dupyshoo: Hi Dupyshoo, i'm new here. I just want to clarify something. I got PPR and look to land in November. I intend to do a soft landing with my family for two weeks and I head out but my family will be staying back in Canada. Is it okay to have my pr card posted to me or get someone to bring it. I just want to find out if there are any challenges to this arrangement. |

Madir: Hi, I got a U-Haul truck and moved my stuff myself when I changed cities and moved to my house in a new city. You can hire your own helping hands/movers off kijiji.ca and save costs that way. Few weeks to my move, I began to box up my stuff so that I was not under pressure by moving day. The morning of the move, we just loaded up the stuff into the U-haul truck and I drove it myself. My family followed in our car and that was it. When my friend moved houses later, a number of us friends came together to move his stuff for him into a Uhaul truck and off load at his house. We didn't have to pay for professional movers. Hope this gives you some ideas. 22 Likes 8 Shares |

pauloverdi: Have you done the G1 test? If you have, you can no longer use your Nig license or the International license. (Because you are now in the dataBase, other licenses become null and void, says kwasi) 1 Like 2 Shares |

Advice is needed. I am still awaiting PPR. I have a first degree in Elect eng. and I have worked for telecom companies as Field Engineer for 4 years. I am single. I want to ask the seniors in the house what the best option to settle down in Canny. 1. Enroll in Msc in a canny university and work alongside then find better job after graduation. 2. Find a job immediately or register for EIT and try to integrate. 1 Like 1 Share |
Re: Living In Canada/Life As A Canadian Immigrant by Fusion23: 7:29pm On Oct 20, 2017 |
DatechMan: No one has a crystal ball to see the future. but the first step is to get your PPR, then you are entitled to domestic tuition fees just in case you want to study, you are also eligible to some funds and loans as a PR which you have to pay back later. I don't know if you want to start like this. As for jobs yeah once u are PR u can apply for most jobs online if you have the skills, and from there you can build more skills and get a better job if needed. THE important thing might be your finance now, Because in Canada the bills don't pay themselves ![]() The most important thing is your PR because you are not restricted by a visa..u can start the masters after 4 months u get a dream job u can live as easy as ABC.

mishooo: 105 = knowledge test 120= 4 driving sessions with instructor 90 = G road test 200 = instructor taking you to test centre on the day of test and gives about an hour session through the routes and telling you the speed limit etc. Like mock sha. This 200 ranges from 100 - 200. Depending on the distance of location to test centre. 16 Likes 15 Shares |

A555:The market is still doing okay. Lots of jobs in designs/PM. Nothing is built or constructed without a design from very simple ones to large complex ones. Designs and PM go hand in hand as one takes ownership from the start till project is completed. To get into this space, you need to know the popular software used in your industry in Canada in addition to your license to practice or EIT. Once you get into more senior roles, then you become more of a people manager plus checking and stamping of designs. Your job of course would not be solely designs. You would also be required to complete quotations/estimations, conduct site visits, obtain permits, agreements, liase with contractors/stakeholders and attends lots and lots of meetings depending on size of project. 3 Likes 2 Shares |
