    Actuality, I believe it should be SIM card second, bank account 3rd as many banks require this information to open an account and you need it to access TD accounts on your phone. Plus it’s way harder to get an appointment without a local (Canadian) phone number

      That’s right. The order in which we presented - this might differ depending on your situation.

  • @alexandermarkin4251
    @alexandermarkin4251 Před rokem +8

    In most cases your temporary address like Airbnb apartments’s address will be enough to get a SIN, phone number and bank account. At least it worked for me in Calgary.

    Hi guys ! Thank you for this rich contain 🙏
    My question is about the PR :
    Can I do a soft landing and leave Canada before recieving my PR card , then when it arrives my friend send it to me by post or with someone, and then re-enter Canda when I want ?

    • @peachypeach5838
      @peachypeach5838 Před rokem +1

      Yes

    • @MakeThatChange
      @MakeThatChange  Před rokem +1

      Theoretically, yes - my family did just that back in 2008. However you must make sure you can trust whoever is to send you a card, and make sure you do it via safe and secure mail. If your card gets lost in transit, it might be very hard to recover:
      Make sure to consult the Canada.ca website in case there are any changes since then

    Is sharing SIN necessary to get a credit card? I went to CIBC bank in Calgary and they told me to get SIN before I could apply for a credit card.

    • @MakeThatChange
      @MakeThatChange  Před rokem +2

      Banks usually ask for SIN, however, you're not legally required to provide it in order to receive the service - the banks cannot refuse service if you don't provide a SIN. Here's the government guidance:
