Moving to Ontario From Quebec

Living in Ontario
1

Hi,

Currently we are in Quebec with my family (Wife, two children 3 and 5 years old)

We want to move to Burlington, we don’t know anyone there but we think that city can be appropriate for us.
I need a lot of information about all, job, housing, children’s school and kindergarten, etc.

We are (me and my wife) hispanics, but we are Canadian citizens, our children both were born in Canada; we want to know if we have the right to take the government’s english courses?

Is any latino american cooperative to help new comers?
I’m programmer and my wife is Plublic Administrator and we have canadian work experience.

We appreciate all the information that you can give us.

John.

Hello there,

I am a resident of Quebec and a Canadian citizen at the moment, however, I am planning to move to Ottawa for studies in August 2018.

I am getting married in December and will be sponsoring my soon-to-be Husband in the United States.

The moving will happen during the application process time.

What do I have to do to inform that I will be moving to the immigration office and what does that say about the Quebec Selection program?

Will they refuse my application due to moving?

Thank You So Much
Harshi.
