What you need to prepare for the school month?

Approaching September, many young students are ready to leave home! Will many parents and students be worried about the first departures? Do not be afraid. Today, we will tell us what the precautions are for the first time coming to Canada.

The first step, the must–have documents when going through customs (please take them with you in the bag!!)

1.    Original passport

2. Immigration approval letter - This document is just as important as your passport!

3. Letter of Adimission;

4. Tuition receipt or tuition money order (if you have not received the school receipt before departure);

5. Accommodation: 1) If you live on campus, carry a school accommodation confirmation letter; 2) If you live in homestay / relatives’ and friends’, please bring homestay name, full address and contact information;

6. If under 18 years of age: 1) If traveling alone, be accompanied by a parent's permit to travel alone; 2) To bring a notarial certificate from a guardian in China and Canada;

7. If the school address is not in Toronto / Vancouver, you need to transit, you need to buy a interline ticket;

8. The students had better open phone roaming; easy to pick up when the contact and reported to the parents peace, or to solve some unexpected situations; 

The second step, the documents you should bring when school registration!

According to the degree of enrollment in different schools, the requirements are different things Oh!

1. Beginner / High School Students: Original Passport, New Junior / High School Transcript, Disease Control Certificate, Passport Photo;

2. Diploma / University: original passport, college / university transcript (if any) and translation, high school diploma certificate, high school transcript (in both English and Chinese), language score (if any);

3. Master: Original passport, Bachelor's degree certificate, university transcript (Chinese or English), diploma and language score (if any).

4. Before the start of school: 1) 1-2 weeks prior to the start of the school year, begin freshmen's enrollment, entrance exams and admission procedures. 2) If the student is under 18 years of age, be sure to notify the guardian of Canada before arrival at Canada. , The landlord's name, address, postal code, telephone number, etc. (if the guardian is not the same as the host family); because the immigration officer may call the guardian on the guardian's certificate to confirm the above information when entering the country; 

1. First of all on the plane, each passenger needs to fill out a declaration of entry documents - see the sample below; the document and the passport together, need to show when entering. Do not know how to fill can ask flight attendants.

2. Exit at Vancouver or Toronto airport, follow Arrival, then visit Canada Immigration, follow the line and bring along the required documents for the clearance.

Immigration officials may ask a few questions so students need to be familiar with their post-arrival arrangements, including the name of the school attended, location, length of study, major and type of study, approximate amount of tuition, accommodation form, address, name of pick-up And contact information.

Entry requirements:

1) Remember to get a Study Permit at the landing Canada Immigration Department

2) To see the immigration officials politely say hello, truthfully answer the questions and produce the corresponding documents, if you are unsure or do not understand the immigration officer's question, you can say Pardon me? (Please repeat?), I really do not understand, you can request translation I really do not undestand, can I have a translator?);

3) It is not recommended to bring a lot of cash, if the cash is more than 10,000 Canadian dollars, you need to declare (remember, is to declare, not to tax you);

4) Remember not to bring fresh plants, fruits and meat food.

3. The Immigration Officer will then issue a Study Permit to the student - see the sample below. This document is very important and is a proof of student's identity in Canada. Students should check whether the above information is accurate, including their name, date of birth, etc .; Future students should pay attention to the expiration date, and renew themselves online or contact the Canadian immigrants for renewal within 90 days of the expiration date; Card, that is, we usually say "big sign", in Canada to study during the period must be maintained within the validity period.

Immigration visa (also called a small sign) affixed to the passport at the time of approval of the student visa - please see the sample below is for immigration, the Canadian immigrants suggest that students next time out of Canada, the best to determine the period of validity . Because in some extreme cases, if visa application is refused, students will not be able to return to Canada for reading (even if they hold a valid learning license). Of course, if there is no exit normally, the visa does not matter even if it expires.

4. Get the admission permit, you can go baggage, and then out of the airport lobby, or turn back to take luggage is more troublesome. There are students who need to turn for the better. Baggage usually needs to be taken out of customs, with student permission, and then go to the domestic terminal to continue the flight.

The fourth step, how much luggage size!

The specifications and weight of the baggage should be checked with the ticketing office / airline when purchasing the ticket. The general provisions are as follows: Two pieces of baggage are generally free to be checked; the weight of each piece of baggage shall not exceed 23 kg (Air Canada, Cathay Pacific); the total length, breadth and height of the baggage shall not exceed 158 cm; the amount of small baggage carried shall not exceed 10 Kg, width and height should not exceed 23cmX 40cm X 55cm; your address in Canada (which can be temporary) firmly affixed to the box handle the label; in case of lost luggage, the airline will be sent to this address luggage .

Five, on the purchase of temporary insurance:

If a student arrives in Canada more than a week earlier than the start of the program, we recommend that students purchase temporary medical insurance, preferably before they leave for immediate entry upon arrival, as nonresidents see a doctor in Canada, hospitalization and treatment are expensive, and temporary health insurance Calculated on a daily basis, the minimum premium per day less than 2-3 Canadian dollars.

Six, luggage preparation:

1. Documents: passport photos: save electronic version, and rinse a few more, the future in Canada, when the school reports or other matters may be used; birth certificate, more than 18 years of age, no criminal record of notarization certificate; the future of these documents May be used

2. Articles of Clothing: Although Canada is colder in winter, because Canada is a central heating, thick sweaters, high-necked sweaters, etc. do not need more belts because the interior is warm. T-shirts, light sweaters, thin jackets can prepare several more sets. Down jacket, snow boots, hats, gloves, etc. is a necessity.

3. Articles of daily necessities: You can bring a set of sheets, quilt cover, pillow, pillowcase. These things with a vacuum bag after pumping vacuum, do not take place, light weight. Students who live in private school dormitories do not need to bring them, and the school offers quilts, pillows, sheets, drapes and changes to students once a week. Do not need to bring the necessary bedding "bed", because Canada does not have a domestic board with the bed, are direct sleep mattress.

4. Stationery Series: Class more students can properly prepare a notebook, a few pens. Stationery does not need to bring too much, Moreover, teachers here like to buy a standard laptop, so even if the students brought from their own country, the teacher saw that failure will allow students to buy again.

5. Toiletries: towels, toothbrushes, combs, travel face cleanser, shower gel, shampoo, skin care products, soap boxes, just arrived in foreign life unfamiliar, with the band as much as possible with the trouble to go out to buy trouble . Similar items are daily necessities that are inseparable every day, it is best to come from the country with a small bag of travel outfit, will not add too much baggage burden, so familiar with the environment to buy new. The use of electric toothbrush students should pay attention to the voltage problem, the Canadian rated voltage of 110V, not all electric toothbrushes have transformer function, please find the toothbrush handle voltage information and then decide whether to carry.

6. Drug articles: Drugs can bring some from the country, especially standing medicine. Antibiotics are prescription drugs in Canada and doctors rarely give patients. Pain killers, antipyretics and anti-allergy medicines (antihistamines) do not require domestic belts at all, natives in Canada also have a lot of use, and their quality and safety are good and their varieties are great.

7. Food articles: In food, most food is not required to bring, there are many varieties can not be brought into the customs. So just have to prepare some aircraft to eat. Food can not bring, try not to bring. After all, there are some things stuffing, which if it contains meat and egg yolks will make trouble. Once you first check out the box and checked out contraband goods, you boarded the list of customs since then, each time you enter Canada, will be unpacking inspection, will increase the length of the journey and waiting time. Meat products (dried meat, dried meat and sausages and other foods) must not be brought. Some people say that they brought a lot has never been found, it can only say that good luck, if checked out or very troublesome.

8. Electronics: American Standard conversion plug is a very important luggage in a weapon. Canada rated voltage 110V, the domestic is usually 220V. Better use of the plug is inserted in the socket, and then take a domestic row, so that computers, mobile phones, cameras can take power. If carrying a laptop to bring the domestic library or cafe is very convenient.

Plug-in, plug-in, computer, mobile phone, MP3, camera and all electronic products wiring and charger, removable hard disk, U disk, cable, earphone, microphone, mouse, mouse pad, video first- carry. Every kind of product that needs charging should match a charger or wiring, do not forget.

Laptops, tablets, cell phones and other high-end electronic products in the same paragraph under the same conditions, it is indeed cheaper in Canada. Students interested in such products may wish to Canada to buy again.

9. Gifts

All foreign students will want to bring some small gifts with Chinese characteristics, whether it is to send professors, send classmates or send friends, Chinese gifts are very popular. But do not bring too much, so as not to be checked by the customs. More suitable for carrying gifts, including silk purse, paper cutting, tea, a small cross-stitch and so on.
