You need to carry
one address proof: bank statement/Canadian driving license/ home agreement (which proves that you are staying in Ontario)
Photo ID: Passport
Proof of ur immigration status: Landing document
I applied for health card one month after landing as I had no address proof. You can apply for the card within 3 months of landing, but it will only cover you once you complete 3 months in Ontario after landing.
I am in Mississauga. Finding a job is a difficult and a hard task. I don't have friends / relatives here.
Best way is to come with a positive frame of mind and should be open to take any job. And you should not be reluctant to ask anyone for a favor. In my case, I was crossing an office and went inside to ask if they have any job, and I was hired within 48 hours after landing. Its not very much related to my field but it's a lot better than the survival job.
Hi AiR, I agree with you it is all about your attitude. Landed last week for final settlement and already I got a lease on a 2 bed apartment in Mississauga. Next step get my kid sorted out with school and get a job and get my G license. I will take a few drivers lessons to ensure I pass. But still my goal is to remain positive ;D
Info: Now u dont need to fill the PR card application at the time of landing... U just need to provide local address where they can send u your PR card...
Congrats for successfully landing in canada and wish u good luck with rest of things.
U suggest to provide local address at the port of entry - if one decides to stay in hotel for short time then whts the procedure.pls share if u r aware of such info.

You can give hotel address at the time of entry. But be sure you are going to stay there for 3 months atleast, as you will get ur PR card in 2-3 months. If you change ur accommodation in the meantime...inform the agency, so that they can send you ur PR card at the new address.

I have been reading people commenting / sharing their experiences and reasons for not to come to Canada.
However, I have a different version.
I think it is a land of opportunities... doesn't matter where are you or where you from... if you move to a new place...u start from the scratch... So is the case here in Canada...You may be doing excellent in your home country...but when you move to a new place..no one knows how good u r.. When I moved to Canada (six months ago) I took up the job which came my way (fortunately just after 72 hours of Landing).. but, because of that job I could earn my living and started saving.. Now, after six months, I have been promoted and I am in a situation where I can choose what I want, than just taking anything or everything which comes way...
I firmly believe, if you lucky enough to be here...make full of it...and give ur 100%... do ur best...GOD will do the rest..
