Just some background information:
I am a born Canadian citizen and work full time as a registered nurse. I have a stable job and steady income.
The love of my life is a Korean citizen. He was here on a Tourist Visa from December to end of May. He is majoring in industrial design and is finishing his final semester this upcoming September 2020 and is done by December 2020. In the meantime, from now to September, he will be working hard towards getting certificates to buff up his resume for competition in Canada. In addition, he'll be continuously studying English for the IELTS. After graduating, he'll be looking at visas to come back to me in Canada for next year.
We both have a dream to live in Canada together and we do have a goal to marry at the end. When we get married, I don't know. We both said it's best for him to first focus on graduating then apply for the visas to come back next year. We also agreed we should have a job before getting married (steady income, financially stable).
What are the visas available for him?
He will try to get the working holiday visa for sure and he said in his home country, there are visas that will allow him to go to Korea (for what I don't know tbh, maybe work idk? He's focused on the present right now and doesn't want to focus too far ahead yet... he just wants to get his certificates and graduate then when it's almost time, then he'll look more into visas).
Marriage is also an option but we both agreed that having a steady job before marriage is ideal but that situation may change, who knows? *crosses fingers*
He's going to be a new grad from South Korea and I believe he has done several co-ops with his university or something but if he applies directly from being a new grad, I am unsure if he'll be able to be eligible for any work related permit and I'm afraid that it'll be hard for him to even find a job in Canada so that he can use the job offer as a visa.
Any kind advice would be nice.
I wish I could be more like him and just focus on the near future instead of jumping nearly 6 months ahead of myself. ><
Thanks!
