Hi All,
This is my first time posting so I'm hoping someone can offer me some advice.
I'm British and married to a Canadian (both living in UK) We will be looking to move to Canada in the next few years. I'm a qualified electrician, so would be looking to also obtain a provincial qualification to continue working in my trade. We will be selling our house here and buying a house in Canada so will be taking around $100k CAD maybe a little more, as a deposit.
My questions are:
1.What Visa process do I need to go through.
2.Can I obtain a provincial trades qualification (Ontario) whilst still living in the UK? even if this means me going to Canada to sit an exam..
3.Can we purchase a house as soon as we arrive in Canada? (no 6 month or a year compulsory waiting time before purchasing? something I have heard..)
If anyone can offer advice I'd be very grateful! and if anyone has been through anything similar (There must be people out there!) I would love to get in contact for help and advice.
Many thanks in advance..
