do you think that they will working during the Eid hell no and even if they shows on their website only one day this is for Canadian citizen or people who have PR and they have some thing to do with the Embassy
but the visa office there they wont work only one day which is the Wednesday
its up to them to perform the background check and criminal checks done
from my experience they took around 4 months i think . and some people here they didnt take more than 2 months
it depend on if they many applications for temporary visa or not
no body will give good answer
 
happy eid everyoneeeeeeeeee

Hello Guys

Speaking From Canada and would like to share some advises to new commers
After long process in Canadian Embassy In cairo and lots of misunderstanding
and after a battle with the Military Permit ( which turn out to be its easier than anyone think and you shouldn't worry much about it )

Arriving Canada around month ago

Landing Process is very simple and welcoming and no problem about it
make sure you give correct address to the immigration officer thats where the PR card send to

also you need to get SIN done that can be done via Service Ontario if your coming to ontario.
and the OHIP or Medical Insurance card also Service Ontario if im not mistaken ( you wont be covered medically till 3 months after your arrival to canada )
anyway the Canadian Medical Insurance System sucks and its based on long waiting list to get operation done may take years if not emergency or even other simple tests you need to wait all day long before getting it done.
However, Much better than our system in egypt of course even thought Medical bills outside the system which everyone use in egypt much much cheaper.

- its important to get your International Driver License done from egypt, it could be done from " Nady El saiarat el masry In alex or Cairo "
that will allow you to drive in canada for 2 months only because you are PR and not visitor ( Ontario Law ) not sure about other areas.
after that you need to get your local license
it goes for three stages G1 G2 and G
If your egyptian driver license issued more than a year ago then you can jump from G1 to G2 right away because G1 restricted and you can't drive alone its only written test , G2 will allow you to drive anytime anywhere except highway ( but they not strict about that from what i heard )

so its impotant to get your International Driver Licenses
and if possible Translate your driver License in egypt and legalize it from Canadian Embassy if you want to Jump to G " the final one "
because you have to wait 1 year before applying for G if you don't have Legalized Translation of your license.
but my advice G2 will keep you going.

other advise guys dont expect job opportunities waiting for you over here its not true Canadian suffering from Unemployment rate of 7.5%
so get prepaid to have enough money before you can find work it will take time before you start

Islamic community in Toronto will make you feel like home keep going to mosque if possible at least Friday to get engaged to the Islamic community to keep your identity over seas

and of course weather so bad much cold by now and they telling me that i didn't see the Real Cold weather yet !!

wish you all best of luck
