Is it possible to build credit history from UK?
We landed earlier this year and we have our PR cards. Is there any way I can build Canadian credit history from the UK? We'll be moving permanently next spring.

Did you open Canadian bank accounts and get Canadian credit cards on your soft landing visit? If not, then no.

Hi, just intruding here.. but was wondering, if I get a Canadian account and credit card during my soft landing and use it and pay it off while I am still in UK , would it start counting towards my canadian credit history?
