I will need to see a General Physician when I get to Montreal. I feel like I'm coming down with a cold. I know that I am not covered as a new settler for a period. Does anybody know roughly how much it would cost just for a consultation?

I contacted an apartment agent in Montreal about a place for $550 rent per month and asked how much the deposit is? In the UK, its usually 1.5 months. He told me that there are no deposits in Quebec. Is this true? Can somebody verify this please?

Does anybody know of any good healthcare plans I can opt for when I arrive in Quebec? I know that I am not covered for the first three months...

Hi ladies and gents, I am going to visit Service Canada office in Montreal the day after I arrive to get my SIN number so that I can work. I am going in at 0830, but I have another appointment at 10.30. Based on your experience (has anybody used this branch?) is 1 and a half hours enough to...

On the B4 form, do I have to list the items I have packed and am bringing in my suitcase? such as toiletries, lap top, clothes, iPod, shoes…..

Thank you for your curt response.

Thank you so much for this, but I notice on form B4A it asks for name of importer, I know this may sound like a silly simple question, is that me or any removal company I use such as Anglo Pacific?

I'm filling out a B4 form for personal effects that I plan to bring to Canada later on after my arrival as a settler, but there doesn't appear to be enough room on the form to include every single item. Can I list the rest on a separate sheet of paper and affix it to the form? Does anybody have...

Oh I've got enough as far as the Federal level is concerned. I was just a bit cheesed off that the lawyer (I think he was a trainee) gave me the wrong figure of $11115 instead of $4000, as Ive literally torn my arsehole saving that up (not literally). On the otherhand, maybe he did me a big...

I recently asked my immigration lawyers about funds needed upon arrival top Canada. He sent me a link to a Federal Skilled Worker visa page which stated that I needed in excess of CA$11,150 as a single male. Then I saw that for the Quebec Skilled Worker Program a significantly less figure of...

Thank you! Gardas, Giprizlisin? :)

You're right to get an equivalency test done, however, for what its worth, I think its sad that they are making you do this with your experience and education. I wish you good luck in wsorting it out.

I would alert them to their mistake and send it back, perhaps ask for a refund in the fees if you paid for the card. Wrong info can be a big problem when travelling abroad using the card, say to the US. I hope they sort it out for you soon. Good luck.

Thank you.

Thank you.

Thanks for the advice regarding TD Bank. As for why I want to open an account.... kindly, mind your own business.

As I would like to occasionally buy certain ethnic food items of my heritage and mingle with the community, I wonder if anybody could tell me where is the Turkish-Cypriot community in Canada mainly based?

Is it possible to open a Canadian bank account before arriving in Canada? I'm based in the UK. If it can be done, which banks offer this facility.

Thank you Hasher. I've got a few interviews since my last post. I'm a native English speaker from Britain. I've been told to convert my CELTA to TESL. However, I do take your point that I should perhaps widen my choices within Canada to include other jobs. [Hg How's your dad? Did you meet him...

I appreciate your time in writing to me. I am a Tefl teacher and wish to remain in my position. I don't wish to move to another profession or country. There are personal reasons too why I cannot move outside of Canada which I do not wish to reveal on a public forum. So can you trust me when I...
