Hi everyone,
Hoping someone here can help with my query. I have just started researching moving to Canada (I have always wanted to move there but assumed I would need to complete my nursing degree first to get a visa), however I was looking at moving there as a Care Assistant/Support Worker ( I have been working in a home for adults with learning disabilities for 2 years) and have savings of 14,000 canadian dollars. I am 23 and have been married to my husband for 4 years (He is 32, has a steady job as a General Manager of a hotel) so he would be coming with me as a dependant. I did the online calculator which stated I was eligible to apply for express entry, however my job category is only a C and I then read that ‘C’ class cannot apply for express entry, Would anybody be able to clarify this? We would be looking to move to Nova Scotia and I have also heard that securing a job offer would majorly enhance your prospects, but I wondered if this would be possible as care job providers tend to want an applicant to start ASAP, not wait up to 6 months for their visa to be granted.
I also had a look at my husbands job category and his job as a manager is classed as ‘0’ which is eligible for skilled entry. I guess we would have a better chance if he applied for the visa and I came as the dependent?
If anybody could help me out I would be most grateful!!
Thanks
Caitlin
