ID card in Ontario
Does anybody know If I can get ID card from Ontario, I do not want to exchange my Illinois driver license with Ontario DL. I just want to get Ontario ID. Thanks to all.
----- Vancouver has state ID like US but Ontario has no state ID, the DL or heath card are the ID in Ontario. If you don’t want to surrender the US DL better show the Indian driving license and International driving license (may be expired that you got from India) don’t show or discuss your US DL. Go to any Driving license center in Ontario give the knowledge written test and get G1 driving license and that is your Ontario ID.
If you can provide, PR card or Landing document, Passport AND utility bills, Cable bill, telephone bill of you Canada phone, apartment rental lease (Canada), bank statement from Canada bank for last 3 months then you can also get OHIP health card that is also Ontario ID. Search Google and read requirement for OHIP.
*** if you need Ontario ID to Pick up PR card it is NOT needed, they just see the letter to Pick up the card , your Passport and landing paper. You may have noted on Pick up letter that they need to see Ontario ID to pick up the card but nobody at CIC Toronto office asks other ID
