Hi Everyone,

Hope to get some insights from people out there. My family and I are planning to apply for our PR to Canada by July/August this year via FSW. I'm planning to do my PhD at one of the Universities in BC, CA and also would like to apply for our PR at the same time so that it would be easier for us to buy a house, car etc. Since my background is in the field of education, I was told that the demand for that particular skill is limited. My question is, can I send in my application to the visa office as an applicant for PR and also as a student at the same time? Or I should come in as a student and apply for PR 2 years later? However the second option is not our preferred option as it would limit us in many ways in securing jobs, acquiring property etc. Please advise...thanks!
