Hi All,

I wanted to know that if we land on a week day at toronto, can we get our PR, SIN and Health card done right from the airport itself? I heard that now a days they have counters at the airport to apply for the SIN number but not sure about rest of the cards. Let me know if you have any information on the same...

Shef

hi shef,

thanks for the info about your accommodation.
it is actually better to land on a weekday, so that certain important government services would be operational.
they don't work on sat and sun.
yes, they have introduced booths for obtaining SIN, PR card (only application) at airport itself. not sure about medical card
still better to cross check with someone in toronto.

I still haven't booked my flight but I am planing to fly on 31 January: Skopje - Ljubljana; Ljubljana - Brussels; Brussels - Toronto; Toronto - Calgary.
I plan to book the flight to Calgary at least 8 hours after my supposed landing in Toronto as to have enought time to pass all the formalities. BTW I am coming as temp worker.
I hope to land in Calgary by 2nd of February.
Boy it will be a journey... 2,5 days, I hope to survive it.

I will arrive in Calgary at 1 am, does anyone know what to do till morning :) is there free wifi, places to eat.

Still unsure about many things....
I wish I was coming to Edmonton :) coz many of you folks are going there so someone might help me in my settlement.
But I will try my luck in Calgary.
If anyone is going for Calgary around this period please PM me so we can get in touch.

hi sharmilas,

its wise to stay and get you PR card atleast. 30 to 45 days. no idea if you can get it by courier or through someone in canada.
regarding job opportunities, no one can give you a guarantee that you will get your "dream salary" job immediately upon landing. it will depend upon your luck, networking, timing and faith in god. it could take more time than you expect.
