What if I go to America?

The immigrant visa issued to you is laminated in five layers with carbon paper between them. When you get it, you will find that the fourth page has been torn off. This is normal. Don't separate the layers at once, don't knead and squeeze them, and don't sign and write any words on them. Otherwise, the immigration documents will be invalid. For example, if you don't fill in your passport number, don't worry. Immigration officials will complete these procedures when entering the country. Personal information on the visa should be carefully checked and checked with the passport, such as date of birth, gender, place of birth, etc., to ensure accuracy. If you find any mistakes, you should immediately contact your legal representative or return them to the visa issuing agency for correction. Never change it yourself.

One more thing is very important. In the "33" column of the immigrant visa, the validity period of the visa is actually the effective date of entry. This date cannot be changed. If you can't enter the country before this date, your visa will be invalid. If it is impossible to enter the country within the validity period of the visa, if there are justified reasons, it shall apply for a replacement. In this case, the visa should be returned to the visa agency with a letter explaining the situation and waiting for the notice. If the immigration officer agrees to issue a new visa, you need to pay the exam fee and retake the exam. Once the visa has been invalidated, you can't apply for a visa through simple procedures, you can only apply again. This shows the seriousness of the employment date.

Before you leave this country, you should carefully check all necessary legal documents, including passports, exit cards, visas and other immigration documents. If you are going abroad for the first time, you will have an exit card on your passport. The column of "going to country or region" on the exit card should be Canada, and the "reason for leaving the country" should be settlement. If the information on the exit card does not match, the exit card must be replaced in advance according to the relevant regulations of the public security department of China. If you have been abroad with the same passport before, you don't need an exit card. In addition, children's vaccination records for children under 16 should also be carried. This record should be a standard bilingual booklet in Chinese and English filled out by the epidemic prevention bureau of big cities according to the original vaccination record. Because in Canada and the United States, primary and secondary school students who are newly enrolled or transferred must submit vaccination records to the school as a reference for future vaccination at school.

foreign exchange reserves

According to the relevant regulations of the Bank of China, people who go abroad for the first time can exchange their passports and immigrant visas for a certain amount of foreign exchange at the Bank of China (currently, it is $2,000 per adult). If you have Canadian dollars or US dollars, you can take them with you, but be careful not to exceed the foreign exchange limit allowed by China Customs. You don't have to change all your dollars into Canadian dollars in China. But it's best to bring some Canadian dollars in case of airport calls, taxis and the first day of accommodation. After entering the country, you can open a US dollar account and change it into Canadian dollars when necessary or when the price is right. Since the exchange rate between Canadian dollar and US dollar is always fluctuating, it is best to decide whether to deposit US dollars or Canadian dollars in the future according to the market at that time, or to open an account that can deposit two currencies.

Prepare common items

In order to start a new life as soon as possible after going to Canada, and at the same time, due to the large price difference between some commodities, it is best to bring some daily necessities in case of no overweight luggage, but don't bring too many daily necessities (such as soap and toothpaste) and paper products, because these commodities are cheaper in Canada.

Common items, you can bring some favorite music tapes, reference books and commonly used small medicines, as well as a small amount of tableware and hardware tools. If you have electrical appliances, please note that the domestic voltage in Canada is 1 10 ~ 125 volts, and the frequency is 60 Hz. In China, the household voltage is 220 volts and the frequency is 50 hertz. Therefore, domestic AC appliances can't be used, and DC appliances can be brought, because the battery specifications of the two countries are the same. You can bring more textiles, including clothes, bedding and so on. Mainly use high-quality cotton inner and outer coats, and bring less chemical fiber clothes except coats, because cotton products are more popular and more expensive in Canada. No matter men or women, clothes should be too thin or too thorough. Everyone should have one or two formal suits for job interviews. You should bring some good scarves and ties, because good silk products are more expensive in Canada, but silk clothes are not popular. A good sweater and trousers can take two pieces each, but not too thick. Everyone should also have long down jackets, mainly in generous and loose styles. Leather shoes should be bought in a very small amount of high-quality products, or it is best to buy them in Canada, because salt will be sprinkled on the road when it snows, and Canadian leather boots are treated with salt and water resistance. You can also bring some western-style sheets, quilts and towels, but don't bring heavy quilts, because the Canadian government stipulates that the indoor temperature of apartments should not be lower than 20℃ in winter. If the owner can't guarantee this temperature, you have the right to ask. If not, you can ask the government for help. What you brought was mainly for convenience at first. In fact, once you have a job, you will find that many things in Canada are not expensive.
