Hi All,

Looking for some inputs on the following from people who have experience/insights in moving from US to Canada

1. Drive vs Fly
Beyond the obvious differences in cost, convenience, luggage capacity, are there other considerations (e.g. immigration process, documentation needed ..etc.) in driving vs flying to Toronto?

2. Quarantine
How are people managing quarantine? Any recommendations on places/services that worked well (Hotels/Airbnb/Corp Apts)?

3. Setup
Apartment search- Is it virtual tours only?
Bank Accounts- Can Bank accounts be opened shortly after landing or does this require a SIN?
Money Transfer- Are people using travelers checks or US Debit card or TransferWise to transfer money from US bank accounts?

Would appreciate links if these have already been answered elsewhere. Thanks.
