Hello Friends,
I am a new member of canadiandesi, and also soon I would soon be a new member of the Indian immigrant fraternity in Canada.

Friends I needed your help about:-
1) How will a new person who has no contact or firends in canada be able to settle down after he/she lands?
2) Does the Indian community in Canada have some welcome homes where new comers could go after landing?
3) I enquired with a immigration agency here in India they say they can do the above but they are charging US$1000/- for this service, and they say they will take care of PR applicaiton, SIN, job searching, resume making,etc. Does any one here have any experience of the above services with any immigration agency from india???
Plz help me as I am confused as to what exactly to do, so that I don't have any problems after I land there...

Thanx..

Metroguy..your name is a misnomer.. You have an urban name yet your views reflect your ignorance (sorry for being blunt)

3.) That "consultant" is nothing but a hack, quack, fraud, 420,...whatever you may call him

Save that 1000$. You have enough information here from this wonderful forum. You first need to decide which city you wish to land in. Then you can post a message on this forum. If you are lucky you may well find a few noble souls from that city. You can initiate some contact with them or ask them for contacts in the local Indian community etc., for further help. As for SIN, Health card etc, all you need to do is use the contacts you obtained from the above mentioned sources, catch a bus and visit these places. You can finish them in one day.

As for job hunting...again read the forums....ANY CONSULTANT PROMISING YOU A JOB IS A FRAUD..with a F... avoid them like plague....
Best of luck in your endeavours

Yes O_N is right .

I think if u go through this forum for a month regularly especially the sections 'first few days' or ' after arriving to Canada ' plus the classifieds section u will easily learn from the experiences of other new comers .

Please visit sunnynewcomer.com as well plus use the search in charcha using words "where to stay" by matching all words.

U will be saving ur USD 1000 right away and all the CD effort wud also b coming 2 some good use .

I am afriad no one can asnwer that question. It all depends on your situation. If you are arriving with loads of cash, then you can safely settle down in Toronto. If you are coming with just about enough cash, then also you can settle down in Toronto but you need to find out abt jobs. You have not given any information abt your situation. Post more info in relevant parts of this forum. (e.g., education, jobs, qualifications, rent etc.) and then you can get better responses.

If you are married, you can also post information abt your wife. Her income also can supplement yours.
