4:23 For me, it's important you have 2 credit cards in Canada. Visa and Mastercard. I remember there was a time when No Frills and Costco would only accept a Mastercard. I currently have a Tangerine Cashback Mastercard and an Aeroplan Visa Card.
8:06 I bought a pair of Vessi Shoes when they had a pop up store in Toronto, It only lasted me 3 years plus don't expect 100% waterproof, some water still gets in.

Dear Rachel,
Thanks for making great videos on important issues particularly issues related to Study Permit.
You have made good videos on different aspects of Study Permit. But, I wonder if you would please consider making a video on the following questions:
1. How to add my SoP to my GCKey account as there is no specific section for this neither is there any other place under which I can upload my SoP. ?
2. Does a research-based masters (also known as thesis-based master) in canada can help you increase your chances in getting your Study permit application approved ? In the research based masters the international students are working on a paid project under a supervisor. In contrast, in the course based stream the international students just Study a number of courses which no paid projects.
3. Can a supervisor write a supporting letter saying he or she is paying a particular student for doing a project or not?
I'm hoping to move in Fall next year and idk if I'll be prepared but you are helping me a lot. Definitely a bigger sister I needed!
Hi, same here. May i know what is your city destination? Maybe we could be friendss?
I’m curious about that as well! Whereabouts are you both headed? ♥️🤗
I’ll pump more videos for sure! If there any insight you’d like to know, I’ll try to add value there! Your suggestions mean a lot to me ♥️🤗
I’m also moving to canada ni Fall 2024 😊
@@rrdancel Your videos are amazing! Thanks a lottt for your tips and tricks for us especially new international students❤️

Hi ate Rachel!
Thank you so much for these helpful tips. I’ve been following you since i decided to become an international student in Canada. I’m currently preparing for everything and hoping to move there in Fall 2024. 😊
Godbless you po.

Thanks so much Ms Rachel. I'm so grateful that I bumped to this vlog of yours. I'm been looking elsewhere and none compares to your comprehensive approach to rental discussions and reiteration of options and choices looking for an apartments to rent in Vancuever. I'm moving from Singapore and I'm in a Medical profession. I'm looking for a place to stay with my families of 4. As my youngest daughter is taking medicine courses in BC or Vancuever, if God wills.
You opened up my mind incredibly what to consider and what pointers to mark, on my journey in finding a rental place to stay .
You also broaden my perspective where to get a house or property, as I'm looking fora pkace to buy and live permanently. I will browse and chew and absorb better all your entries and vlog here in YT. And in any doubts and clarification and enlightenment, maybe I'll Zap you messages here. And if your kind enough to render me some valuable and credible answer I can keep on my progress and selection in getting a place or apartments or house or condominium to stay for time being.
Thanks so much. More power to you 🎉🎉🎉🎉

From WelcomeBC:
• If you are working in a ‘low skilled’ occupation and have a work permit with a specific employer, that employer
must provide medical coverage until you are eligible for provincial health insurance coverage;
• If you are in B.C. on an Open Work Permit (for example, an International Student with a work permit, or on a
Working Holiday Visa) you are responsible to ensure your own healthcare coverage;
• Medical exams that are required for employment, immigration or other reasons are not covered by MSP.(Medical Services Plan):
Have this BIG LIKE👍 from me because it is the only way I can express my gratitude for watching your videos 🌹🌺
Thank you so much 😀 So nice of you!
I'm moving in less than 2 weeks (Mar 4) in Toronto area! Thank you so much for this
I am here now! Still fresh from adjustments since it's just a week ago. Let's connect! :)
I have a question. If you take the Fall term, your summer break is 4 months right? Will it be the same if you take Winter intake. As I was checking the school calendars, I don’t see summer break for winter intake.
hey rachel,
i am coming to canada in may intake. i am admitted to capilano university( i am majoring in computer science) in associate of science. can you tell me your views on this uni and if possible any of your contacts which is doing or has done this course from capilano uni, it would be a great for me to clear my doubts.
Question:
Do you edit your own videos?
Can you put the number on the screen please whenever you have a list? Haven’t seen your other videos. Yet.
Thank you 😊
Great content 😊
Thank you so much! ☺️
Try the adidas cold ready utraboost shoes. most comfortable winter shoe for me. :D
No way, I love the ultra boosts! My ultimate favorite everyday shoe, alongside Hoka! ♥️😛 I’ll check that out for sure! Thanks 🙏
Costco Canada accepts Costco CITI Visa cards issued in the US side. The VISA card acts like a Costco membership card, with your photo in the back.
And vice versa
hello po meron ka pong video on how to apply student visa ?
Useful video
Thank you for watching love 💕
W for making this vid
Hi Rachel! Quick question, for example you had to apply for a visitor visa while waiting for your PR. Is it allowed to travel back to one’s country while waiting for a decision?
Yes that’s definitely doable! At the time, I just didn’t think about going home because of COVID and the lockdown 🤗♥️
@@rrdancel Alright thanks for the swift reply!
may entrance exam po ba sa BCIT for internAtional students?
Can I continue my nursing studies in Canada? I am currently studying in the Philippines on my 2nd year
The process depends on your status to Canada.
How about PR-s?
💝
Concerning medical insurance ? Supposing u are an international student but coming with a spouse on an open work permit and 2minor kids , and your spouse begin to work would the family be entitled to free health care
Your spouse would usually have extended health care benefits under the company he’d be working for and it might be better you be dependents under there for added benefits! ☺️♥️
Otherwise, depending on the province or territory you’re at - you may need to pay a monthly fee for public or private medical insurance…
@@rrdancel ..we are coming to Vancouver in April

Yes, IRCC does require international students to have a certain amount of money prior to coming to Canada. 😊
