Hi, I'm having an issue under the work or activities history. My work experience started in 2022 and I am unable to save& continue my application with these details. Is it because I was unable to work when I was 18?

Hey, I’m Mexican, in my account I received a message saying that my application was approved and I already received a POE letter of introduction, but in this letter there is no information about the eTA that I’m supposed to use to travel to Canada, as for what I understand I don’t need to do a separate application for an eTA right?

Mr, max thank you for your dedication, i need some thoughts on some issues that i incountered. In 2023 i applied to college of north atlantic (newfoundland) and they rejected me. But out of a sudden in 2024 while i almost forget they sent me an email that says i am in waiting list. Then last week they sent me a LOA and tell me to deposit to receive PAL. i am feeling that they just accepted me just to fill their quotas of PAL system, if that so what are they odds of me getting permit.

Hi Max, great video, I'm applying as an international student, and I have an offer and letter of acceptance from a Canadian University. However, I'm taking my spouse and daughter along with me. I have chosen "yes" in the part where it says, "Do you want to apply for more than 1 person at the same time" in the application, which showed "Manage group" with a table asking to add members. My question is, do I need to add myself only and consider the questions and docs inside for the whole family? or does this step need to be done for each member? where questions inside want to be logical as they are coming with me.? please answer as it is urgent, thanks

if im applying for an undergraduate degree and my tuition for 4 years is 140k and my living cost for 4 years is 60k, when they ask for funds available do i add them up still even though i don't have that much money right now but will (proven through my parent's payslip) in the future? also can i have more than 1 financial sponsor? my mom is already financially capable but i have my brother and aunt both in the US who already plan to help with cost but can i use them to strengthen my financial ability in the form? if yes, where do i add their ties to me and their bank statements too?
