Hello everyone,
Pls I need answers to these questions;

1) Are kids (under 18) of immigrants registered in schools in the same class they were in their home country? OR

2) Do they move to a lower class?

3) Do they write assessment tests to determine the class they fit in according to the Canadian education standard?

Gurus in the house, pls respond.
Thanks

Every province/school board has a system of doing this. There is no one rule fits all.

When you land, locate a school/board closer to you and inquire from them. They would be the best to give you an up-to-date information.

they will be put in class based on their age and age only, for alberta kindergarten starts after the kid turns 5 years old

Thanks

You can try to check out the link below. This is the link for the Nigeria Canadian Association of Ontario:

https://ncagta.com/

There is an email and phone number on the website. They might be of help in giving you helpful information. I don’t live in Ontario, but this works in my province. Most provinces have a Nigerian Canadian Association like this who are ready to help make the onboarding process for newcomers more seamless.

Another approach I used when I first came to Canada was to google the African Store in my province, and luckily the owners were from Nigeria, and they helped me a lot.

You can look into these options pending when someone living in Ontario responds with more helpful information that can help.

..Learnt cost of living in B.C is freaky expensive..How true is that? how do you manage in there....Mind sharing your experiences and words of advice for persons that might be indecisive with regards to location in Canada. Thank you

The wages in BC are good enough to cover your daily expenses. If you really love the province, go for it.

I know some who work in BC and retire to other provinces.

well you are wrong. The child allowance, gst/ hst benefits one will get is based on income from Nigeria. I got 500 cad for gst/ hst. For those with kids they will have to fill their last income from Nigeria while canada income is zero. Mazuide is right

How about those without kids? How will the Nigerian income benefit them?

no such thing as minimum balance for visiting visa. Just have something reasonable and provide evidence you can afford the trip

If he's in the UK, he doesn't need to bother. He'll most likely get the Visa than not, lol. Applying from Nigeria is another pot of beans entirely.

how much is he budgeting for the trip in Canada. Potential expenses. Hotel, tfare, tourist attractions, feeding , shopping etc

ednut1:

Probably like 700 Canadian dollar in all as his
Canadian host will take of his accommodation and feeding ,etc while he is in Canada ,he only need to cater for his flight alone

Yea, that might be another can of worms.

Anyways, nobody knows for sure except the person applies.

Let the person apply and hope for the best.

Na… not necessarily true.
They do get denied too.

He should input at least 1-5k cad and have double that amount in his bank

jum33:

In this case, the host will need to provide him with their bank statement.

You can get any other good Android phone. I use a Huawei phone and got a sim in Toronto. It worked perfectly well for me in Toronto before I moved to my province.
