Most of the above are also being discussed when attending GCP/PDOS at CFO. Thank you for sharing, though.

Hi Survivor27 and everyone,

Just a thought I would want to share, based on personal experience as well on the pre-arrival services. :)

I've taken GCP provided by CFO already and currently taking pre-arrival services programs as well. Yes, there are similarities in the topics they discuss, but the ones provided by accredited service providers of the Canadian government are more detailed and provide valuable information for everyone going to Canada. I'm an applicant as well and not related to this agency hehe, but you can try other service providers (there are a number of them accredited by the Canadian government) based on the list provided on the CIC website. GCP information and advice of spouse and family members in Canada is fine and equally important, but if you yourself want to get detailed information on a lot of things, I recommend that you avail of the pre-arrival services.

This is particularly true if you want more details on finding an employment: for example, even if you are a professional in the Philippines, the employment system and what Canadian employers look for (there's even a resume format and accreditation of the degree you earned in the Philippines so that it will be recognized by the Canadian employers), all the taxation requirements, and knowing all the benefits that the government has to offer (which is what Canada is known for) to its citizens and PRs. FREE naman, will just take your time nga lng kasi mahaba. And in some service providers, you can look up at the video courses online so that you can watch it just on your free time. :)

In some service providers, you can also just tell them what particular topic you want to explore, and those are the topics that they will provide information on.

Lahat ng service providers funded ng government of Canada, so they actually try to solicit you to avail of their services para mabayaran sila hehe. So they have to do a good job para sila un irecommend sa mga bagong immigrants ng mga past na nagtake ng courses.

If you're going to Toronto, I for one recommend the YMCA of Greater Toronto- Online services/pre-arrival services for new immigrants to Canada: http://nextstopcanada.ca/

They have a checklist of topics relating to setting your new life in Canada, just choose the topics you're interested in, chat with their online specialist, then they will provide you with a personalized plan on sites and videos you can watch later on for getting information for your new life in Canada. This is purely done online, though, or they also provide inland settlement services once you've arrived in Canada.

For employment, you can try SUCCESS- AEIP Pre-arrival settlement services: https://aeipsuccess.ca/auth/login

There's a LOT of information to digest, but I think it's all beneficial in the end. Magandang pampalipas oras at pampaexcite lalo sa new life nyo sa Canada. :)
