Having in mind that Canada has been ranked one of the best places in the world to live, it is no wonder approximately 250,000 immigrants choose to come in live in Canada every year. When you add up the relatively low cost of living, good health care and education system and well-paying jobs - it sounds like dream country.

If you have decided to move to Canada there are several ways to do it. For example, the business immigration, family class immigration and experience class immigration. However, people who qualify under the skilled worker class criteria will have highest chances to live their dream as Canada plans on accepting 101,000 new skilled worker immigrants in 2010 and Quebec is the province which is getting the largest percentage of them.

How to Migrate in Canada as a Skilled Worker

There have been so many reasons why people are migrating to Canada. Good education, job opportunities and permanent residency are few of them. But we have this doubt in mind on how to start your application. Normally we go to an Immigration representative but shocked of their services fee that would really drain your budget. Actually "representative" or some call it "agencies" would assess if you are qualified, meaning if they think you are qualified then you are really qualified so why do you need them? They won't do anything to process your application faster or influence the Canadian Immigration on your eligibility. All we have to do is to know the requirements, read instructions and submit your application.

Benefits of Migrating to Canada:

o Stay for 1095 Days and get Canadian Passport

o Free Children education

o Free Medical

o Social Security after 6 months

If you receive a job offer from a Canadian company, your visa application process will be much easier!

I strongly recommend obtaining a job offer from a Canadian company before submitting your visa application. If you can get this document, it will not only help you settle easier in Canada , but it will also increase your Pass Mark assessment.

Let me explain the way a job offer will help you increase your Pass Mark assessment:

You will receive 10 points if:

– You have a permanent job offer in Canada . However, please note that this offer has to be confirmed by Human Resources and Skills Development Canada (HRSDC).

If you are already in Canada (with a temporary work permit), and you decide to apply from within the country, you will also receive points in the following situations:

You will receive 10 points if:

– Your temporary work permit was issued after receiving a confirmation of a job offer from Human Resources and Skills Development Canada ; – Your temporary work permit was exempted from the requirement of a issued after receipt of a confirmation of your job offer from HRSDC (due to an international agreement).

Fancy cars, designer clothes, and high paying jobs are how many people in third world countries might imagine life in the western part of the world. After all, those who are lucky enough to immigrate to Canada, U.S., or the U.K. for a new and prosperous life, always return home for a visit after a couple of years bearing a ton of gifts for the entire family, building homes on huge acres of land, and spending heaps of cash that seem to be limitless. Yes, the lifestyles of those who live in western countries are very privileged in many ways that I can’t deny. I should know, I live in Alberta, Canada, an oil rich province where jobs are plentiful; salaries are high, and poverty, almost non-existent.

In addition to living in what appears to be a life of luxury, there are things all people should be fully aware of before settling in Canada.

#1) WESTERN MENTALITY

Most people in third world countries do not have or may not be aware of credit cards or mortgages. So, if you know or see someone living in a big house or driving a luxurious car you can safely make the assumption that they are rich. However, in Canada or U.S. someone driving a luxurious car and living in a big beautiful house may or may not be rich. If you have good credit, you are eligible to get a mortgage, credit cards, car leases which basically means the bank really owns your car or house and you make monthly payments depending how much the loan is. It could take 2-5 years to pay off a car and 20 plus years for a house.
