Hi!
Im a British citizen at the age of 16 and probably wont be able to move to Canada for a good while yet (10 years + if I do at all) but Id like to know if I would be eligible if I were lets say 20/25. Im currently learning computer programming. I have been programming since the age of 7 making basic computer programs. Then when I was 13 one of my Moms friends who owns a computer programming company assessed my skill levels said I was at degree level in IT (not programming as I still didnt have any direction in that department and was still making basic computer programs) and he has helped me over the years become more advanced at computer programming. I can now develop websites and I can make a basic iPhone app from the ground up. Theres still more learning to be done but im at a higher level then some people I know that I have seen graduate from University. I dont plan to go to college or university though. I dropped out of school when I was 12 due to the school ignoring the anxiety issues I had at the time. (which are now not a problem I am glad to say)
My biggest aspiration is building a business out of my own skill set. Im looking into starting a web venture or an iPhone app and a few other things like a tutorial website and web development business. By the time I will be able to move to Canada I will more then likely have a business set up of my own (in the computer programming industry) and if not that I will probably have a skilled job in programming. Il be happy to work or work for my self (or even do both. Im *not* shy of work) if I move to Canada.
Would I be eligible for a visa in Canada with my current skill set? If I were to move to Canada I would make sure my business will be based there.
Im also very close with my parents and will want to take them with me when I move there. (We want to move there together if we do)
My parents will sell the current house we have to fund the move and purchase of new house and I will be willing to put my money toward it by then as well. (With the kind of housing we would want we would have a bit of money to spare) My father is possibly a unskilled worker as he does forklift driving for a living but could potentially get an HGV 3 license. I would be happy to financially support them by then though.
So what do you think? Is this more of a pipe dream or is it something that could actually happen?
My dad and mom are in good health as it stands and have no health issues and neither do I my self. Neither I or my parents have had any criminal records or done anything criminal.
