Budget and Expenses

Before arriving in Nova Scotia, plan your expenses carefully. You will need housing, food, and transportation while you search for employment. Be certain that you will have easy access to your funds, and try to set aside some money for emergencies. Costs of short-term housing and transportation will vary depending on where you settle. You may find it helpful to contact a local immigrant assistance organization for advice. To find an organization in your area, visit Community Profiles.
