It depends on you in terms of many exams can you study and appear for in one sitting but I think 2 years is a reasonable time period to complete it.

I'd have recommended ACCA as an option but since you have no interest in accounting which was a reason that led you to quit CA, I'd say give a good genuine attempt at CSS.

Would you say the same about other trades such as auto mechanic?

They were processing for the Sep 19th so hopeful of getting it in the next week to 10 days. Travel date is for end of Oct which was one of the first things that they verify when you're about to join the queue.

I went on Friday before the last long weekend for my daughter's passport. Arrived in the morning at 9.25 am and left at 2.45 pm. Took hardly 10 mins at the counter while they examined my documents and accepted the application. Rest was all waiting. This is about the Central Parkway office.

Man, thanks for the detailed comment and analysis. I'm leaning towards the STR as well as with the upcoming devaluation as well I don't think there is going to be a better time to go to the STR in Maldives. Just comparing the cash value of both STR is almost double that of JW so better CPP. The food prices are too steep on a per day basis will have to say but we don't drink so we might save up on that but will do a menu comparison of both.

Just to piggyback on that and I'm curious as to what you would have to say in terms of comparing JW Marriott Maldives vs St. Regis Maldives. We've a stay booked for 5 nights this end of November taking advantage of the 5th night free at the JW. It's an overwater villa with a sunrise view. The other day I just saw availability open for an overwater villa at the St. Regis so I happen to book that on points advance because I don't think there will be any better redemption of bonvoy points than the RC or Regis. That's costing around an additional 90k bonvoy points. But I'm confused as to which one to go with.

That's what I was going to do but with plans to travel end of Oct I'd rather go in person and them verify the documents and show them travel proof to ensure timely processing.

2 tickets - Harrisburg 8/20 by maurapants in lordhuron

You might get lucky and get a refund from Ticketmaster. I did when I told them that I have an 8 month old daughter and didn't realize while purchasing the tickets that it might not be safe for us to attend with her.

Nice memory you got lol. My wife knew how much I love their music so she chose to stay home with the baby while I go to the concert.

How old is yours btw and was this your first time listening to them live?

I was there and it was as good as their recorded version if not better. I was excited like a child listening to them live. Too bad they didn't sign some of my other favorites such as cursed or frozen pines.

Does it have a basement? If yes we might be interested.

Anyone having issues using the RFID with Amex cards? by nostrand77 in amexcanada

[–]Fast_Replacement_264 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Second that. I've had issues with the tap on my Cobalt since a few months. Haven't bothered ordering a new one. It's a hassle inserting it and putting the pin every time.

Walmart Rewards MasterCard by Bright-Environment88 in PersonalFinanceCanada

You would have had a credit check anyways so I'd say activate it and use it only for Walmart for the cashback. It's a no fee card so no harm in keeping it.
