#studyincanada #internationalstudent #newcomertocanada

Hi guys, it's Rachel and welcome to my channel. I was once a newcomer to Canada, and believe me the adjustment period was awkward in the first couple weeks in Vancouver. So to make it less awkward for you (and because I care for you as well, nyaw), I will be sharing the TOP 5 THINGS TO DO RIGHT AWAY WHEN YOU ARRIVE TO CANADA.

Do not skip these steps as all of them are necessary to make your stay in Canada easy and breezy. s on how to help you get settled here in Canada. If I knew this beforehand, life would have been a lot easier for me when I was adjusting in a foreign country. Consider them my gift to you, hehe.

I have provided a detailed description of each task on your list and I have also explained why you need to get the things I have listed below:

0:00 Intro
0:55 Apply for Social Insurance Number
2:27 Get a Phone and Cellular Plan 
4:07 Buy a Transit Card 
5:02 Open a Bank Account 
5:58 Apply for Medical Services Plan 

I hope you find this information helpful and if you have more questions, comment it and I’ll get back to you as soon as I can! Thank you lovelies. Cheers!

How do I get a phone and a sim when I don't have a credit card?

[pinnk.juliet]

Hi, I found your channel helpful especially that I am thinking of moving to BC by late next year (God willing) through a study permit. Have not came across yet any best advice on financial funds. Did you have a GIC? or you had your money with you then opened a bank account after you landed canada? I'm quite skeptical opening a canadian bank account here in manila. Will be happy to know how you did it. Thanks. Keep safe and continue on inspiring your viewers :)

Hi Rachel! If my husband is working as OWP, can he cover me and my child so we'll be exempted from paying MSP premiums?

Hello my chosen school has Emergency Health Plan (similar to Manitoba Health Insurance). Is this the same as a (1) SIN or (5) MSP?

[mnulex]

just arrived 3 days ago in Toronto, is it possible to get the SIN during quarantine?

[Dibeauty-pjfu]

Is Freedom still the best deal right now ?
Traveling to Vancouver soon

Hi Rachel, what is the difference of MSP to the Medical Health Insurance we pay in our school? Should I get MSP even though I have health insurance already from school? Thank you! :)
