Dont forget to bring authentication letter from the license issuing authority in your country.

if you land in Toronto, then I dont see why you would need a Car. TTC's Subways ans buses go to very nook and corner of that city.

Hi, Have you got the "Letter of Authentication" from BRTA? As far as i understand BTRA would not follow any official pad. They just write and sign with seal on it. Does it work?
please update me as i am from Bangladesh.

If you really need an authentication letter Bangladesh High Commission of Canada provide that authentication letter. You need to require enclose your original Driver's license and need to fill up the form is there in the website and would be better if you can also attach the copy of your passport.

If you do not have your Driver's license in Canada with you and lost it in Bangladesh then you need to get the hand written certified copy from BRTA and need to file a GD and need to send the documents also with your copy of your passport, current status in Canada and other identification document if there is any along with the form.

The charge is 40 Cad for urgent which they provide in a week and 25 Cad for ordinary which takes up to one month. They recommend to send the documents in a registered mail not DHL, FedEx etc. and to include a prepaid mail with it as there is some recent incident of loosing documents while sending and receiving from the Bangladesh High Commission which they always blamed on Canada Post but the concerned person blamed the high commission.

Here is the link of Bangladesh High Commission where you will get more information.

htt p://ww w.bdhc(.)or g/index.php?go=attestation

This is the link of the form:

htt p://ww w(.)bdhc(.)o rg/download/attestation_application_form.pdf

Ignore the brackets and space.

Hope it is helpful.

dear Bangladeshi brothers and sisters,

please accept my apology as my message is not related to this sub-forum. as you all already informed that CIC is going to trash all our applications those who applied before February 2008. so, we the pre february 2008 applicants, formed a group to be united worldwide and raise our voices together against this injustice. therefore, my request is.... if you know any bangladeshi who are in the same boat, please try to inform or spred this message to them for joining us.
a total of 895 members (pre feb 2008 applicant) are already joined so please inform them to visit http://www.facebook.com/groups/179730375479964/
your cordial cooperation regarding this issue would be highly appreciated. we are praying for all of your success. please pray for us too so that we would be able to fight strongly against CIC.
