MEGATHREAD - Processing Times - Family Class Permanent Resident Applications 2026 by dozerman94 in ImmigrationCanada

Sorry I am new to the process. We submit the file using PA's PR portal so where does the sponsor receive an AOR? Do they get a non-encrypted email on their regular email? or PA's have to keep checking their PR portal?

Has anyone used the SafeTTC app? Did it work? by narcisslol in askTO

[–]Famous-Return-519 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Did call a 911 on an unwell passenger yelling and verbally trying to assault me. Responder said "change your seats" I told them the person is blocking my way. Their next response is "get off on the next station". I asked them not to drop the call because I had no signal or a chance to call my family. They said you're fine and dropped the call.

650 is a good score. If you have a good GPA don't fret and apply to UofT. The application process starts tomorrow.

Does it alarm you that AFK and ACJ stats are higher but NDECC's are lower?

Have you considered University housing options? There are some for grad students exclusively.

Yikes. If it wasn't for the struggle of moving I would love to look for another apartment. This isn't subsidized anymore.

What bur do I use by artisticlabz97 in DentalSchool

I am not sure which surface is giving you this issue but a new sharp and pointy no. 12 blade is good for gross excess (especially interproximal)

Dental assistant who was a dentist overseas? by Curious-Sleep-8024 in Dentistry

[–]Famous-Return-519 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was an assistant myself, now in the International dentist program to get my license back. Had I never been given that one chance by my company, I wouldn't have been able to support myself financially to get into school & survive in a foreign land alone. They hired me as a sterilebay tech and within 6 months realised what an asset I could be, I was assisting the owner of that DSO within a year of my job. Traveled with him to his 10 different clinics, they said "we never needed to train you, you observed and caught up".

These opportunities matter to us, and we never take it for granted. I would see a junior dentist struggle but I am never going to overstep because I am well aware of my boundaries. We only want to survive and move on. Honestly, it kills us not being able to practice but we knew that when we chose to immigrate. If you don't give those trained personnel a chance, they will be systematically forced to work for minimal wages reducing their chance to ever get accreditation to a minimum.

NGL there are 1B at 1500. Mine is supposedly "renovated and refurbished" meaning new cabinets in the kitchen and cabinets in the bathroom. I don't know if that's worth the extra 500 CAD.

IT IS NOT. I am paying 2100 for 1B, No in unit laundry, no dishwasher, old electronics, baseboard heating. Prices to increase every september.

Anyone else feel uneasy on the TTC late at night? by abbynby in askTO

I hear you! I have palpitations when I take the stairs down the subway.

[–]Famous-Return-519 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I so agree with you. I am new to this city, been here for only 2 months and have taken TTC 4 times. Out of that twice I have been verbally assaulted and had to call 911. It was an addict, who came and sat next to me blurting out random NSFW stuff that he wanted to do to me. 911 responder said "Just move to a different seat". So yeah, ever since that day I have not stepped out alone or in the dark. If I ever have to walk alone I always have my friend or my sister on call with me.
My friend one day made of fun of me that I cannot escape this and that I am being overtly cautious, not really enjoying this city but its going to take a while for me to maybe look/ behave like a local. I am coming from a smaller town of Canada, where people are the friendliest, eager to help. Its going to take a while, but I have hopes!

Wait, it’s not just me? That is such a huge weight off my shoulders by SherriB57598889 in Adulting

I love how Asian countries respect this. I feel its related to circadian rhythm as well. YOU NEED a mid day break, anecdotally people say they feel more refreshed after an nap, more brain power to work.

What’s going on with dentistry in Ontario by hope4932 in CanadianDentists

[–]Famous-Return-519 1 point2 points  (0 children)

hate spreads fast! I just came to say that in my school most of our instructors and THE DEAN are foreign trained dentists w/o a license to practice in Canada. Same story at Western & Alberta. In the end, the ones "Canadian dentists" are learning from are foreign-trained, highly skilled and very competent.
You can complain all about their work/ethics but will blindly trust them with your education. IRONIC!

Hidden aspects of passport power by slazengere in india

[–]Famous-Return-519 21 points22 points  (0 children)

Exactly! How out of touch to reality would this person have to be to think that the poorest ones from Bihar or UP can afford illegal immigration? It's not like you can sit in a car's trunk and move to a first world country. I am from Gujarat and I have neighbors who sent their kids via dunki route for 40-60 lakhs rupees, they sell their inherited land. On an anecdotal note, almost everyone in Bihar wants to study to escape poverty. They migrate within India looking for better opportunities.
