[quote author=Mimi1999 post=76232987][/quote] Lol my landing gist is so boring and uneventful. Travelled with 2 children on Egypt air. Flight waa good ,my children had packed meals from home so didn't eat plane food. Flight was delayed in LOS so the layover at Cairo wasn't so long . When I landed ww spent less than 20 minutes at immigration. Only question asked was 'how much money did you bring to Canada'.signed my COPR after answering statutory questions and that of my children. Proceeded to do my SIN and went to pick up my bags. Came out to a windy -10 C , my children were excited by it all ; my aunt picked us up . For now I have sorted my bank and phone number. Hope to get my kids to school by Monday 13 Likes |

Hello, I got someone residing in CA to pay on my behalf. I transferred the naira equivalent to his Nigerian account. He raised a draft addressed to CPA, in favour of me. (So my full name was clearly written in the draft, as payment in favour of me) Then he attached the bank draft to a print-out of the email trail showing my online order for the course. Then submitted it at their office. Immediately he submitted it, he then sent a mail to the same lady that responded to my order request sent via mail, to inform her that the draft had been paid... so they could process. This was done the same day...infact within a few hours. And as a sharp guy naa.... I finished the entire course in less than 2 days. No time to waste. Especially considering the delay by CPA BC. Approximately 8 weeks to respond. Newbeecey: 10 Likes 3 Shares |

Wow thats great. Thanks for your very detailed response. Did you have to pay HST too considering you are not resident in CA? raphrulz: |

This will be deducted. They will ask you to send them a copy of your birth certificate. However, I am still waiting for their feedback on this, as I am yet to be contacted to make payments yet. Once they confirm all my documents satisfactory, then the payment for subscription+ membership comes up. What stage have you reached?? and are u going through CPA British Columbia? Newbeecey: |

Hello, My application took 18 months before it was approved. However, my profile was updated from medical passed, then Background check in progress and no word anymore. I sent inquiries via the IRCC portal(response always generic) and ordered GCMS notes once. Though, I was sending inquiry like every 3months but moved on with other plans for my life, till I was invited for another medicals and got approved few days after. So just be at rest, they would invite you for another medicals soon. waynetemi: 5 Likes 1 Share |

buchito1: If you can post them on the express entry thread, that will be fine, just quote me when you do, it's not your personal details or anything. Just so it can add to the body of knowledge there. Also, others can contribute from their own experiences. 2 Likes |

Right, I actually meant HST on payment for the course, since the person that paid for you is in CA. I have only sent transcripts to them, I am going through CPA Ontario, found out from someone here a while back (cant remember) that they are faster raphrulz: |

We are in the same boat....passport dispatched since 21 too...lets hope they arrive on Monday... juicebox: |
Re: Living In Canada/Life As A Canadian Immigrant Part 2 by raphrulz: 3:02pm On Mar 01, 2019 |
Hello, HST was not applicable in my case because my friend paid exactly the amount that was quoted for the course. WHich was what i paid him the cash equivalent for. As for CPA Ontario, they respond faster no doubts, but have a more complicated process. My friend who helped me pay also discouraged me from going that route when i complained about the extremely slow response rate of BC. He also processed his own as an accountant. He advised me to finalize all the conversion before I land. Besides, CPA ontario only processes the conversion when you are on ground. So you may need to weigh your options well sha. Who did you send your transcript to?? (CPA BC or ON??) Newbeecey: 1 Like |

My people good day, I'm wondering if SK is a good idea for a new immigrant to land and if there are also huge job market for people in finance. Although I'm aware that Ontario is the financial hub of Canada, just want to know about Saskatoon. Your input will be greatly appreciated, thanks 3 Likes |
