I am currently situated in the US and plan to do a landing in Canada for PR stamping. Any recent experiences going through this? Can I just land, get the stamping and fly back? Or do I need to wait back for negative covid test?

I'd advise at a minimum, spending a few hours to go get your SIN as you will need that for practically everything in Canada, even opening a virtual bank account.

I did a landing a a border last year November 2020. We basically drove to the border and asked them if we can do a landing and return. The border security let us do that. We completed the paperwork within an hour and they showed us the way to turn around back to the US. We didnt need any covid test. I dont know if situations have changed but wanted to share our experience

Hi all,
I graduated during Covid with a double major in business administration and business management with a minor in marketing and magically ended up in sales because I needed a job. I’m about to take a data analytics course to make an attempt to break into that field. I’m currently looking for a mentor to help guide me during this time. Also, if anyone is willing to look over my resume and give me tips on how to make it more presentable for recruiters in DA that would be very helpful. Thanks
