Canadian Vehicle Registration
After I landed as PR, I went to a registry(same one where I applied for health card) , changed my license to Canadian.You have to do federal and provincial inspection for your vehicle. I paid around ~ 200 through RIV website for federal inspection. They will send u forms to ur email/address, which has to be taken to an authorized mechanic for inspection. Also from the registry, I got another form (paid around ~ 80 for it) for provincial inspection. The mechanic @ Canadian tire charged around 1100 bucks which included tire change(all four were worn out), wheel alignment and provincial inspection fees(~ 230). After the inspection, the mechanic gave me a pale green form. I took this to the registry along with Canadian vehicle insurance (~1660 for two for a year) and paid another ~ 80 CAD for the license plate. They gave me the plate immediately. Also you will get a sticker from RIV through mail after the vehicle has passed the federal inspection.
