Hi All,

Just got the Visa stamped on my passport.

There is a doubt troubling me, its kinda stupid you would say, but need your opinion.

I have heard lot about the quality of life & facilities in canada as compared to dubai but the idea of leaving my decent job here & moving to a new place without a job is giving me sleepless nights.

Is it normal to feel insecure at this stage? What if one doesn't get a decent job there?

Looking forward to your replies

Proby

There are no right or wrong answers. Everything depends on what you want from life. I have friends who landed and never went back, one who stayed for two months and then moved back to India, and another who has never looked back and set up his own business there and another whose family stayed back while he lived here for five years alone and then went back to Canada. It's a tough choice. Congratulations and good wishes on your move. All the best.

Hi Proby

It depends on you entirely. I landed here in Aug 2013 and have picked up a job completely different from my profession after 3 months and 100s of job applications. That said the work life balance is pretty good and there are no late working hours unless you want to work late.People are nice and friendlly too. I would agree with coolguy and others - come prepared with savings so you don't struggle for basics like food and housing. I have settled down in Burlington,ON and would be happy to help with other questions in the settling down process whenever you decide to make the move or if you are planning to Land now and move later

Hope this helps - All the best

to those already landed, i want to ask which cargo company is good and cheap.. i want to send some of my things like clothes, boots etc..

and how many mos. it will reached canada. thanks!
Hi Genona

We used the following

Binoy Menon | Exports Coordinator
Leader Relocations LLC | Toll Free (UAE): 800-MOVERS (668377)
Mob: +971 55 6038940 | Tel: +971 4 8852204 | Fax: +971 4 8850724
export@leaderrelocations.com| www.leaderrelocations.com
WN-3, Dubai Investment Park, P.O. Box 16327, Dubai, U.A.E
Member of International Association of Movers (IAM)
Abu Dhabi | Dubai | Sharjah | 20+ Years in Business

Binoy was referred to me by Biju and was the most reasonable company by far.You can give Binoy Biju's reference. They offer a door to door service and if your documents during landing are in order they clear the shipment for you i.e. you don't need to go to the airport. They also have an unpacking service at the destination. My only advise to you and all forum members is please get insurance whenever you ship anything.

Hope this helps
