FSW WORLDWIDE

[PRANIT01]

Ohk.. so you suggesting to do it from University. And ya we both are non tech trying to put foot forward in IT.
Also, wanted to ask you one more thing.
If we travel to calgary via seattle (US) from India do we need transit visa??
If yes, how much time does it take to get US transit visa?

Yes ,if I am you I will definitely go to university.unis in us and Canada are tough they will make you spit nails,take appropriate foundation course and prerequisite and email the unis admissions office and you should have good sop.
Yes you need a transit visa,air canada is a great option, other airline are bit messed up.
I am not sure about the transit visa procedure.

Did you tell the customs checkpoint that you have good to declare? I've heard of and also saw them just whizzing people by without checking the immigration slip properly.

yes those clowns didnt give a f**K

 

[PRANIT01]

No sh!t.

I will tell you one thing ,I have cussed them a lot of times ,but I can guarentee you 1 thing Canada's public offices are a million times better than USA.They dont give a damn even if you are an american forget about immigrants.
If you go to exchange a license 1 day is lost in US in Canada I took 15 min.
IRCC is garbage nodebate on that but atleast in Alberta I can say their systems are really efficient

I respectfully disagree, DMV's are not what they used to be. I have been a DMV in Massachusetts and a DMV in Florida, they are much more efficient and streamlined. Yes you need to wait at least an hour or maybe less but this is huge improvement.

Yeah, look how consulates are in the US right now. They are a shitstorm and if you complain about it to a rep, he will probably be glad, because less immigrants. Even if you are a citizen and have family abroad. In canada, they will actually try to do something about it.

I love how this thread always switches from 'fk canada, us is awesome' to 'usa sucks, canada ain't bad' every now and then. Let me tell you something mates, statistically speaking, we in Canada are fked in an economic perspective and the outlook is worse in the next 10 years (big part in due to Liberal Trudeau policies). If you care about the the other stuff then yes, Canada is better

Hello guys, so when the all program draws resume on July 6th, the processing time for FSW express entry will go back to 6 months?

Economically USA will always have an advantage over Canada. There are not many people if they have US GC would come to Canada. I'm not saying there would be none but a major chunk of people would gladly choose US if they could get GC over Canada.

I'll take that with a grain of salt. Also remember C-19 is on its way now.

I'm in the minority there. I have absolutely no desire to live in the US. I actually feel sorry for those who do.

It may but it all depends on how soon federal government works on reducing the shortfall in staff.

Tell me the same after going to Houston TX.Some DPS you go you are going to be there for ever.
Even the best case scenario of MA and FL is still 4 times higher than calgary registry. Look at the number of registry offices here it is a lot of them.
Forget about waiting, I am talking about the way they behave.But this is the thing the place I lived was a bad neighborhood, because my previous company was near it,that might have played a role.
But one thing that bothered me here in canada is use of hard drugs not pot,police don't care even though it is illegal.
But I feel safe when compared to Houston, even after living there for 5 yrs ,I am afraid to walk in Cullen Blvd,mlk Blvd,greens point....but not any where here.

This is the thing both has pros and cons ,no question in that it is all about priorities.

If a person is having high demand skills I don't think canada/US matters atleast about getting a job.pay obviously is higher in USA.(but again health care is a blessing atleast for me the medical I take is 2$ vs 90$ in US .
Housing prices-everyone wants to live in Toronto/Vancouver and obviously there is less supply more demand and crappy zone laws If you go to places other than that it is affordable. Even when I checked Montreal, ottawa it is not bad.Other than Dxdroid I have never heard about someone going to NB,I have not heard about anyone in NFL .I think that is their whole strategy make people spread out.

Obviously Toronto is garbage, I have been there I don't know why people is so much into it.
Look at wonderbly, I think she is in Manitoba I don't think she has any issues.

Obviously economically comparing US and Canada is like comparing apples and oranges canada only has 10% population of US so is the GDP.Obviously more opportunities in US.

This is one thing I don't support in people ,Noone is entitled for anything, if you want to have a good life you have to make sacrifices ,you might have to change careers. You might have to do odd jobs ,that is all the part of the game and I am 100% sure every one in the forum knows it.
I have seen a girl from my country yesterday, according to her white people are racist that is why she is not getting any jobs,I asked her where did she study one diploma college in calgary, with this attitude even I wouldn't give her a job.I think she is a nice person but when hiring for a job people look at skills and attitude.You cab train people for a job but you can't get a person with horrible attitude do a job even if he is extremely skilled.
USA is a great nation no doubt in that ,but now we have taken a decision to move to canada, I read somewhere
When life gives you lemon make lemonade.

Hi, I'm new here. I would like to know my chances.

How likely is it to get ITA for FSW-outland with a CRS score of 470 in the current situation? Any comments and remarks are welcome.
