Hi everyone,
My name is Sum and I'm 21 years old. I was born and grown up in Vietnam. I have 2 nationalities: Vietnamese and Canadian (My Dad is Canadian and he is living in USA now)
Next year I will graduate from university and get Marketing Bachelor. Then I would like to move to Canada (maybe Ontario) to find a house to live and get a job. In addition, I have Canadian passport and Certificate of Canadian. I get IELTS 6.5 also.
Can you tell me some procedures which I have to do first when I arrive to Canada? Then if for a long time I can't get job, is there any support from government for me? Can I borrow money from government bank to study Master degree in Ontario to get a good job?
Thanks for reading! Have a nice day
