Dear Seniors,
After a testing wait for 5 years, finally I received PPR2 last week and expecting my visa any time now. Guessing from my medical date, I assume the visa validity will be till 1st week of August 2015. That means I have short time to plan my life ahead. I want to learn from your experiences so please answer my following questions
My brief profile: An IT professional working in Oman. Certified in Oracle, Java and PMP. Heading the department in a multinational company.
1. I want to land in Calgary, what is the good time for a job hunt? How is the economy in Calgary right now? Any idea about IT jobs?
2. What is the living expense for a family of three (husband,wife, and a 3 year old)? Housing? Groceries? Bills? Car? Others?
3. Because I applied in 2010, the credentials equivalence wasn't required. Would it help if I get credentials assessed now?
4. Do we have to declare absolutely everything that we carry with us (or to follow) while landing or only valued items?
Thanks in advance
Regards,
