DecisionMade, you are right about that! Regarding health card, in my experience, the effectivity of my card started on NOv 1 (based from AIP issed AUG31) and this card was sent by mail and it's also good for 1 year, and the agent told me that once I get my PR, I can just go back to update it with RAMQ. The agent told me that they usually give only 1 year duration for people with AIP. Also do not expect you card to aarive exactly in Dec 1, wait for 3-4 days, mine came Nov 8.DecisionMade said:i'm in Quebec..
quebec people are complicated..
I will try to go to SAAQ just to gather infromation.
