This category will give you more info: http://correresmidestino.com/tag/canadian-citizenship/ So after you land in Canada (come to Canada with the PR visa in your passport), you will eventually receive your PR card, SIN card, you can apply for a health card. But that's about it, no citizenship yet!

I was just going through blogs regarding Canadian immigration and came across yours and it's helpful since it's not super-technical! :p I have a question: What happens after receiving the PR card? I'm waiting for both, the PR card and SIN card, and they should be arriving soon, but was wondering where I should go from there. Living with my husband in the US for at least another year and a half and was confused regarding how the whole citizenship process works. Thanks in advance! :) Hi!

I advise you to read http://correresmidestino.com/tag/how-to-find-a-job-in-canada/ and to start doing research on specific cities. Well, it all depends where you want to settle.

I'm waiting for the Visas now. I have 2 kids in elementary school... I'm a Telecom Engineer and hold an MBA degree. I don't know any body in Canada ! How can I get a job and put my children in a good school? Thanks Hi,

It's common. Just don't forget to come back to Canada! No worries, lots of people “land” in Canada and then return home for a few weeks/months to wrap things up. It’s common.

So hopefully anytime next week, I will be getting my passport back. I haven’t resigned yet from my job at the moment and am planning to just take 6-8 weeks leave on my work just land to Canada, wait for my PR card and come back to my work and on Christmas, I will finally tender my resignation to my company and be permanent in Canada. Do you think I will not be getting any problem later on doing this? Would the immigration be asking me if where and what will I do if I will be getting out of Canada? If it is in case they ask me, would it just be fine to tell them that I will just finish my work in 5 month, cause it takes time before our company will be able to get me a replacement.

I am planning on leaving Canada due to the job scenario and relocate to Dubai. I will however apply for my citizenship before leaving. Since I've completed the eligibility criteria of staying 1065 days, will there be any issues for obtaining a citizenship due to leaving the country?
