Influential101: so I made further research, and I found out from someone who had the same issue that's it peculiar only to CPA Alberta, other CPA provinces do not give that crazy condition, my apologies if I misled anybody 4 Likes 1 Share |

for those of us who have ICAN certification only, there seems to be light at the end of the tunnel, even though I do not know when exactly it's going to come to fruition. Read below the response from ICAN as regards ICAN to CPA conversion Hi Segun, MRA Still in progress, ICAN has provided all the required documents for the evaluation and the CPA has scheduled 2019 for the evaluation. Our application is already in queue and following the CPA evaluation process, stay tuned!!!!

Kmgb1: I presently work as a full time AML Investigator in the new place and I still spend almost $400/month on transport to work. The bill is covered by my overtime pay on a monthly basis anyway. 1 Like 1 Share |

hayor2014:Woww.. my interest is actually CPA Alberta and I have never read such on their website. .https://www.cpaalberta.ca/Become-a-CPA/Internationally-Trained-Individuals/MRAs/CIMA The only thing written is that one must have started the programme prior to immigrating to Canada, not really completing it.. I will like a confirmation from the house pls... 1 Like 1 Share |

Hello, I'd like to suggest an idea to help Canada prospective immigrants (myself inclusive). For those already on ground and have spent some months, it would be nice if you can write a review of your province or city ( experiences can't be same for everyone in same city). It would boost the information on the provinces on page 1 and help new comers as well to determine which city might favour them. Landed seniors can help by naming areas in their city that isn't the best area to rent a house for security reasons ( new comers esp those without relatives in canada will likey rent a place based on price and might know nothing about how safe the area is). Your current/updated reviews will really help. Also, admin, can you please add info on front page regarding renting a place for newcomers without credit card etc. What documents are required for new immigrants etc. P.S : anyone who doesn't agree with my post can ignore it, no insults. Thank you. 67 Likes |

Hello guys. Please, lets not conclude from just what we see on their websites. Hit them up.. send them a mail or call them to confirm this fact. Until you get a confirmed response from them... do not be certain that you can continue the process when your ACCA exams have not been completed in Naija before leaving. I for one know the information I got. Influential101: |

raphrulz:I don't need to send an email, i successfully did it. Like i said earlier, the information on the website regarding completing the exams before landing was updated last year. If anyone is in doubt, let them contact CPA of whichever province they intend to settle. 2 Likes 1 Share |

Zutlin: I have raised the issue a number of times on this thread. People who are intending to live and work in Canada should educate themselves on what is and what isn't racism. All the information can be found on the Canadian Human Rights commission and and each provincial Human Rights Commission website. Usually what many people perceive as racism isn't necessarily racism. Conversely, people may face racism or discrimination without knowing they are being discriminated because they ignore the law. Racism is a very complex subject. Thus, the importance of getting familiar with the rules and regulations of their provincial labor board as well as the provincial Human Rights law. All the informations are available online. For someone to be the only black employee on his team, if his/her manager doesnt like him/her, this doesn't necessarily mean the manager is racist. The manager may not like the black employee because of his personality and not because of the color of his skin. In Canada if you are a landlord or business owner or employer and you have a building with no elevator (but only stairs) , this will be taken as discrimination against people using wheelchairs or with physical disability. Therefore, I don't think there is a building in Canada with no elevator . All the landlords, employers and business owners are required to accommodate people with physical disability 19 Likes 1 Share |

titiclassy: This is a forum where we share our experiences for others to learn and be enlightened. I simply asked if you understood the language spoken and there's absolutely nothing wrong in my asking. You are the one who wrongly interpreted my question in your own imagination and that has made you quite edgy and unnecessarily defensive. Anyways, I already mentioned my reason for asking and someone else has shared their own experience which I (and I believe others) have learnt from. 38 Likes |
