njambert: It will be interesting to see. I imported from Europe. Stuff took about 4 weeks to arrive. I saw some Chinese guys at the Customs also waiting to clear their containers. For buying furniture, they seem expensive here so we decided to bring our stuff. I would love to see how importing from China is like. 1 Like |

You can,but your chances are lower.Follow the resources pinned on the Express Entry section to find the procedure,or go to Canadian official immigration website to check full info.You can aswell watch this video. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EYrBE5e8sYw Do your research.Nothing secret about it. onuwaje: |

AirBay: UK work permit thing is a pain in the bollocks. Imagine what you have to pay for a family of 5. Plus the NHS surtax and all. You would also have to earn a lot to break even. When the offer came to go back to the UK I was like, nope, Canada PR here I come. 2 Likes |

onuwaje:ielts is not the only determinant. If you qualify for PNP you can use it ( PNP of different provinces have different rules, some require having a relative there, some job offers, some certain occupations etc) . If its express entry its better to max the scores these days to stand any reasonable chance. In 2019 i got ITA with crs scores of 465, today i wont get ITA with that scores unless maybe i got a pnp invite. |

Car theft is a serious pandemic in Canada now. Nigeria is top 3 destination for stolen cars from Canada. Organised theives steal cars in Canada and sell the cars to Africa and other parts of the world. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T5XJrJTG-BQ?si=0h1XkqiFjZw8d4YF https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4JUxnzY_IPw?si=P8nvE5ns1f87qfK6 1 Like |

Hello everyone. Please I need advice. By God's grace, I will be landing in Canada by January with PR under the new Healthcare category but I also want to get some other certifications that will help me in job search. I want to be Agile/Scrum master certified but I'm confused between PMP (Project Management) certification or Business Analysis certification, which one will help me in securing employment in Canada's current job market |
Re: Living In Canada/Life As A Canadian Immigrant Part 2 by Enculer2: 11:54am On Sep 13, 2023 |
oty1993: I do not know so much about Business Analysis Certification. The advise I can give is that do not let the Certification be the driver. You have to have a clear 5 year plan regarding your career and see of PMP or Business Analysis will be useful during that time. I know for a certainty that PMP is well considered in Canada. It is expensive but it teaches you plenty of useful concepts. You would of course be expected to have had some background and be ready to apply it at work. I was preparing for PMP myself and I have some materials I can share if you are interested. All the best whatever you decide. Salaam. 5 Likes |

Good morning, Please i am back with my questions again. Please for someone who studied criminology and graduated 2019 but has been teaching since 2020 and also a fashion designer (the fashion design is not registered) what is the best study route to take? Again, for money constraint, can if i do a certificate course and get a 1 year work visa, can i still further my school in other to stay back because i dont intend returning back. For home tie, we have a 2 bedroom bungalow and 2 pieces of land in nasarawa, my wife has a property built by her father in her name. Then families. My work will give me a 1 year study leave. Are these enough for home ties? Finally, i also intend going with my spouse, will she also get a 1 year spouse work permit? If yes can she go to school immediately i round up my own 1 year course? Thank you. slydog: |

Thank you. I don't actually have experience in any of them. I just wanted something that will give me a good chance and career wise, I'm ready to stick with whatever works and build something from it. I know it's not an immediate advancement but a journey and I'm ready to put in work. Enculer2: |

In Naija, I used to visit the barber every other week as my hair grows fast and I had to always look sharp for work. However, when I got to Canada and saw the cost of a haircut - I learned to trim my hair and beard myself. I only go to the barbershop as needed now. Paying $40-$50 (+tip) regularly is crazy.
