Topic:
Renewed Overseas Driver's Licence

ForumUser
ForumUser
Hi, I am a Permanent Resident and one month back went to Drive Test center in Toronto for motor car license.

I have 8 years of driving experience but my overseas license expired in May 2016.

I was asked that in order to credit my overseas driving experience it must not be an expired driving license. Any how i passed G1 written test and accordingly now i shall be eligible for the Driving road test after one year.

My question is, i have now renewed my overseas driving license, do i need to reappear for G1 written test and once again pay the full fee Or my existing G1 license and the renewed overseas licence shall make eligible to appear for the drive test without waiting for one year to appear for road test.

Can I apply for Canadian Citizenship?

Hey, I am 16 years old and I have got the Permanent Resident Card.

I was wondering if I stayed in Canada for 4 years from now onward, will I become a Canadian Citizenship or do I have to stay the 4 whole years after my 18th birthday keeping in mind that no adults (parents or a guardian) will be staying with me except my 20 years old sister.

So briefly, my question is WIll those 2 years count or not?

What if my sister had applied for a Canadian Citizenship and got accepted but I have been out of Canada so I haven't really completed the set of rules to be completed before applying, would I get to apply for the Citizenship due to the fact my older sibling has completed them all?

Issue with Neighbour

ForumUser
ForumUser
We moved into an apartment building last year, we have been having issues with a neighbour.

We are smokers.

Originally the neighbour thought that we were throwing our cigarette butts on to their property but we never have NOT had an ash tray.

The neighbour has contacted our landlord and police to complain.

What steps can I take to stop this?

I've tried talking to the neighbour but it isn't working.

Applying for OHIP - Questions

ForumUser
ForumUser
Hi,
I am currently a full time employee holding a 3-year work permit that is still valid for more than 2 years. I check on your website and found that I am eligible for applying the OHIP.

My company only purchased the additional insurance on top of OHIP, so I need it for my visit to the hospital and etc.

Can you please let me know where can I apply for the plan and what document do I need to apply?

Thank you very much.
