Call regarding" SIN" once I also received a call from scammers sayings something like they have found me involved in some illegal activities bla bla,then I went to Canadian service just to get knowledge wt to do if we receive this kind of calls because the numbers they are calling from are almost identical with canada services authorities.so sometimes we cant ignore those calls and just attempt to answer. Then the representative explained me whenever Canada have some doubts or questions regarding anything they dont call your directly they send you a letter to your home address they never contact by a phone call.. So plz whenever you receive this kind of calls plz plz dont provide them your data or personal information .
I can imagine how much thought and hard work you must be putting in to come out with something that has bags full of information and can be of some help at least to others. Really appreciate your efforts. Well done and God bless!
I would like to add a thing here, You can use NiYo Card, keep money in indian account, whenever you spend it gets deducted from indian account with the visa exchange rate. I actually got hdfc forex and then realised about Niyo, then got Niyo. Make a vedio about that it can really help a lot of people. Plus there is a site called Instarem for international money transfer they take 5CAD for transferring 1000CAD exchange rates are similar to most. For mistake I opted about for RBC paper statement for getting a proof for OHIP. They had an option attached to it which costed me 2.5 CAD per month for a couple of months as I didn't check my statement properly.
just a suggestion. think about it. I know it has only been a few months that you are in Canada but right now the real estate prices are quite down. As a first time home buyer you also get a rebate of 3000 CAD for your first home purchase. The home loan rates are also very low . I guess right now its 2.6 % . Go to your bank and ask them to get a "Soft check" of your credit rating. a proper check "Reduces" your credit rating as its done normally when you default a card payment or so. Soft check does not harm your credit rating. talk to them that you are thinking of buying a home. with the money you have in the bank you can easily do the down payment rest you take a loan. The home loan advisor will give you an approximate figure of how much you can spend on your home depending on your combined salaries plus your credit rating. e.g if he says you can buy a house worth 400,000 you can buy a 2 bedroom condo easily in Brampton on queens street corridor. the EMI and condo fees (utilities are included in Condo fees) together will be less than the rent you are paying. the loan advisor himself will have / suggest a realtor and a lawyer as they all have to work as a team for a customer. secondly RBC allows a 10000 CAD prepayment without penalty every year. in an year or 2 you can move out to a bigger house and put the condo on rent which gives decent 1200-1500 CAD per month. If you are lucky you might even find a Bank sale (foreclosure) flat with the bank. Just have a talk with them and figure out what is possible. try to stick with the bank you already have an account with as they will give better service. If your realtor is a nice person he or she will even try to get you a set of second hand appliances to start with. this had happened with me my realtor knew another family who was moving out to a bigger house and wanted to give up their stove and refrigerator. both were in very good condition as it was hardly used for 2 years and I got both together for just 400 CAD . To start with i only bought a microwave and blender as new appliance. after about 3 months there was a 90 % sale in Bad Boy furniture and that was when i got my bed, mattress, sofa, coffee table, shelving dining tables ect everything for under 3000 CAD. if you take it slow and steady and have patience for the right time you can save a lot of money and have a fully functional house of your own. If you have a vehicle try going around in neighborhood for Garage sales. lot of people who are moving will sell a lot of their belongings out of their Garage. you will get petti pack pieces of dinner sets, lamps, hand irons, vacuum cleaners small corner tables dining table chairs, lounge chairs, patio furniture ect ect for throw away prices. forget newcomers to Canada people who have lived over 20 years in Canada go Garage sale hunting !! had a Philipino friend - we called her garage queen😂😂. she had a knack for garage finds. she once came across a couple who were married only a few months ago and then got divorced and had laid out all their petti packed wedding gifts out for garage sale!! she got brand new comfortor sets, crockery and so much more for under 200 CAD !! she shipped it all to Philipines as Christmas gifts.
hmm some of this is good advice and some is too generic/misleading. Mortgage contracts vary. Some will allow you to pay much more than 10 g a year on top of your regular payments which is beneficial to many people. A pre-approval for a mortgage is more than jsut a soft check but is required when someone is serious about house purchase. The rebate amount for a new home varies by province as well. Every professional is concerned with their own job as well so I wouldn't say you need to go with whomever the bank recommends as that person will only keep the banks best interest. Due to the new stress test it is more difficult to be approved now than it was in the past even though interest rates are very low and prices have decreased so a good time to buy for sure.
@@canadianjatti its definitely not misleading. i had bought my condo in 2012 so I just shared my experience here. I would never mislead anyone so please be careful about the words you choose. Ive clearly said "think about it" talk about it to your bankers. Of course rules, process ect could be different from then to now but that does not mean im misleading. I personally had got a fantastic team thru my mortgage consultant and so I "Suggested" . about the pre-approval part- If you have read my comment well Ive clearly said that the loan advisor will suggest their eligibility "depending on their salaries and credibility" about the province part- Ive also clearly mentioned Brampton where this couple is presently staying so my comment about the rebate "clearly" talks about Toronto, ON . Again my comment or a harmless "suggestion" is based on my personal experience of home buying in Brampton.
Hey guys..I am a new immigrant, living in Calgary. I was leaving for office this morning when I saw an alert for your new video. I dropped off my bag and tiffin, watched this video on TV and then left for office :) Great content! And thank you for helping fellow immigrants. God bless you both.
Hey, great video. This is very important information to know to make the most of your finances. We were also guilty of some of these early on as immigrants in the US.
You guys have been a real gem in helping people coming to Canada. Although I am still in my intial stage, it will be an honour to talk to you guys. Looking forward to our call in 2 days.!😃😃
Guys I am an immigrant to US for about 20 years and let me share a few of my learnings. You said new immigrants don’t invest, I think that is mistake number one. You don’t have to invest It all, but you should start investing ASAP. If not a big amount then start small. Keep investing every month. Compounding is a big force and the more time you give the money to grow the better it will be. The time will not come back so please start putting money to good use. Secondly don’t be in a hurry to purchase a house. Make sure you have atleast 6 months of emergency money saved and attest 20-30 percent of the down payment.
Hey Guys! Love your videos. Just wanted point out one thing here. And its just my personal opinion, but would love to know your say. The first mistake is not really a mistake when you factor in exchange rate fluctuations. When you came the rates were probably 54 rs but now its 60rs. You may compare the same over 10 year period and you will find that its always a great idea to bring all the money here and invest here even if the rate is 1-1.5%. You will net out more than India due to exchange rates.
Awesome! So informative. Just want to add one point at 6:51 that we can redeem the scene points at various other stores also like Footlocker, Gap, Sephora, Ardene, Harveys etc. The full list is available at their site. As now we cannot use those towards movies, so I redeemed them at Footlocker for new pair of shoes :P
Great job you guys both Navjot and Simran! Everything you told makes sense here and am glad that someone else too is talking about personal finance for newcomers, I am always very excited about this topic so much so that I switched my field and pursued certification in Financial Planning here in Canada! Just one thing that I would like to add, though it is important to save money for downpayment but you should explore other investment options that exist based on your time frame, that might outperform the interest that you earn in the bank. This could be achieved through investing in low risk funds like bonds, mortgage funds. For detailed information talk to a financial advisor who can guide you best and then compare your options.
Regarding Interests rate here, new permanent residents can open Tax Free Savings Account (TFSA) immediately with their banks. They can deposit 6000 CAD each year, invest that amount in mutual fund portfolios (can get 8-10% gain) or hold in high interest saving account (2% gain) with tax free returns . You can also open account for USD with RBC where you can save your money into USD and can take advantage of its increasing value.
Hello dear potato talkies... your video is not playing on LED.. I think there is any fault occurred in video play systems... kindly check it and fix the issue... thank you...
Thank you so much for putting out very relevant content, kudos for putting the phone call snippet! Looking forward to more financial saving and investment tips in Canadian context. Thanks!
Really good job guys...you guys have listed the most common mistakes by new immigrants. Also would like to add one more thing which is the World Financial Group (WFG) calls, promising job offers. They are a legit company, but very similar to a money chain concept. Looking forward to more videos 👍🏽
You can transfer money.. Just open an NRE Account in any bank preferably kotak... nd you can take benefit of change in rate...you dont need to pay even one rs tax
I am a pakistani and considering immigration, I love your videos... There arent many utube channels that I watch but I have been watching your videos and find them so informative, thank you guys 😊 Keep up the good work!
Hey guys, I had a query related to point #1. If I bring just enough money (based on number of family members), can I later transfer more money into my Canadian bank account from my overseas accounts or savings plans? Also is this money brought later taxed in Canada? How do I avoid taxation on my overseas savings which I may transfer into Canada later?
they answered this. Yes, you can transfer more in at anytime. No to the tax question (have never heard of this being an issue) but if you are talking about very large sums of money double check with an accountant in canada
Hey, Can you correct me if I am doing the math right? EQ Bank rate: example 1.50% Daily rate = 1.5/365=0.004% One month return approx = 0.004% x 30 days = 0.12% If someone invests 10K in EQ Bank, the monthly return would be $12? Thanks
Keep sharing such personal experiences and learnings guys.....I follow quite a few channels regarding Canada immigration, express entry and travel but these lil things keep you demarcated and special in a way 😇😇😇
Hi! Any ideas to start building credit history after soft landing (for someone who has received SIN, but are not present physically in Canada already)? Thanks!
Hi Simran, Navjot. Since you both are from Delhi, Can you please suggest how we can sell all our furnitures and main house electronics while moving to canada with whole family. We are not planning to take any furniture or electronics. Looking forward for some help on that. Thanks :)
Hey guys ! I have a doubt .. Regarding the first point: if we take just half the amount , What if the immigration office asks to show the whole amount after landing?
ua-cam.com/video/bTdCv6aDYUk/v-deo.html To meet the minimum qualifications you must: be physically in Ontario for 153 days in any 12‑month period be physically in Ontario for at least 153 days of the first 183 days immediately after you began living in the province make Ontario your primary residence
You can Transfer all your CAD to Indian Banks FCNR , that way you have no Risk of the Exchange speculation of the CAD and you will get a good interest of atleast 3% and upon maturity you can bring it back to Canada in CAD itself ...max incoming charges will be $30 .
It's alright, we all made mistake and learn from them...at least you are there, talking to us now, spreading love like butter on a baked toast...I like watching you guys on my big screen...!! 💕💕💕💕💕💕
Hi, guys you both are doing great.and both of excellent.my husband is in Toronto and I'm in india,hamara PR process ruk gaya hai bcz of corona, other wise.in October mai bhi waha hoti.even meri sister in-law bhi Toronto se December me aaye thi but abhi tak gai nahi hai.so plz aap mujhe waha PR ka kya ho raha hai batayenge.and aap logo ki hindi bahut hi achhi hai.2 saal ho gaye hai wait karte karte.
first was not mistake . there is a thing called interest rate parity which equate difference of interest between two countries with the help of equated rise in forex rate
Thanks for this great video. How are we supposed to show proof of funds then. I had my funds in a FD, which I liquidated as I had to transfer them. But now if I send only half, how will I show the pof as the minimum six months old criteria for pof will not be valid.
@@Potatotalkies your videos are really encouraging.......I am confident now about the whole after seeing your video.....will initiate the process from my end now
Mistakes(with solutions): 1. Getting all the money to Canada. 2. Keeping money in Savings account in Canada. 3. Not using your credit cards. 4. Getting credit card protection. 5. Falling for fake service calls in Canada.
Hey Guys, try to explore Credit Unions in Canada. I use a credit union here in the US, their interest rates on mortgage and auto loans are really competitive compared to traditional banks. For credit cards, if you are planning to travel post COVID and want to use miles, explore the Amex and TD Aeroplan cards. Costco in US also issues credit cards, perhaps they do in Canada too. They provide 4% cashback for CostCo purchases in US. Hope they have something similar in Canada.
Navjyot why don't you analyse the crs pool and predict wht could be the cut off.... It will be a great video to watch... I trust your analytical skills by the way...
As I always say this is the best channel to get genuine knowledge .I really dont know who's that person who dislike .Guys thankyou so much for sharing so much .Being punjabi and from punjab listening u talking hindi in such high way ,really hatts off to u guys .God bless u.Seeing your vlogs I also start thinking to shift to canada
Guys u r rocking and very informative. Bt the thing is, since u make videos in ur native language, it's lil difficult to follow. So jus a humble req, tat why don't u make videos in English coz viewers from down south are many! Thankyou
Our journeys are almost similar, except I arrived 3 months late. Our money got stuck in India, luckily. Me and my wife also opened accounts in Scotia... she took Scene card I took 1% cash back. I didnt opt for CC insurance. Scene can be redeemed in restaurants as well... Isnt it?
Guys you people are making good content.... i started watching your videos when you had 8k subscriber in march before your landing. And now you guys have scored half century .. keep going.
They are doing a good job...also they are cute when one speaks and other moves his/ her head like a chicken... it's cute....
Haha
Hahaha True That
Now watch them in 2x speed.. even funnier!

Hey, Can you correct me if I am doing the math right?
EQ Bank rate: example 1.50%
Daily rate = 1.5/365=0.004%
One month return approx = 0.004% x 30 days = 0.12%
If someone invests 10K in EQ Bank, the monthly return would be $12?
Thanks
Yup.. I think so
When we land should we live in a Airbnb or what do you suggest
I prefer airbnb
Scene card can be used for purchasing stuff with sene points .
As usual very productive video. Thank you

Thanks to both of you to making these kind of sensefull videos.
Badhiya information
Thank you so much for the tips! I respect you guys for all the hard work that you put into all of this despite this not being your full time job 🤗
Thanks for this information .
Hey guys ! I have a doubt .. Regarding the first point: if we take just half the amount , What if the immigration office asks to show the whole amount after landing?
You can show the Indian account as proof and say that you will transfer after opening a bank account in xanada.
Potato Talkies - Canada that makes sense ! You guys are the best :) . I will be moving next month alone . Very anxious :(
Hi Navajot and Simran. Excellent work guys keep it up. A question regarding eqbank interest rate it says everday interest. What exactly is it?
Daily accrual, for example, means interest amounts are added to the account balance every day
Amazing video....
thanks for this informative information
😃😃
Hi,Is Transfer wise a reliable tool to use to transfer money from India to Can?
Done is several times… love it
can we show money in the form of mutual fund holdings and FDs instead of in savings bank account in India?
Does EQ bank pays interest rate monthly or yearly?
Monthly
Hello to both of you...
Excellent video... information worth sharing... thanks a ton... stay blessed always.
When does the medical facility start after pR?
ua-cam.com/video/bTdCv6aDYUk/v-deo.html
To meet the minimum qualifications you must:
be physically in Ontario for 153 days in any 12‑month period
be physically in Ontario for at least 153 days of the first 183 days immediately after you began living in the province
make Ontario your primary residence
You can Transfer all your CAD to Indian Banks FCNR , that way you have no Risk of the Exchange speculation of the CAD and you will get a good interest of atleast 3% and upon maturity you can bring it back to Canada in CAD itself ...max incoming charges will be $30 .
Very very useful information. Specifically the last one.
What about the tax on your interest in savings account??
There is always a tax on your earnings...just like FD's in India
Thanks for guiding us..
Great information, keep helping people
It's alright, we all made mistake and learn from them...at least you are there, talking to us now, spreading love like butter on a baked toast...I like watching you guys on my big screen...!!

first was not mistake . there is a thing called interest rate parity which equate difference of interest between two countries with the help of equated rise in forex rate
Money in eq bank is taxable.please guide
Tax would be on the interest earned by you, similar to FD's in India
Thanks for this great video. How are we supposed to show proof of funds then. I had my funds in a FD, which I liquidated as I had to transfer them. But now if I send only half, how will I show the pof as the minimum six months old criteria for pof will not be valid.
You need to get an updated proof of funds letter from your bank. When we reached Canada, all our funds were still in India and we carried updated pof
Thanks a lot for the info. I have already transferred and Scotiabank has received it. I am coming on 30th. I owe you guys a super coffee for sure!!!!

Hey Guys, try to explore Credit Unions in Canada. I use a credit union here in the US, their interest rates on mortgage and auto loans are really competitive compared to traditional banks.
For credit cards, if you are planning to travel post COVID and want to use miles, explore the Amex and TD Aeroplan cards. Costco in US also issues credit cards, perhaps they do in Canada too. They provide 4% cashback for CostCo purchases in US. Hope they have something similar in Canada.
very helpful informations, thanks a lot for these unusual but important topics...
