Do people living in Canada with a worker or student visa get free health care?
I'm from the United States, and I might try to apply for college at McGill. Do foreigners living in Canada get the same health care as citizens, or is it limited for foreigners?

It's limited to foreigners. I guess once you establish residency in Canada then you'd be eligible.
2 :
Nobody in Canada gets "free" healthcare.
3 :
you must be a Canadian citizen or a legal permanent resident to get health care in Canada
4 :
People living legally and working in Canada are eligible. There is private insurance for students through the universities. You pay a fee.
5 :
Are you aware you can be on your parents insurance until age 26?

Illegal U.S immigrant, get into Canada with student visa possible?
Illegal U.S immigrant, get into Canada with student visa possible?
I am a senior in high school wanting to study Law in Canada. I am illegal in the U.S though. Can I apply for a student visa? If denied how could I get into Canada if I was born in Venezuela. Thank you and please no rude answers. I have a Venezuelan passport but I live in the U.S, so should I go back to Venezuela and from there go to Canada or would it work if I go from here with a Venezuelan passport to Canada? Sorry for all the question's but I really have to know.

You need a passport to get into Canada now, and since you are illegal, I doubt you would get one without being found out. Good luck.
2 :
I would not advise applying for a student visa, you will be denied and possible deported. I reall am not sure how you can get into Canada. All you need is a passport so if you have one they will just let you walk across the border it will be fine.
3 :
go back to Venezuela and then apply for visa, you cant apply from US and you may face deportion.

3 :
He'll need his passport, the student visa in good order and unexpired, and a tourist visa to enter Canada for his vacation.
4 :
Your friend will need their passport, an unexpired F1 visa (for re-entry into the U.S.), their I-20 (with the 3rd page signed by the DSO) and of course a separate visa to Canada if they are citizens of country which requires one.

just a student visa, passport, and school information. you should be able to get another permit but a may take awhile.
2 :
Well, you should replace your documentation for your study permit but to travel within Canada you will probably not need it. To fly within Canada you have to be able to prove who you are which, under Transport Canada regulations, you must have a valid piece of government issued photo ID which a passport is. For a complete list you can check the Transport Canada website (link below)
3 :
In Canada? You don't even need a passport, as long as you have some kind of photo ID. You aren't crossing any international borders and there are no checkpoints between the provinces and territories.
4 :
For a flight within the country, any government photo ID is enough; your passport is more than enough. They don`t check residency status for a domestic flight.

As an international student in Canada, how much income tax can i get back?
I have a work permit at the moment and i'm doing an internship which is a part of my University Degree, so i'm still enrolled as a full time student but i'm actually working full time, 40 hrs a week making around $45k a year (before income tax deduction).

I dont think so. The CRA only requires that you are a resident, not a citizen in order to be responsible for taxes. You can call the CRA annonymously to find out.
2 :
As a non-resident, you are taxed in Canada on your Canada-sourced income. You need to file a tax return here. However, you may be able to take a Foreign Tax Credit on the tax return of your country of origin for the tax paid here. You don't say where else you pay taxes. Also, the fact that you started working half way through the year means it's likely that too much payroll taxes have been withheld, so you probably will get a partial refund.

No one can answer that question "exactly" without details. If you are medical student going for your PhD. If so, you'll get a work permit as part of your medical internship program and there will almost certainly be a job waiting for you. If you are an unskilled person barely able to speak French or English, then your chances of finding a job and getting a work permit are pretty much zero. What skills do you have? What type of work experience to you have? Which university are you studying at? How is your English or French? Are you looking for work over the summer or part time work while going to university? Does your university program have a coop (which accepts foreign students) or does it have some type of work study program? Is this a graduate program or undergraduate program (can you work for a professor in say research)? Are you looking for reasonable pay or merely work experience (i.e. go work for a charity?) Have you lived in the area before? Do you have family or friends to help you source jobs? How much time do you have to look for a job, etc. In terms of getting a work visa while you are student, it fairly easy if the job is related to your school work, if it is on campus (many jobs there don't even require a visa), or if you have a valid job offer. In terms of finding a job... that comes down to your skills, training, experience, where you are, the type of job, etc.
2 :
Usually a student is allowed to work around 20 hours a week while on a student visa. Difficulty in finding one depends on which city/town your university is in. Most succeed providing their English (or French) is intelligible.

Refugee from what? Canada's refugee system is not geared to people who just want to go to school, it is aimed at those who are fleeing persecution or war. You do not appear to qualify. Go to your closest Canadian Embassy, they can provide you with information on eligibility for a student visa. But as a student, you will be expected to support yourself while in Canada. Even refugees do not receive government support to go to school, any more than Canadian citizens do. All the refugee system will do is give you income support until you have a job.
2 :
If you have financial problems, claiming as a refugee isnt going to work because you will have to pay the govt back eventually. Instead, since you have the education, apply as a skilled worker in MB or Sask. These provinces offer free provincal enterance, and if youhave friends or family here that can give you a hand, even better. If you are jewish, see the Jewish federation, they can support you. Check out their websites. Maybe this would be an other option instead of claiming as a refugee www.immigrationmanitoba.ca www.immigration.gov.sk.ca and further info, if still liking the refugee idea, ry: ww.cic.gc.ca

To find out which ones participate, go to www.fafsa.ed.gov and select "Search for school codes" under the #1 column. After selecting the 2008-09 year and that you are "searching" rather than "verifying", select "Canada" for the first drop-down box "What state is the school in?"

Yes, it is entirely possible. Canadian schools, though not well-known in the U.S. are certainly valid as they meet any standards you will need. Medical schools in the U.S. would certainly accept a degree from a Canadian school. You would still need to write the MCAT and have good marks but it shouldn't be a hurdle to study in Canada. As an FYI, Canadian medical schools are quite good as well, and generally as a whole rank higher than those in the U.S. because SOME of the American schools are sub-standard, whereas the relatively few in number in Canada are all held to high standards. This is a major reason why American hospitals try to recruit Canadian-trained doctors - the know they will be up to standards. Furthermore, education is subsidized in Canada and, while Canadians clearly get the majority of the benefits, international students would still pay a tuition at medical schools that is FAR below those of American schools (Univeristy of Toronto medical school, which is the largest in North America, has a tuition for Canadians of less than $20,000 per year. Although it may be more for an international student, it would not be anywhere near the $50,000 tuition seen at some American schools). Your undergrad will be cheaper as well. Hope this helps

You need to apply for a student Visa before you try to fly into the country. You can't get one when you land. You also need to prove you have been accepted by a school in Canada.
2 :
If you're planning on staying in Canada for 6 months or less then you don't need a visa, but if you're actually planning on coming here and studying for the entire duration of a course at a college or university, then you need to obtain a student visa BEFORE coming to Canada. You have to send in an application along with a passport photo and biometric information, and allow the Canadian government to do a background check.

It's not quite that simple. First you have to apply to a Canadian school and be accepted, then you have to apply to Canadian Immigration for a student visa, and then you fly into the country. I don't know who told you you could get a student visa at the border, but it isn't so.

I know that if you have the proper documents you can get a student visa at the border between the U.S. and Canada, but howabout if I fly from Spokane, Washington into Calgary, AB? I'm a citizen of the states.

When applying to university/college in Canada, who is considered a "mature student"?
When applying to university/college in Canada, who is considered a "mature student"?
At what age are students required to claim, "mature student status" when applying to university/college in Canada?

This does not have much to do with age. It really just means somebody who is not applying right out of high school. It could be as little as a year later or it could be a retired person. Check the admission requirements of the particular university which interests you.

I just moved to Canada as a student.I feel so isolated and alone,can't make friends.What should I do?
I can't take it anymore, this is not what I was expecting. I don't have anything to go back to, still this situation is so depressing. I try my best to socialize and meet new people but none of my relations end up to be a good one, and they don't last long; so besically I don't have any friends!

dude, be a man and take it it's not by crying and asking support on the Internet you're gonna do something about it to your feet and grow a sack

My sister also moved to Canada and had the same problem. It will take a while, try to keep positive, it took her a lot of time to blend in, but eventually, she did.

Social skills can pretty much be associated around the subject of emotional intelligence: http://www.google.com/search?q=emotional+intelligence+articles&ie=utf-8&oe=utf-8&aq=t&rls=com.yahoo:en-US:official&client=firefox-a I found I had to get rid of all negative thoughts and words for a while, we live in such a negative world now. Especially negative thoughts about people. They almost seem to be able to read you mind, gestures and facial expressions that come out when you think negatively about them or even life. I would definitely look up some things on positive psychology, attitudes, people/social skills and the like. It seems that you and I just have to learn the hard way, but everything broke for me when I decided to help people and developed intuition. We all use intuition more than we realize, but learning how to do it right shifted everything in my life to the better. I think it will have that affect on everyone. Here's a hint as to it's importance in thinking straight: http://intuition.viviti.com I attribute all my troubles from not listening to my intuition and learning how to use it.
