Hi all,
I've been living in Toronto for a year (with IEC Working Holiday Visa which is for a year). It's expiring soon but I really fell in love with this country now! Stupidly, I was mostly focused on travelling and doing odd jobs, so I can't really use that as a leverage to get Express Entry or some high skilled (?) /Sponsored Visa. I wouldn't have enough points.
Immigration rules and all the paperwork here is quite confusing to me and I don't know how to proceed, if I'd like to stay here permanently.
Is my only hope getting a student visa? For an example, lots of my coworkers from Asian countries are going that route (culinary school, then working for some years and then they get PR).
What would be the easiest and/or cheapest way to immigrate? What would be the cheapest school here in TO? And easiest field to study or get a job in later?
*** Some more info, if important : female from a Baltic country (Estonia) soon 28 years old, got Bachelors and Masters in Natural Sciences (environmental studies, forestry etc) BUT don't have much experience in that field yet because after MSc graduation I came straight to Canada. No children or dependants. No family members living here. Quite good English skills, don't speak French though.
What would be my best options? Thanks!
