Opening bank account BC/SIN number/Drivers License - Temporary address/hotel
Hi all,
We are due to fly out to Vancouver on 16th April as I have my BC PNP/job etc to start week after.
My question is basically will I have any issues in opening a bank account/obtaining an SI number and changing my driving licence to a BC one whilst not having a permanent address??
We will be landing and stopping in a hotel for a week or two maybe until we find a rental accomodation.
Any help will be appreciated.
Many thanks
Steve

You have 90 days to swap your driver's license so I would not worry about that yet.
