Advice what to know before moving to JA

10 years ago

Good Evening,

I am planning on moving to JA in April and would like some advice regarding a few areas;
1) Can anyone share with me what is required if I do not have a job at this time but will probably be hired fairly quickly upon my arrival - Work permit. I have a TRN number. is there anything else I should be consider doing or preparing before I leave?
2) if I am shipping belongings to JA from T.O Canada can anyone recommend a shipping company?
3) I and my boyfriend are going to be living either in MOBay or Kingston area based on my work opportunity and we are looking for a safe community such as a gated community can anyone recommend an affordable gated communities in either area?
4) we will also be shopping for a vehicle... any advice?

Thank you
