I came here in 2006 as a student. A month before finishing college in 2007, I got a very good job with an IT company. Last year in about July I applied for immigration and I'm almost done....I just have to submit my police clearance and get my passport stamped. My wife and I applied together so she'll get her PR when I get mine which will hopefully be in a month or two.

At the moment, getting into Canada is your first priority. Once you're in....you'll get accustomed to various options available here and then making a decision or changing your path will be much easier.

The job market is low at the moment, so studying is something that is viable at the moment. However, I do understand that getting a job after you finish studying is of prime importance. Study very very hard, be not amongst the top best...but be the best. This is what I did, and I got a job.

Which college are you going to be studying in and where are you living? I studied in George Brown College, living in Toronto.

Hi Tanushree... I've been a silent reader of this topic.... I'm a Systems Administor in the UK and have been working in IT for 5+ years in London now. I recently got my PR too and am looking to Land in Toronto in April 2011.
 
In your post above, you mentioned that you got your crendentials evaluated and so need to give exams, what exams and why? Could you please elaborate?
 
I am thinking of getting my BCA degree from India and Masters from UK evaluated as well but not sure if its worth doing as i'm into IT.... just curious what exam you are having to give after evaluation.
 
Cheers,
Nina.

Hello Nina,
             I am 2004 applicant at NewDelhi.I would appreciate if you could give me constructive feedback regarding the Canadian credential assessment & evaluation while we are in our Native country.
 
Please elaborate, as I had already completed the Chemical Engineering Degree attestation & Authentication from India as such: HRD attestation,Ministry of External affairs and Apostille sticker.
 
Do you apply thru' any Canadian agents for Canadian education equivalency?.
 
What is the procedure for the same?.
 
Other than Nina,anybody can throw some lights on the same.
 
Please revert me.
 
Regards,
 
Charan.
