Lipat ka na lang ng Alberta.

IMO, vancouver is kinda magulo, though they have nice sight-seeing places.

If you're a landed immigrant, why do you need to apply for work permit? All you need is to get a SIN (which takes about half hour) and then you're good to go.

allredndizzy · « **Reply #432 on:** March 20, 2009, 07:33:55 am »

^I agree...no need for work permit. May PR card naman tsaka SIN. Tsaka dun sa Child Tax Free Benefit, my mom got it after a few months.

mabilis nagreply ang Canada Revenue Agency noong nag-apply ako ng Canada Child Tax Benefit last August 2008. nareceive ko agad yung notice from CRA ng September, stating na na-direct deposit na nila sa bank acct ko yung july-september entitlement. tapos may na-receive din akong Universal Child Care Benefit cheque, kahit di ko naman inapply yung UCCB.

im not really sure about work permit, but ang alam ko matagal talaga ang processing ng visas or citizenship dito because of the backlogs. Ako nga sis February 2008 pa ko nag submit ng application for citizenship, wala pa ko balita until now eh. Nakareceive lang ako ng notice of receipt nong August 2008, until now ni ha ni ho wala. kaya tuloy nag apply na lang ako ng us tourist visa para makapunta ako ng US this april ang tagal kasi eh!

^
yun nga din ang reklamo ko eh, kasi sa US,matagal din naman pero at least makakarecieved ka agad ng notice of reciept para naman sure ka na andon nga yung paper mo, dito wala man lang kahit ano eh,medyo hindi pa naman ako satisfied sa Canada post kasi 2 times na ako nagkaron ng problema sa kanila, kaya di ko alam kung ano nangyari sa papers ko, baka nawala na naman yun.

i dare not to do this, yung mga andito na nga ang hirap maghanap ng work,saka mga company ngayon ayaw na rin masyado muna mag sponsored ng mga foreign workers, kasi madami na rin na taga rito ang jobless.

according sa cic.gc.ca:

General processing time for canadian citizenship applications

Currently, the total processing time for a routine application for citizenship is approximately 12â€“15 months. Please see further details: http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/information/times/canada/cit-processing.asp
