I think your first assignment when you land is to get an office and register an immgration consulting firm. you have indeed be a blessing to this forum please dont stop even after you land. please can you advise on choosing between writing ACCA or going for an MBA while one is waiting for a PR. Am kind of confused. i am an accountant from my country but hungry for am MBA haven worked for over ten years. But i also learnt that ACCA gives accountant edge in canada thus i dont know which to go for.

whichever one i am going to UK in september to do either. other seniors can also assist
thanks.

Hi,

As I have replied to u eralier in the other thread, Finance & Accounts is another highly "regulated" profession in Canada. We need to do a 'Canadian' qual in this field to be acceptable in this profession. I'm not from this field, but have a general opinion though.

MBA-Finance is a good qual. In most places taken at par with CA, CMA etc. But, the ques here is that of a Canadian Qual & not of an International Qual. Unfortunately in Canada, only a "Canadian qual" will work in a 'regulated occupation', period.

So, it'd be wise that u try & gain such quals from a Canadian Univ. Not from another International Inst., be it in the UK, US or elsewhere. As I understand even an MBA-Fin from, say UBC, would work. And off course, like member 'Accounts' suggested, a CGA and/or CMA should work too, I guess.

thanks qorax. someone in canada just told me that ACCA and one of the canadian bodies have mutual recognition policy so i would go for it now in the meantime. i would postpone the MBA to when i get to canada as advised. i will use this period to work on my GMAT ability.

Many thanks

we are landing on 7 april 2010
I have question on proof of funds
if i carry bank statement from indian bank dated 5 april 2010 of indian rupee equivalent to required 17000 CAD will it work while landing ???
We can transfer the money online as we need and we do not need to carry cash or check, etc
Will we be allowed entry in canada with bank statement and no cash/ check with us ????
What should we answer at the border when they ask how much money r guys taking with u ????
should we say 17000 as we r gonna transfer it online ???

We have family in canada and we r going to stay and they r going to take care of all expenses.
please help if anyone has any idea
thanks
