Re: Getting Canadian mobile from abroad

Oh, those are useful. Thanks.

I just needed it for KYC, but it turns out that ID and face scan are enough without the mobile number.

Re: Getting Canadian mobile from abroad

Oh interesting. Thanks - checking now.
Can they tell it's a US and not Candian number?

Getting Canadian mobile from abroad

A bit of a strange request...

I'm still in the UK, but want to receive texts on a Canadian mobile number from here. This poses a number of issues:
1) I need roaming
2) I need to get the sim here...

Re: Entering on a UK passport (dual citizenship)

This is actually one of the issues for me. My friend spends his life in the air, and has so many miles that he can upgrade me for free. I want to try for special authorisation, but if I don't get it,...

Don't think you can do that from the UK. I have emailed the embassy.

Re: Entering on a UK passport (dual citizenship)

Yeah, I live in the UK, but have Canadian citizenship. The holiday location is booked for the 1st of May, but I don't have time to get a new passport. I haven't booked the flight yet though. I don't...

Re: Entering on a UK passport (dual citizenship)

Thanks for all the info.

I guess I can get special authorisation if I book a flight then apply within 10 days of my flight, as I have "a valid passport from a visa exempt country" and have "held a...

Entering on a UK passport (dual citizenship)

Does anyone have a definitive answer on whether or not you can enter Canada on a UK passport if you also have Canadian citizenship?

Thanks in advance.

Re: Transferring money pre referendum.

Indeed. My feeling is that the pound will bounce back a bit quite soon.

A friend working in the city said the mood was similar to the Lehman Brothers collapse. I'm also wondering about foreign...

Transferring money pre referendum.

I'm planning to move to Canada in the next year.

I have some savings, and am worried about the pound if we leave the EU. Would it be wise to transfer some money to CAD at this point?

Why Canada?

Just out of interest, what made you choose Canada?

I guess this is a question to those that didn't have a specific reason to move there such as a spouse or job offer.

Re: Escaping

I’ve no doubt they are in communication. I doubt they would put much effort in unless it was a large sum though. Anyway, as I mentioned, it was more of a rant :)




Well, there is a family...

It's not that much; I can afford it :)

I wish they applied the same rule with large amounts!

How on Earth did they find you through different countries?

I'm going to pay mine; it was just hateful rebelling against the late charges :/

Moving money to Canada

If one moves their money from the UK to Canada, is it taxed?

Say you sold you house in the UK in order to buy a house in Canada, would Canada tax you when you brought the money in?

Re: Escaping

Good to know.

I'm facing a hefty late payment due to a crapy accountant, and wondering if it's worth paying if I'm leaving anyway.
