CanadaJust realized something
Really, you have to notify the CDN government...

All I did was get my name changing in my passport..

I didn't do anything else, I still have a current BC drivers license in my maiden name and
just use my parents addy for it..

I guess I am just too lazy to do anything else.

I just filed my last tax return for the 2004 year and that was that!

Cheers,
Leanne

CanadaK-3 BC Medical and Maternity Benefits
If you are not paying CDN taxes/nor for medical, then you don't get CDN health insurance as you
are no longer a permanent residence of CDN.

Plus, you have to be working in order to get the EI with Mat leave..
EI=Employment Insurance..

I know, US mat leave sucks compared to CDN and I am still trying to get over that fact..

CanadaPost dated visa
Hi There!

I got my approval for my application in May but I didn't go for my interview until late July
as I wasn't going to move until Sept..

I just delayed my medical appointment and my visa appointment


Good luck!!

Removing Conditions on Residency General DiscussionPassport In old name
I just sent my passport in to have a stamp put in and a new page put in with my new name..

It took 2 weeks and $12CDN..

I did this because I just re-newed my passport 9 mths before I got married..

Cheers!
