2021.08.26 - BC省疫苗護照 - 外國疫苗怎麼辦
BC省日前宣布9/13/2021開始沒有持有疫苗護照的省民將會無法去餐廳用餐，參加公眾活動。

許多在國外已經打過兩劑疫苗的省民或是家屬，非常擔心會遭受不必要的限制。我們事務所特別聯繫了Health Link BC了解詳情。根據卑詩疾病管制局BCCDC的最新規定，凡是施打過WHO認可的疫苗者，不需要重新接種疫苗，這意味著BC省的疫苗護照有很大的機率會承認以下疫苗。需要注意的是省民需要將正式的國外疫苗紀錄登錄到 https://www.immunizationrecord.gov.bc.ca/

List of WHO approved COVID-19 vaccines:

Pfizer/ BioNTech

Moderna

AstraZeneca

Covishield

Janssen (Johnson & Johnson)

SinoPharm (Beijing) / Covilo / BBIBP-CorV

Sinovac/ CoronaVac



BC government just announced a new Vaccine Passport policy. Starting Sep 13, 2021, the BC resident without valid Vaccine Passport will not be allowed to enter into restaurant, gym and public area.

Many residents and their family who took Vaccine outside of Canada are worried about the new restrictions. Our firm contact Health Link BC for details. According to the newest rule from BCCDC, the resident, who got WHO approved Covid-19 vaccines, does not need to retake extra shot. It means BC Vaccine Passport will probably accept the following vaccines. Please be advised that the residents have to upload the Foreign Vaccine Record to https://www.immunizationrecord.gov.bc.ca/

Your immunization record will be entered into the Provincial Immunization Registry. This usually takes about 2 to 3 weeks. Once entered in the Provincial Immunization Registry you can access your immunization record online through Health Gateway.

2021.06.02 - 禮物卡詐騙

詐騙年年有今年特別多，讓我來分享一則今年四月的親身經歷。
時間序如下
(1) 於Save on Food 購買了面值 $25 跟$50 的Petro Canada 加油卡。
(2) 隔日加油的時候發現，$25元的油卡可以正常使用，而$50的卻顯示餘額為$0
(3) 原本以為是啟用沒成功，隨即發現是遭遇到詐騙。
(4) 加油機上顯示卡片代號 為A1234 餘額為零 ，卡片背面卻顯示 B34_6
(5) 上網查詢餘額的時候發現，卡片代碼少一碼無法查詢，嘗試缺少的代碼之後發現餘額為$50
(6) 個人判斷，歹徒可能是將我手上卡片的複製到空白卡去，然後將磁條修改為 $0元的卡片放回架上，而我付款的時候掃條碼就讓歹徒複製的卡片被啟用
(7) 解決方案，立刻回到Save On Food 通知服務台，服務台將卡片以及資料收走後，通知Petro Canada 並且於隔日通知退款。

建議大家，盡量不要購買架上開放空間的大額禮卡($50以上)，或是盡量購買如Amazon包裝精美繁複的禮卡，可以減少遭受詐騙的體驗。

2021.06.02 Gift Card Scams
Scams become a part of your life, let me share my own experience which happens in April 2021.
TIME Line
(1) Purchase $25 and $50 Petro Canada gift card at Save On Food.
(2) Next day, $25 GC was used without an issue, but $50 GC showed $0 balance.
(3) My first though was activation issue, but realized it is a scam.
(4) The pump showed card # A1234 and the balance is $0, but the card # on the back showed B34_6.
(5) When I tried to check the price online, due to missing one digit, the system can not show the number. Try nine times and figure out the online balance is $50.
(6) In conclusion, the criminal copied my magnetic stripe information to a blank card and overwrite the magnetic stripe to another card # with $0 balance.
When I pay for the gift card on the shelf, it activated the blank card with the criminal.
(7) Solution. I came back to Save on Food customer service and provide all the information to them and they notified Petro Canada. My money was refunded next days.

SUGGESTION
Please try to avoid purchase the Gift Card over $50 value from the open shelf. Alternatively, you should purchase the Gift Card with proper packing such as Amazon GC. Thus, the scams experience can be minimum.

2021.05.01 BC 緊急福利金 調整.

在疫情初期，卑詩省政府推出了BC Emergency Benefit (BCEB) 提供額外的$1000給予符合領取CERB的省民，部分省民因為當初CERB並不提供給自雇人士，領取了款項後又退還給政府。

因為CERB的條款有變，目前省府對於退還款項的自雇人士，在符合條件的情況下可以請求發還$1000 BCEB。詳情請洽 Http://www.gob.bc.ca/workerbenefit



2021.05.01 BC Emergency Benefit Change

At the beginning of pandemic, BC government announced BC Emergency Benefit (BCEB) which provided extra $1000 for the qualified BC resident who applied for CERB. The CERB was not designed for self-employee and some applicants received the $1000 BCEB, but returned the amount to BC government.

Since CERB term has been changed, BC government just announced, the eligible self-employee workers who returned BCEB $1000 can request for the reconsideration of the CEBA payment. Please refer to Http://www.gob.bc.ca/workerbenefit
