Default Securing an apartment with no Canadian Credit History

Hi guys,

Just wondering if you can help out - I'm sure this is a common problem among expats in Canada.

I've finally obtained a permanent job which I've started last Monday and so can satisfy the job requirement in obtaining my own apartment. However, many still ask for a credit report in which I don't have any credit history in Canada.

I have yet been able to obtain a Credit Card, because I hadn't had a job til now and even that I'm still awaiting approval with a bank I just inquired with.

How else may I be able to obtain my own apartment without a credit history? Is it possible?

Would appreciate all your suggestions!!

Thanks!
