Do I need to have a proof of residence (lease agreement, utility bills, etc.) to open a bank account? I will be moving to Canada on a work permit and trying to figure out if I can open an account while I am in an Airbnb for the first couple of months. Appreciate any advice.

Nope! Actually you can also apply online once you get your Work Permit with RCB bank! ( thats the only bank right now providing the online services )

I hope this helps

Very helpful, thank you so much! Called RCB and they were very helpful. They suggested I open it once I am in Canada since I am not a US citizen/GC holder.

I’m taking the SPHR in less than 2 months and haven’t started studying for it. How difficult is it?

I just can’t seem to motivate myself to do it, I’m so mentally burnt out at the end of the day from a high stress HR job, the last thing I feel like doing is studying HR!

Any suggestions on how to remove these facial hairs around my lips and chin without the bumps?

I’m a Canadian citizen but I never lived in Canada.
Currently in 🇨🇭 and planning to move to Canada for the experience. However it seems that the salaries are super low compared to the US or Switzerland. Is that because of the high taxes? Does $82k in Vancouver/Calgary allows you to live decently or am I gonna struggle? Current TC USD92k (CHF83k) and it would take a big hit by moving to Canada. But at the same time 🇨🇭 is one of the most expensive countries in the world.
