Question

We are waiting for permanent residency in Canada. Can my daughters do homeschooling - what are the costs?

Answer 1

Yes you can homeschool. You'll have to find out about the specific provincial laws for where you plan on being. DON'T rely on HSLDA Canada--they haven't updated their site in who knows how long. Try instead doing a search for Canada homeschool laws. There should be a flora.org site or something like that which will pop up.

You don't pay for homeschooling in Canada. Or anywhere, for that matter.

Answer 2

Canada is a big country.  What province do you live in?  The rules vary from province to province.  Some pay you and others don't, but they all allow you to homeschool.

Answer 3

I'm not sure where in Canada you live. I'm in BC and am a homeschooling mom of seven. Homeschooling can coast very little or it can cost a ton. Some families choose to buy expensive, it's all there in the box materials, others use the library and buy used. We're in the middle. I try to buy used or split the cost with someone else, we live in a small town which has a tiny library so getting books from there isn't a good option for us.

Some distance education programs will give you money to spend on educational resources.

I suggest looking at what the laws in your province/territory are by doing a google search.

Happy home learning!

Answer 4

try looking it up on the homeschool legal defense association website.  they might have the legal info that you need to know or a link to a website that can help you.  good luck!!!!
