^ Yep, meron na po siyang RRSP.

Hindi po kasi ako pwedeng ipasok na tax credit because my husband doesn't remit money here in Pinas. We got married last year and wala pa kaming anak so he doesn't have to send money to me (wala kaming proof na 'dependent' ako sa kanya). We also have a family business here that I help run kaya may earnings din ako. Mahirap naman kasi lokohin ang Canadian government, di ba? So yun po, pagpunta ko pa lang sa Canada saka niya ako maidedeclare kasi zero income na talaga ako by that time hehe.
That's good sis! I dunno kung na tax credit sakin c husband last year pero sabi ng accountant nagkaron ako ng some credits dahil 0 income daw ang spouse ko. Anyway, ang mahalaga is makuha na ntin ang mga visa, tsaka na ntn problemahin ang taxes :p

Canadian experience ang kailangan, sis. Sad to say, mahirap matanggap sa field talaga natin pag kagagaling lang sa Pinas. Kaya nga napipilitan magsurvival jobs ang karamihan. Pero yun nga, tiyaga tiyaga lang talaga. Kailangan pa ata mag Engineer-in-Training bago din maging P.Eng. :)
Tama sis kaya sobrang thankful ako kasi tinutulungan ako ni CanadianJeepGuy and his wife kung paano ang mga steps para makakuha din ako ng license sa Winnipeg... sana konting exams na lang ang irequire... ::) Yap require din yung Engineer-in-Training ka bago maging P.Eng. sabi nga nila mas mahirap pa nga daw ang board exam dito eh kaya sana makeri ko naman exams nila dun. hehehe

Haha, oo nga na-off topic na tayo sa tax na yan. Sana talaga dumating na yung visa. Sobrang nakakainip na. Nakaka-annoy na rin yung mga tanong ng mga tao kung dumating na visa ko (though di naman nila kasalanan). I am tired of explaining to everyone that there's a strike and naiipit talaga mga passports sa embassy. Yung iba nga parang di naniniwala, di naman kasi nila nababalitaan daw yung strike sa TV. Kaloka!

Hi superman maraming govt programs dito for immigrants to gain Canadian experience. I suggest punta sa HRSDC pagdating mo dito para makakuha ng info. Meron din NGOs at provincial programs available.

Hi Superman08, HRSDC is Human Resources and Skills Development Canada. They're the government agency in charge sa pag improve ng employment, welfare, education and overall improvement ng standard of livings ng canadian citizens and permanent residents alike. Sila din ang nagadminister ng employment insurance and the canada pension plan. Check their website out (see below). Marami silang resources sa mga newcommers.

From Ottawa ako, 15 years na kami dito. I can also give you and our forum mates some NGO websites. Meron ako friend nag work dun, specialty nya is immigrant settlement and work placements :)

hello po, anybody po na may experience na applying for APEGA membership, pa-share po ng mga tips & infos. Im presently working here in Dubai for 7 years as Engineer (total 13 years including pinas experience). Kasama ko dito wife & 2 kids ko & we're planning to land in ALberta by March 2014. I started already preparing the documents for APEGA membership like submitting my OTR from my school and will do later the online application. It would be a big help if anybody who can share his/her experience on how to have a license as PEng in ALberta. Thanks in advance
