Hi All, I'm happy to share that I got my visa stamped on passport from New York office. I would like to know the next steps, like which place to select, and education for children etc. I'm an IT professional working in US for more than 9 years. Please advise the next steps. Regards, EmKaGC

Congrats. I think you should first look for a job and then decide where to settle. Here are some job search engines: http://www.canadavisa.com/career_zone/canadian-immigration-job-search.htm http://www.jobbank.gc.ca/http://www.eluta.ca/http://www.monster.ca/http://www.workopolis.com/If you find some jobs on there and contact the employers, make sure to tell them that you are PR already (or will be when you land) so you will not need a work permit. If you are offered a job, it might be a good idea to google the town to find some information for example about the size of the town, the weather etc. but even better if you go there and visit.

Thank you Leon. Also, where can I get information on Children school systems, best places for education? Specially in Toronto area. I tried few web sites, but couldn't get clear information.

As far as I know, in most cases kids go to their neighbourhood schools. When you look for a place to live, you can ask the neighbours if the schools in the area are good.

Since you got your visa stamped, it might be nice if you can share the timeline with others like me who are also using the same route. I am also a professional applying from USA.

Question. is the PR visa stamped in the passport or it is a separate document?
