in Canada, depending on the province, you are allowed to use any drivers license from another country for 3 months. I personally known guys who used their UK license for a year. Unless you get stopped by the same cop after the 3 months.
Apply for the visa yourself. This is the best way. An agent asked for 90k, and also a trip to Loas. I applied myself and got it in 3 days. I had the funds, so I did it.
Find the money, even if you borrow it for a few months.
you have to show the money in your personal chequing account. I read somewhere a guy was denied because he showed proof he had the money in his business account.
