the Philippines to submit 2. Maybe I can do a Medical before leaving for Canada? How long before a medical "expires"? 3. I read that and it seems that it is more for employers...

Thanks for the reply, PMM. One squiggly little detail: Can I get somebody from my home country to apply for me (basically just do paperwork and send it to the embassy) even if I am still in Canada? Or should I be in the Philippines while this application is going on? If, for instance, I get...

If I come to Canada on a Visitor's Visa, and then find an employer willing to give me a full time job contract, can I file for a TWP from within Canada? Or can I apply for TWP at my home country's visa office while I am still in Canada?

bumping again...

For things like these, ACADEMIC IELTS is required. IIRC, General is only for plain-and-simple immigrants, the one where they require showmoney. breech, glad to see your application is moving. Congrats and good luck. PM sent too.

bailavida, like I said, your brother has to have 350 hours experience working in a Canadian hospital before he takes the CRNE.... that means he's already working in BC even before he takes the test. :) All the employer needs for them to hire him on an Interim Permit is that CRNBC says he's...

foreverwaiting, Since you are a PR visa holder (that is tourist visa, yes?), then do not worry. Go to Canada and find a job from within Canada. Your chances of finding a job when you're in Canada is better than just relying on online job postings.

That's what they call stay-in/in-house care-giver yes? No problem with me, any work (legal) is fine.

What is an RCA?

bump...

What is your work sir?

Haha... I guess that's another way of looking at it. Let me see if I get it straight: Is that right? What I really want is to NOT GO HOME TO THE PHILIPPINES anymore when I go to BC for my SEC assessment. It's not that I don't love my country, it's just that I cannot afford the airfare to be...

Thank you for the links. I did not know these organizations existed. You say that I can go to Canada on a Tourist Visa... am I allowed to work in Canada when I have a Tourist Visa?

Hello everyone! I am a Registered Nurse in the Philippines and I am planning to go to Canada. I currently have 12 months experience in the Operating Room and 3 months experience in the General Ward. I plan to apply for a Work Permit first since it is faster than immigration, then I plan to...
