    Hi Yulia. If I open an account in my country (let's say ScotiaBank. We have this bank in our country), then can I put my money in that account and then use that money in Canada? I mean carry out some transfers or payments with that ScotiaBank account in Canada?

      When I opened my first Canadian bank account in March this year (with Royal Bank of Canada) I was staying in a hotel for two weeks. The bank used my hotel address and then when I moved to my apartment I went into the app and changed the address. The bank also told me that they would hold off sending my debit card until I changed the address and requested the card. All worked out fine.

    Opening a bank account is a crucial first step to financial success. It's like planting the seed for your money tree. 💰💼 Over the years, I've found that having multiple accounts for different financial goals, whether it's a high-yield savings account, a brokerage account for investments, or a business account, has been key to growing my wealth.I wasn't financially free until my 30s, and I'm still in my 30s. I've bought my second house, earn on a monthly basis through passive income, and achieved 4 out of 5 goals. Investing is the wise decision I made

      By working with Regina Louise Collaro, you can benefit from her expertise and potentially achieve better returns on your investments than if they were to make investment decisions on their own. Additionally, she can provide personalized advice and guidance tailored to your unique financial situation and goals, which can help you make better-informed decisions and achieve their financial objectives more effectively.

      It's surprising to see Regina Louise Collaro mentioned here, and I've always had conflicting thoughts about hiring an investment advisor. Just to clarify, I began working with Regina in 2019, and she handles approximately 70% of my investments, while I personally manage the remaining 30%. My belief has always been that I am most invested in my own money, but Regina helped me understand the value of their extensive knowledge about current market conditions and future trends.

    It is worth to mention that some banks have special programs for newcomers (not only for students). For example, you might have a bank account without any fees for the first year. Is it also possible to obtain a regular credit card if you are a newcomer but you have a job (for example when you moved to Canada by work permit)

    Your Social Security, no matter which country it is from, is also a bank acocunt. If you have a driving license, it is also bank account. And there are insurances attached to it.
    And you start accounts all the time. Where special rules rule what you can do with such an account....

    Hi Julia, I love the content on this video. I know that you did a 1+1 postgrad program and I remember you had said that you need to update your SIN number eventually. I am about to graduate from my first program in 3 weeks. I have a 4 month break between my programs. I have a SIN number but have not started working as of yet, will start working soon. I was wondering what is the process of getting a new SIN number and am I supposed to apply for it after I have applied with IRCC for my study permit extension for the second program?
    Thank you in advance for your time and consideration,
    Slobodanka.

    Can a new PR holder open GIC a/c (or only for students) to Deposit as savings anyways doesn't give any return and for a new comer investment right away is not in the recent plans. ?
    Also, I guess banks do not ask for SIN. And Scotia bank allows PR or student holders to open an international acocunt to transfer money and once u land, u can have thr local a/c activated with passport, status proof and immigration form received at the airport. Kindly feel free to add your comments ❤
