FSW 2014 Applicants Timeline- Lets Network Here.

[obaied]

I've read several member queries on whether they need to send copies of their transcripts and degrees, especially since an ECA has determined Canadian equivalency for their degree(s).

Read section 13 on the Document Checklist Form, and especially the section under the subheading Proof of Education. It says that you need to submit copies of your degree(s) and transcripts(s).

For those of you who've sent in their applications, there is nothing you can do now. Per forum member posts, there are others,too, who haven't send copies of their degrees and transcripts, but have been successful in getting PERs in this and previous FSW cycles. So, hope for the best.

For those who haven't sent in their applications yet, I very highly recommend adhering to CICs document checklist requirements and submitting copies of both your degree(s) and transcript(s).

yes, according to CIC, RIGHT
U deserve to get +1

Canada is not always good for immigrants.. There are lot of immigrants who suffered because of lack of opportunities, lot of people who live in basements and in the depressing long winters become Mad. There are doctors and engineers who drive cabs... Lot of people left good paying jobs and could not be successful in canada and returned back to be jobless. .. This is true for IT people... Unlike US the oppurtunities in canada are less and local experience takes preference.... There are also people who were successful... but it's always a big decision to leave a good paying job and immigrate to canada.. trying a onsite from ur company will be a very good option.
If you have earned enough money in your home country and want to enjoy cananda life style it's a good option.. If you have good contacts and friends it's fine..

I am working as an IT Consultant in one of the most prestigious companies in India. The reason why I want to go to Canada is 'Money'. I know that there are a lot of IT projects where consultants work on Contract basis and get around 60$ per hour. Me and my wife plan to work in the IT Sector with one of us working as a fulltime employee (for all the benefits) and one of us on contract (for all the money).

I am not very sure if going to Canada would be the wisest things to do. I've heard that Dubai also have very nice paying IT jobs. Dubai being closer to India and Indian culture would anyday be better on personal front. Reading all the discussion on the forum is confusing me! :'( :-\ :-[ :

Rohan,

As rightly said by someone on this forum. That not only for money but for better lifestyle and for next generation and for money too. Think abt five years down the line in India and in canada, What u get in Canada after 5 years, will you be able to get in India.

Just a suggestion, senior member who are already in Canada and experience may have better view on it.

I dont like India at all, just because of our politicians. It is a lawless country with lots of complex laws. I dont want my generation to raise here.

These are my 2 cents....

Let me put it this way for your convenience

Reasons I choose Canada over any other country, BTW I lived/worked in USA for about 6 years before moving back to India

1) Money
2) Healthcare
3) Sponsorship of parents/extended family(very few countries do that)
4) Canadian Passport has its advantages like easy access to job market in USA(TN Visa)

If your preferences is purely money earning and you are currently drawing a decent salary in India then may be you would not be as satisfied as you could v/s USA.

Hi,

I left 35,000 pounds / annum in UK ~ 35 lacks / annum and came back to India to apply for Canada.
I realized in my experience so far that money will come and go, but social life is extremely important with the benefits from the country.
In UK, working on a work visa means you are just like a slave. If you don't wish to work and take a break, you are not meant to be living in that country. Racism was important factor for me, but again on work visa I could not get benefits that other british citizens could get. I was just fed up there earning money..

India: 17 lacks/ annum is a good salary with a Mediterranean weather..

But go through the difference between a 1st world country and a 3rd world country on google before you ignore canada, and a easy entry to USA too few years being in Canada on PR.

If in worst case, you loose your job, Canada Govt pays 60% of your salary till you find the other one, India won't.


For children free education until they are 18 in public schools. In India, kindergarten charge fees equal to Engineering college fees I used to pay 9 years ago.. 60,000 to 70,000 just for admission .. Man, are they doing PHDs or what ?

Maternity and paternity leaves can be taken up to 8 months.. In India, maternity I think max 3 months and concept of paternity almost negligible..

Very Importants **** Security

Security wise, Canada is the best, India is one of the worst (touch wood).. its just a hope the attacks stop.
On my return to India after 3 years, I saw many cops and army hiding behind stacked sacks with weapons in big cities almost every corner. I felt i was in afghanistan for a while until I got used to it.

Infrastructure, Roads, Traffic, Pollution, Population, GDP not equally distributed - rich get richer and poor get poorer.. Middle class like you and me are in the worst position..

I bloody can't think of driving a jaguar or a SUV in such a traffic, If I intend to own one in future.. because there is no way even for people too to walk. How can you take the pleasure to ride or speed for which they are meant for ??

Discipline of people in India..

I love my country India, no doubt. But when I have been to US and UK, I feel every Indian should visit the other side of the world to see, life is much more beyond then what we are living right now..

I completely agree with you. We (my spouse and me) have been in the US for about a decade and yet, we can't help but feel like slave to the system without an opportunity to get to a stable and secure life. We are both successful and paid well in our fields but the uncertain visa situation and a never-ending game of cat and mouse when it comes to immigration status is driving us away. Sometimes it's more than money. We would like to start a family, be able to visit our home country when we wish, buy a house and above all have a socially and economically stable and secure life. It's a risk going to a new country and starting over but it's a risk that comes with a huge payback if successful.

Oh, and I would much rather have armies with weapons around me (as long as it's not a war zone) than have every other nutcase with deadly weapons everywhere.

+1 to every of u for sharing ur views--buddies ....




Sorry two of u are deprived due t o 168 hrs....

Hi,

Go through the following:

Q. How should I fill Additional Family Information form for my Spouse? Is it required?

A. Absolutely! It is a required document and your spouse should fill it. The form asks for “Applicant” and not “Principal Applicant“. Take care of it when filling the form. You, as a Principal applicant will write your name in “Applicant” Column and you will write your wife/husbands name in “Spouse” column.

Similarly, when your spouse is filling the form, he/she will write his/her name in the “Applicant” row & your name in the “Spouse“.

For both forms, you will write your kids details [if any], or will sign the declaration at the bottom of second section for no kids.

The last table will be filled separately by the two of you with your own siblings.

Thanks. Hope it helps

I've read several member queries on whether they need to send copies of their transcripts and degrees, especially since an ECA has determined Canadian equivalency for their degree(s).

Read section 13 on the Document Checklist Form, and especially the section under the subheading Proof of Education. It says that you need to submit copies of your degree(s) and transcripts(s).

For those of you who've sent in their applications, there is nothing you can do now. Per forum member posts, there are others,too, who haven't send copies of their degrees and transcripts, but have been successful in getting PERs in this and previous FSW cycles. So, hope for the best.

For those who haven't sent in their applications yet, I very highly recommend adhering to CICs document checklist requirements and submitting copies of both your degree(s) and transcript(s).

only copies of certificate and degrees(necessary).....transcript copies are optional

IF VO checks wether you were indeed working and your org. says yes he was.. then what you hv mentioned in ur application would be true.. hence dsnt matter if you leave ur company...at max..visa officer might ask you to bring joining letter (offer letter of new company..)

that is if ur verification is indeed done..
