Would you mind sharing your timeline, or at least when you completed the bootcamp / interview? Thanks.

Very random but…..
May i ask about the number that called? I missed a call from a + 519 number today and am now scared It was them and I missed it. I doubt it but you know, Just being wildly optimistic over here haha since I have a similar timeline!

Re: YYZ Fall VFR
Can confirm about the voicemail, they called me when I was overseas for the offer. I first listened to the voicemail about 4 days after they left it, and they honored the offer.
This was for YWG however.

One already exists if you are interested. Not very active unless someone has a question though.
I would say though just go through and memorize/understand the stuff in ABC, its not too hard.
They say 40 hours but most people would say its closer to 80-100
No need to memorize anything from IATS but would still go through it for a genenral understanding. They go over the stuff you need to know from IATS in ABC. Don't spend more than 4-6 hours on IATS cause none of it will be tested. (Other than Icing I believe, which is covered in ABC)

Re: YYZ Fall VFR
Hi all, congrats to everyone. I also received a YYZ VFR Nov offer. Did people move to discord to chat? The link previously provided says that it's not valid or I need permission.

Re: YYZ Fall VFR
Congrats, No I also got the same error!
Question for those in the course, Do you all live in YYZ? I have to move back and the rental market is SCARY lol, wondering if anyone else is experiencing the same thing haha
Re: YYZ Fall VFR
I would suggest looking at student housing for one of the universities in the area. Look at UTM, York, Centennial. Generally speaking the landlords near colleges are scummier than the ones near universities. You can look for sublets where people let for 4-8 months at a time, usually beginning on January, May, and September. In the event you get CTd this would also limit the financial aspect of being binded to a year+ lease (and keep in mind you would be out of salary too).
