Hi,
Could someone please give me some guidance?
This is my situation:
We would like to move to Canada. my problem is I would like to study further at a university but have not yet decided on which one as my husband would need to find work first so we would need to be in the same town more or less. I have heard so many different options on how to apply its really confusing and not sure how to go about everything. A few members on another forum told me that he would have more success finding a job once in Canada, Is this true? If so do I fist apply for a visitor visa and once he has a job offer there apply for a working permit?
I would also like to know is it better to apply for a visa first and later once settled in the town of choice, start the process for PR or first apply for PR? If I apply for the PR first do I also need to apply for any other visas?
We have two small children age 4 and 10 what type of visas would they need? As I understand it they can go over on visitor visas and attend school. As mentioned above I cannot enroll them in any school until we know which town we will be living in so a study permit for them would be impossible at the moment.
For the first month or so we plan to travel through Ottawa and see which areas will be more central for us. We will not be coming over with no capital as we have planed for the worst case scenario thus have enough funds for min 3 years stay if my husband cannot find work immediately or if his permit takes a while which I suspect would be the case.
My last concern is a battle for me I have no other living family besides my grandmother who is 76 would she qualify for a visa? She has no medical condition and has not needed to see a Dr in well over 20 years. She is currently living with me as I am not willing and do not have a need to place her in a home. The problem with her tho is she has lost her husband and all 3 her children in 15 years which has taken some toll on her mind. Which I am worried about when it is time for the medical exams. I love my grandmother dearly and cannot just pack and leave her behind with absolutely no one to be there for her. What are her chances?
I know this is a mouth full and thousands of topics about it but I have spent a few hours going through this forum and cannot find a concrete answer to my questions. If anyone could please shed some light and point me in the right direction I would really appreciate it.
Thank you
