Hello, my name is Mykyta. I am looking for help for my mother who come from Ukraine and left everything there. She just got approved with work visa.
I would like to know if Kingston has a place where she can start learning English?
Does she need to complete a medical exam, within 90 days?
Can you help to find work that does not require English for now?
Thank you.

Hello,
Thank you for sharing your question and situation with us.
You may be able to find some helpful information in our Settlement.Org article here, Where can I take ESL classes? You may have to find out which you are eligible for by contacting them as some of them have eligibility requirements in relation to status in Canada.
You may also want to dial 211 on a phone for free and speak to an information and referral specialist. 211 is a free, confidential service that is available 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. They will also be able to help connect your mother with employment services to help her find work.
If the medical exam you are looking to complete is in regards to an immigration application, you may want to confirm with IRCC about the timeline. In the IRCC article, Medical exams for visitors, students and workers:
Getting an exam after you submit your application
We’ll send you instructions on how to get your medical exam done. You must go for your medical exam within 30 days of receiving these instructions.
If you don’t follow these instructions, we may refuse your application.
We hope this information is helpful, please follow up with us if you need any further information.
Sincerely,
Your Settlement.Org team
