Currrently me and my boyfreind are looking to live and work in Canada. I live here in America. He lives in Israel. Its been his dream to live and work in Canada. he asked me about this about 3 weeks ago. I told him this sounds like a good idea. I would love to go there. It sounds like a good work opportunity. He is educated in computers. As far as I know he has college education. The only problem i know he might have is his English skills. his speaking and understanding is ok but needs some work. I am unsure about his chances for applying for work visa or permit would be until his english improves. I've a challange as well. I don't have a college education. I thought of persuing one but never had the resources to do it. My problem is I am not sure if I fall under a catogery for a skilled worker. I would love to work here but I only have expereince in the following feilds: grocery retail (cashier/stock),restaurant (cashier/salad bar prep/some additional food prep/hostess/cleaning/take to go orders etc),light industrial (trimmer/ general machine operation in plastics such as vents/ shutters) and a little hospitality work ( wasn't there very long but got the basic idea of housekeeping area cleaning rooms etc) I can handle money or do hostess work in any restaurant or grocery setting. I would love the chance to work here with skills I have. I've some questions below if anyone can help me answer them I will be most grateful. It will be a big help to my boyfreind as well.
1)The biggest question right now I have is: How can I apply for a job outside of Canada without a work permit? (Some don't want you to apply unless you have one) 2)How can I get offer from a job once I start applying for work? (I've been advised I would need a offer of work to get permit or to be considered for permanet residence) 3) How much money would me and boyfreind need to bring entering into canada? these are just some of the questions to start off with.
Any help will be much appeciated. Thank you in advance.
