Is Immigration the Right Choice for You?


Deciding whether to immigrate is a significant and personal decision, often influenced by family dynamics. If you're single, consider discussing this choice with your parents, siblings, and close friends. For those married or with children, the decision becomes more complex. Engage in open discussions with both your partner and children, ensuring everyone is fully informed and committed. Without complete commitment, the transition may become challenging.

Personal Experience


Before having children, my wife and I visited Canada. Initially, I was eager to move, but my wife was hesitant due to her family ties. However, after visiting another part of Canada years later, we both fell in love with the lifestyle, especially considering our son's future. Once we both agreed, we quickly began the immigration process, and the rest is history.

Understanding Visa Options


Once you're committed, choosing the right visa is crucial. Canada offers six standard visa classes, plus a separate one for Quebec, each managed by Citizenship and Immigration Canada (CIC). Carefully review each option, being conservative in your assessment.

For instance, while applying under the skilled worker class, I mistakenly assumed extra points due to family connections. This led to a shortfall in points, prompting us to hire Kerry Martin from Access Migration. Expertise helped us secure permanent residency.

Visa Processing and Professional Assistance


The skilled worker visa is popular and takes 18-24 months to process. Use the CIC's online assessment tool to gauge your eligibility. If you're unsure about handling the application yourself, consider hiring a registered immigration consultant.

If you need extra points, consider learning a second language or gaining relevant work experience. Ensure your application is thorough and error-free, providing all requested documentation. Including additional supporting materials, such as work history or references, can be beneficial.

Preparing for Life in Canada


While waiting for your visa, use the time to enhance your qualifications. Consider taking Canadian-recognized online courses to ensure your credentials transfer. Learning new skills, such as trades, can also offer lucrative job opportunities.

Research potential areas for settlement, aligning your skills with local industries. Assess job opportunities, perhaps using resources like the Yellow Pages or local job sites, to determine where your skills will be in demand. If your desired area lacks suitable industries, be flexible with your plans.

Budgeting for the Move


Budget planning is vital. Anticipate selling belongings and moving with life savings. Use a conservative exchange rate to calculate settling funds, considering all expenses like legal fees, shipping, and initial living costs.

Research housing costs, local taxes, and potential employers to accurately forecast your budget. Below is a sample of potential monthly expenses for a family house of 1,800 square feet:

- Life Insurance: $60
- Pet Insurance: $30
- Local Taxes: $215
- Cell Phone: $55
- Water and Sewer: $65
- Gas: $75
- Electricity: $70
- House Phone: $80
- Cable and Internet: $110

Total: $760

Add mortgage/rent (estimated at $1,000 for a family house) and living costs (approx. $250 per week). Be aware of salary deductions, which may be around 45%.

By conducting thorough research, you'll be better prepared for the financial aspects of your move, ensuring a smoother transition.
