I suggest you visit their websites to see what big banks offer. Compare and decide on one. Make sure to take note of the fine print at the bottom, as these newcomer offers often come with conditions. thesailorman: 1 Like |

Options: a very good shovel (wide, high, with wheels), electric snowblower, or heated driveway (lol). I'll wait for more experienced Canadians to chime in. However, I know that clearing the snow ASAP and salting your driveway before snowfall helps. muymacho: 1 Like |

In Naija, I used to visit the barber every other week as my hair grows fast and I had to always look sharp for work. However, when I got to Canada and saw the cost of a haircut - I learned to trim my hair and beard myself. I only go to the barbershop as needed now. Paying $40-$50 (+tip) regularly is crazy.

Please clarify, you're landing in Montreal Airport in Quebec but your destination is Hamilton, Ontario? That's like a 6 hour drive. Why this extra stress considering your flight will already be too tiring? Your cheap options may include Megabus or Via Rail. Princeofabia: 2 Likes |

If you're not getting any response, that in itself is something. You may need to rephrase your question based on your own research. Now, I haven't been to any of the places you asked about, but below is what I found on Google. Sarnia - closer to Detroit, US than it is to the nearest Canadian city (London, ON) Medicine hat - almost 3 hrs away from Calgary, AB Nova Scotia College - NSCC? they have 14 campuses across the province. You should find information on the specific campus you may be heading to. In terms of jobs and accommodation, I would choose NSCC. Abigbo: |

This is what is required per IRCC - https://www.canada.ca/en/immigration-refugees-citizenship/services/immigrate-canada/express-entry/documents/proof-funds.html There is no need to complicate matters, especially if you don't have anything extra to prove/hide. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cvx-BK-urYc You can watch this to see how I presented my POF using tips that I got from Nairaland.

No issues here. There's no rule that says all the POF must be in the PA's account only - correct me if this is wrong. Let your husband write a letter that the money in that account will be used for you both to settle in Canada, and you have access to it. Get bank letters on both accounts, and do a summary in an LOE. This is what I did. See the tips and sample letter and summary in this video. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cvx-BK-urYc Ca08abe: 2 Likes 1 Share |

Entitled much? Don't be angry. Banks may not want to open an account for you as you're yet to land. However, you can reach out to any of the banks and let them know the account will be funded by funds coming from a uni in Canada. They may consider that as you'll likely land soon. You may have a better chance if you already have PPR. There's no harm in trying. olutoyiin: |

Flakeyy: If you're a new PR, you do not need to have filed your taxes before you can apply for CCB. However, you may face a bit of a challenge. There are 3 methods of application; i. birth registration - only if your child was born in Canada. I registered using this method when my family had newly landed and had not filed taxes yet. Note that we stated our income from Nigeria, but this in itself is not 'tax filing'. ii. CRA My Account - only if you've filed taxes before iii. Mail - I believe this is the option that can work for you. You can read more on it here https://www.canada.ca/en/revenue-agency/services/child-family-benefits/canada-child-benefit-overview/canada-child-benefit-apply.html Do note that I am not a tax professional, and I am a newcomer myself. 7 Likes 4 Shares |
