Based on the report, the new ranking assesses the international perceptions of 80 countries, their immigration policies and economic data. “The 2017 Best Countries rankings revealed that more than 40 percent of respondents view immigration as the most important issue for our world to solve,” said Eric Gertler, co-chairman of U.S. News and the New York Daily News, who was recently honored by the Carnegie Corporation of New York as a 2017 Great Immigrant. “With the recent spotlight on immigration in the U.S. and abroad, we wanted to dive into its potential benefits and challenges on a country’s perceived economic status in the world.” Here are the top 10 Best Countries to be an Immigrant 1. Sweden 2. Canada 3. Switzerland 4. Australia 5. Germany 6. Norway See full list https://pageone.ng/2017/07/10/sweden-best-country-immigrant-followed-no-2-canada-no-3-switzerland/ |

If you're white, then yes, it may be the best country to migrate to. I've lived in Sweden and I will chose Canada, Australia and even USA before Sweden. Heck, I'll even chose South Africa to Sweden. Regardless of the material comfort Sweden offers, I can't live in darkness for 8 months in a year, endure winter that goes below 30 degrees, always feeling "out of place" due to my skin colour and endure the racism that comes with it. And of course, the antisocial people that makes its difficult to make friends. Life should be more spicy than that, not Sweden. Beautiful country though 9 Likes 1 Share |

I will choose this English speaking countries over the non English speaking countries mentioned above: USA, Canada, New Zealand, Austrialia, UK and Ireland. Those non English speaking mentioned above, no matter your education you will still end up doing menial jobs. I met 2 people in Finland with Master degree from a Finnish school who are still doing cleaning and paper delivery, Except you study I.T related course. 1 Like |

pansophist:what you just described is similar to most places in Canada maybe with the exception of southern BC. Only difference is that racism is not as rampant in Canada compared to Europe and English/french are the official languages. 1 Like |

Fishout: moving to a country based on what you are told (probably by people who havent left the country, telling you want you want to hear, to extort cash from you) is not a good idea, and if things don't go well as you've been told, then you are in for a big mess. Firstly, you cant extend a visiting visa, and you cant work with it. If you overstayed, then you've just joined 1000's of your kind who regrets each day of their existence, as their life waste away in their very eyes. Be warned. 5 Likes |

Fishout:How did you get the visa in the first place , you don't have plans before applying for visa? Well, the best option for you since you have nobody over there is to seek asylum if you have genuine reason for one. That will buy you time like 2ys and if you are fortunate and have a good reason and proof, you claim could be accepted and you become a refugee. You need to research on how to do that on your own. |
