    New PR in Canada and looking to make friends / network ?

    I moved to Toronto last september as a PR and haven't been able to find genuine friends to share experiences. I am a biologist. Would be happy to network with fellow permanent residents who are already in Toronto.

    Funds to be shown on arrival

    Yes, I thought the same about bank statement from home country but not sure if it this approach works. Although not as cash, immigration might be keen to know if I have enough funds ( eg. Demand draft, traveller's cheque ). Really need to clarify this before I land there.

    Funds to be shown on arrival

    Hi All, I'd be glad to clarify if I should take the entire $13.5K ( fund requirement 1 person ) with me while I travel to Canada or can I take just around 5K and explain to the immigration office at airport that I'll transfer the rest later from my home country account ? Thanks

    *** Any BIOLOGISTS (NOC 2121 ) here ? ********

    Hi guys, just an update, PR visa has been granted. I thought I'd update the info in the thread so that queries pertaining to work experience as a student can be answered. Lucky to have the officer consider my paid graduate study as work experience.

    JOB Bank validation error

    Based on a couple more comments from people who have received ITA, it looks like once a candidate has been picked up from the pool the profile number cant be revalidated. Strange! I received AOR on Jan 20th and didnt bother to use job bank until now when I noticed the error. Maybe this is how it...

    Very Bad news

    Thats true, i guess your points are determined at the time of application ( ITA , or the latest being AOR). I think losing a job in June 2016 should not affect an application submitted in January 2016, as points are calculated during submission.

    Four months since AOR ( Jan 20 ), no updates yet. Additional concerns include the VO ( New Delhi, India ) which is hard-pressed and needs additional time on background check for South Asian country passport holders ?
