How does porting phone numbers in Canada work

How does porting phone numbers in Canada work?
My home phone service is with Company A. We had Company B over to our house (we were going to switch to Company B) but they would have had to run lines in plain sight to get phones where we want them - so we said no thanks to Company B. 2 weeks later, our phone is dead, Company A tells us they were requested to port our number to Company C (we never dealt with Company C nor did we ever contact them). Now we are waiting for Company C to port our number back to Company A. How does this happen?

The wife should present the work records of the husband in Canada to apply for a Canadian visa and be sure to prove that the husband can shoulder the expenses of the wife.

If your husband is working in Canada, he can process the papers needed by his spouse. If you want to go with him at the same departure then you have to ask the Canadian Embassy nearest to your place. I think that is case to case basis.

Can my American husband work in Canada while waiting for his Canadian Permanent Residency? That depends on what category visa was used to apply for PR - family class inside Canada or family class outside Canada If it was inside Canada then he can stay in canada and will eventually be eligible to work on a work permit but not immediately. if it was outside canada then no he cannot work as he is not in Canada. Can they wait in Canada for their Canadian paperwork, or work while in Canada? YES but only if they apply as an inside application and he waits to be approved first. The first part of the application he is a visitor and as a visitor he cannot work. Part way through the processing, he will be approved for AIP (approval in principal) then he can get a work permit and work - but not before then. Can the kids go to school in Canada? YES but they MUST get a study permit first and if the schools charges fees (for foreign students - which they are allowed to do) then the parents must pay. Does she have to apply for a US visa to stay longer than 180 days while she waits for her family's paperwork? If she is staying in USA (and applying from outside of Canada) then yes of course she does!!!

First, a college in Canada is basically a trade school. It's where all the street smart people go (try getting a job with a masters in philosophy) Second, the grades are more relaxed. There is no SAT. You just need a 65% (for the worst universities). For the top notch like York or UoT, you need to sacrifice your first born or know someone who went (If your grades are below 85%). Universities in Canada have collective agreements with each other. Some are to the point that they're like teams. One team might have a GPA system of 12 points. Another team might have one of 8 points. And transferring from team to team.. don't bother. I'm only familiar with the 4 point system. Take all of your classes and average them together. 80% and above is 4.0. 75 to 80% is 3.5. yadda yadda yadda. Tuition is about 6k to 12k a semester. Our mid tier universities (Western) are ranked higher than the ivy league schools in the US.

If there are similar stores to RadioShack in Canada, see if they sell what you are looking for <they closed Canadian Radioshacks, tho>. They can cost from $60-$100. Just remember that it's for something that can handle 250watts <like for computer equipment, appliances, etc>.

An Xbox and games bought in Canada will work - The Xbox will automatically change the power wattage - You will have to use a converter for the plug though Games will work fine - although you wont be able to buy new ones in europe as they will be from the PAL region. Hope this helps!

It really depends on how you plan to do it. Some people use preset curriculum's, do it through an online program or they make up the curriculum themselves. My mom always put together the curriculum on her own, to make it fit me and my academic needs. When I was younger she would write down what I needed to do in a journal and give me a brief overview of what I was going to do, what might be hard and any other details I might need. Then, she would go and work with my brothers while I worked on something from the list and every once in awhile she would check in with what I was doing and help me with anything difficult. Now that I am older and more capable of working without supervision, I have all my schoolbooks in my bedroom and I decide what I do and when I do it. I have a plan book where I write down what I do everyday and as I go, I keep track of the hours I spend on each subject. Sometimes, if my mom isn't really busy, she'll check in with me during the day, but a lot of times she just talks to me about what I did in the afternoon or evening. One thing about homeschooling is that is is A LOT of independent work. If you have never done it before, it will probably be a shock to you! Overall though, its a lot of fun. Its nice to be able to work at your own pace! I hope I helped and good luck!

It depends on if it's an international phone or not.. they need to be able to understand the different kind of cell phone signal that is sent in Europe because it's different here in North America. Although, sometimes it's easy enough to just get one of those phones and put your Slovenian sim card in it and have it work... The other issues is that I'm fairly sure that it will work physically, but it might be possible that the carrier they were designed for has blocked the feature as I know Verizon will do a lot... but from what I understand AT&T doesn't do that as much.... I'm pretty sure that it should work.. but you might drop calls and stuff more often because the bands are different... my co-workers and I have foreign phones and they all work here... so I think you'll be fine. So I would say that it will probably work.... but you will definitely need your Slovenian SIM.. P.S. I have a friend from Slovenia... I think it's really cool that you're from there!

PWC is well known in corporate immigration matters, cost a bit on top than others, but they prepare the case solid & well documented (I am not advertising for them, u can choose one of ur own choice, I am just giving example).

if your relative gets a job with a canadian company (very doubtful) the only cost they pay is the airfares. the company pays for the work permit. if you wish to apply for it without a job, then it costs CAD$150 (if you are approved). A lawyer is not necessary.

After you turn 18, you will probably be able to get a Working Holiday visa for Canada, but you have no chance until then. For info go to: http://www.whpcanada.org.au/introduction.shtml

the only visa you will qualify for is a working holiday visa

Do you know how many young canadians attend college and graduate with diplomas in hospitality management? Thousands every year. My husband was one of them. Now he cannot even get a job in that sector and he is Canadian. This is what is in demand 0631: Restaurant and Food Service Managers 0632: Accommodation Service Managers SOURCE http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/immigrate/skilled/apply-who-instructions.asp#list REQUIREMENTS Employment requirements for Canada - - Completion of a college or other program related to hospitality or food and beverage service management is usually required. (YES you have that) - Several years of experience in the food service sector, including supervisory experience, are required. (NO you dont have this) http://www5.hrsdc.gc.ca/NOC/English/NOC/2006/QuickSearch.aspx?val65=0631 0631 http://www5.hrsdc.gc.ca/NOC/English/NOC/2006/QuickSearch.aspx?val65=0632 0632 do you have any managerial hospitality experience? Have you done any of the duties on a day to day basis (631 & 632 links) as listed above. Have you worked in this sector for several years? If NO then you will NOT be eligible. There is a recession here in Canada so there is high unemployment Canadians and PRs MUST BE HIRED before foreigners.

Yes, it is being reported that Canadian Embassy in Mnilla is processing applications at slow rate As per the official figures, presently, the number of applications being processed for Canada work permits by Filipino nationals happens to be just one out of 20 such applications and that too in 28 days time. This ratio of processing of Canada work permits at Canada Embassy in Manila comes to just around 5 percent.

Skilled worker immigration visas to Canada from Manila are currently taking 5 to 6 years to process - http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/information/times/international/02a-skilled-fed.asp scroll down to Manila Other visa categories may have different times - but Philippines, India and Pakistan are notoriously slow due to the large numbers of applicants received every month.

I believe there is a special visa for your case. When someone has a valid work visa, this person can bring his spouse to live with him. You can only live there and not work. If you are married apply for this visa and if you are not married and want to live there then tell him to marry you. The only way to obtain a work visa for canada is to find an employer whos willing to offer you a job.
2 :
you need to apply for a work permit on your own and apply for jobs in the same city. http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/work/index.asp read this page and see if you QUALIFY. You said PARTNER. Have you been living together for 12 months or more already? If yes then your partner can apply for you to come as a dependent - BUT they MUST SHOW proof of the relationship.

How does Shipping on Ebay work (Canada)

How does Shipping on Ebay work (Canada)?
I mean, some times it says $8.99 for a (i.e) Magic the gathering booster box, and $62 for shipping for a Modern Painting...http://myworld.ebay.com/art_painting_sculptures/ (those ones it says $62) And this is all in Canada (I live in Canada, so it's not a overseas charge) Kinda confused, help would be appreciated.

Okay, the seller with the paintings is doing something that is really illegal on ebay - that is, selling an item for almost nothing, meanwhile pumping up the shipping price to a ridiculous amount. This is against ebay rules and this seller should be reported to ebay for doing this. Since the paintings are large, they would normally cost about 25 dollars to ship. But the seller has added the value of the painting to the shipping cost. He thinks he is getting away with not paying a larger final value fee to ebay; however, those days are over. Ebay now charges a final value fee on the entire transaction, including shipping. You really should report him to ebay for excessive shipping fees. Ebay will make him correct the fees or ban him from selling on ebay. He gives good sellers a bad name by doing this. And this is just a great example of why you should always read the ad in its entirety and ask questions before bidding, so you aren't surprised in any way once the auction is over.

You should fist find out from Canada's site on how to get a work permit.
2 :
You won't get a visa for a teacher, there are too many teachers unemployed already. If you have a Masters in English you should be able to use that site
3 :
If you want work as a teacher, here's a tip: start looking in the small towns rather than the big cities. It's almost impossible to get a teaching job in Saskatoon, for example. But it seems like small town schools are hiring left and right. I know many many people who live in Saskatoon but commute to small communities outside the city to teach. I'm not positive if the other major cities (Regina, Prince Albert, Moose Jaw, etc) are the same, but I imagine they are. Small towns are booming in this province, and therefore requiring more and more teachers. I wish you the best of luck! :)

Yahoo! Answers is not a job hunting website. The average person reading your question will NOT be able to help you find a job. We either must be an employer who is looking for someone, or be willing to sponsor you to come over and find employment. I do not wish to insult you, but there are some fundamental differences in the quality of education in Pakistan compared to Canada. You would have impressed me more with having done your Masters in English if you had actually used correct punctuation and sentence structure, such as what I would have expected from someone with your degree. I'm sure any school in Canada that considers hiring a teacher for English would expect that person to have an impeccable grasp of the language and demonstrate that in their letters and emails. All I can suggest to you is that you review the Canada Immigration website again. It clearly states the requirements for immigrating to Canada. You must have skills that are in demand here (Skilled Worker Program), you must have enough money to start your own business (Entrepeneur and Self-Employed Persons), or must have a family member already here who is willing to sponsor you. Otherwise there are very few options. It is very hard to enter Canada under refugee status, or as a provincial nominee. If you can find a job on the Job Bank of Canada, and the company is willing and able to employ you, then you have a chance of immigrating here. But I highly doubt that you would qualify as an English teacher. Perhaps you should consider a profession that also employs similar skills? Have you considered applying as a Translator? With many new Canadians arriving from Pakistan and India, there may be a bigger need in the government for English-Punjabi or English-Urdu services. Hope things do work out for you. Good luck.

Being an american and working for several multinational firms with employees all over the world including Canada and Australia, I used to think Canada was the best place because of proximity to american markets and an abundance of natural resources and good relations with america. But I've changed my opinion over the last decade and think Australia is better. Not by a whole lot but a significant amount. Canada is old feeling They like to keep things the same and all the innovative people seem to migrate down here to the US. They should be rolling in money with their oil and timber and ores and gold but seem to stall quickly when US suffers. The government doesn't seem to be able to put it's natural resources to work to make all of it's citizens wealthy. In technology, there is no tech city where creative solutions are burgeoning Australia on the other hand seems so much more optimistic about their future. Plus they are in a great location to world markets and have abundant resources. Plus they are an island continent so enemies are far away and not likely to up their defense spending much. The engineers I have met seem to have a confidence that is lacking in Canadians. They think they can fix any problem and also seem to get into their work. They have a sense of humor and value education. They know their nation is getting more prosperous and have the attitude the sky is the limit. Even the immigration bureau seems to want you more and makes you feel valuable if you are an engineer. They will tell you straight out what skills they need and where the shortages are. In a nutshell, Australia beats out Canada on good attitude , technical prowess is on the rise, and youthful thinking and more willing to take chances on projects They both are great countries with healthy balance sheets. They both have low populations with huge areas of land. Canada has probably 3/4 of it's land in areas too cold for most people to live in permanently and practically no beaches for sun worshipers. The point to this is they don't build roads, buildings and even dams where the people aren't. So Canada's population has pretty much stagnated by the border cities by US with the exceptions of Calgary and Edmonton. Anyway, this isn't to put Canada down at all. I think it is a fantastic country also. They have a healthy financial system and health care and good schools. And if they would start selling more of their resources to other countries and get more basic research facilities into place for new industries they could be number one easy in my book. You can't be to wrong whether you chose Australia or Canada. Like I said, I give Australia a slight edge mainly based on good attitudes towards the future. The population rate is growing in Australia a little faster than Canada, and with more population more roads, buildings water systems and sewage facilities need built. Plus Australia is quite a bit closer to India for those flights to visit relatives. Australia is warm with great potential for solar power and wind energy from coastal areas, some undeveloped hydroelectric potential and access from all sides to china , south America, Indonesia , India etc.

Canada I suppose coz it has a higher annual national income, this means more construction, jobs and ... has more population and higher rate of growth.

Australia has much better weather but I'm afraid that your skills as a wedding/event planner or designer are not listed on any of our required occupations lists so you would not be able to get an Australian immigration visa.

Wedding Stage Designer and Event Planner - this is not a skill that is in demand in either country - therefore I seriously doubt you will be eligible to immigrate as a skilled worker. Neither country is very easy, cheap or fast to get Visa!!!! Australia is very strict and Canada can take a long time from Asia - 5 to 6 years is quite normal.
