Moving to Canada is a dream for so many people in this world (Including me) !
But it is not a piece of cake my dear ..............

First of all you need to know under what category can you apply for Immigration to Canada as there are so many categories like Federal investor category, Quebec Investor category, Skilled workers, Provincial Nominess e.t.c

You can get all the information on Canadian Immigration website which is ; www.cic.gc.ca

Go through the website choose a category and take a step further and apply for it but get this in your mind that (GONE ARE DAYS WHEN IT USE TO BE JUST SOME WEEKS OR MONTHS TO GET IMMIGRATION INTO CANADA) ..... Nowdays it takes years for any category to be finalised by Canada Immgration authority.

ALL I WOULD SAY IS (BEST OF LUCK) and donot hesitate to ask any further question ..........

Regards !

The aunt can't help you immigrate in Ontario. She can invite you to visit.

Some places will hire foreign workers for electrican. I suggest you begin to look for jobs. It's a NOC code B job, which qualifies for CEC and PNP in most provinces. (I'm going to say most because I don't know about them all and I'm not going to check them all out.)

You'll need a license: http://www.ehow.com/how_5036061_become-licensed-electrician-canada.html

If you can visit your aunt, you can get your certification and look for jobs. Keep in mind, areas such as Toronto won't have a great need for electricans as more remote areas. One tool you can use is Kijiji. (www.kijiji.com) It is all over Canada. You can do broad searches for jobs offering a LMO. Remember, do NOT pay placement fees. Anyone wanting thousands of dollars for a work permit is a scammer.

One thing you must do is make sure your job description, title, and wages matches the qualifying job for CEC/PNP. CEC takes two years. PNP varies by province.

That being said, if you live in Greece, but you're from Albania, you will have a hard time proving your ties to your home country. That is something CIC looks at when they process your visa.

Visa costs money both ways. You should either mail or do it online. Search for "TRV refusals" on the forum to get an idea of what makes a strong application.

I'm not sure what you're asking. Are you asking how much a visa costs?

The fee per person is $150 for a multiple entry visa, $75 for a single entry visa or $400 for a family (multiple or single entry). If you plan to visit Canada more than once, a multiple entry visa is recommended.

@ Erandi .
As you mentioned that you have a degree in English language then you will be in professional category. You can also go on a job if you use to get the proper job in any educational institute in Canada.

Teachers are not in demand. They're actually in overabundance in most areas. No chance for a LMO.

It's really your choice if you apply with or without a lawyer/consultant. Having a lawyer or consultant represent you does not increase your chances of being approved.

There are many consultants out there. I doubt anyone here will be able to comment on the specific one you have found.

@Erandi : It's your wish you want to have a representative for immigration to Canada,as it doesnot realy guarantee that your case will be strong or have positive impression if you hire a representative but it will for sure save you alot of time and less headache if you do hire one !
