Hi Guys,
If anyone require help upon their landing in Toronto, please let me know. I may be able to help with small things here or there. My wife and I are not landed immigrants but have been in Canada for over 3 years now-so we know my way around.

This is only for those who are entering Canada for the first time and don't have any close friends or relatives. Also, please understand that this is not a commercial offer in any way.

Congrats!

Hi,
The weather will be cold-it is already quite cold with the temp around 6 degrees with Windchill making it a lot worse.
Tell me what kind of help you need-will you be landing alone or with family? etc. etc.
My nos is 416 896 1080, let me know what help you need.
A few questions:
Where do you intend to stay? for how long? are you just coming here to land or mocing for good? Do you have friends/family that iwll help you through the process?

Hi Usha,
Please tell us which areas are you looking at, condo/townhouse/house, range etc. Please remember that you will have to sign a one-year lease. Once you provide me with that info, I might be able to help in more concrete terms.

Need your help satishjha73

Hi satishjha73,
First of all I like to thank you ....the way you are helping others providing important info is great.
I also need a help from you
I landed in Canada in Sept 2001 Alongwith my wife and son and within 2 weeks time moved to USA
In mid August 2003 we visited Toronto from USA and applied for our PR card. As currently PR processing is taking roughly about 12 weeks time we're thinking we could pick up before PR card before end Nov 2003
My problem in CIC's PR card pick up letter they are asking everyone to bring Secondary Photo ID (Issued by a canadian province like Health Card,Driving Licence etc).As I am in USA I don't have any kind of those doc .Previously Ginnu posted a message that recently one of his friend collected PR card travelling from USA and in CIC,Toronto office(55 St. Clair Avenue EAST,5th floor) they never asked for any secondary photo ID
Could you please check up with CIC,Toronto office (416 973 4444) to confirm that.I want to understand that CIC,Toronto office not asking for any secondary photo ID card anymore during PR card pick up?
If CIC.Toronto office tell they need another secondary photo ID please ask them if I can show my USA DL and my wife can show her valid IDP(Intl Drv Permit) as secondary photo ID
I tried that number several times from USA but couldn't get connection

Will appreciate your help

I called them and asked them-
they have mailed out your PR card to the address you have given them on the 1st of Oct.
They have asked you to call them if you don't get it in your mailbox by the 22nd of Oct.
I am certain it will be there by now.
Congrats and good luck.
