If you only need to complete a few exams or courses to change over to Canadian system then great, if not, make plans so that you can support yourselves during time it takes to recertify. Also, try to make sure that there will be a good chance of employment available once you’ve qualified.

Definitely have a back up career chosen or identify anything you could easily cross over into as things rarely work out as you intend. If you read “Our Story” page on our Canadian Immigration information website http://www.onestopimmigration-canada.com , you’ll see that events transpired that meant my Plan A and Plan B both went wrong. Luckily some earlier research paid off and I managed to “the right job” within 6 weeks.

To close this article, DO NOT rely on your settling funds to last – I would thoroughly recommend working anywhere to start with – our budget gave us 6 months without work but in reality we’d have been in trouble in 4!!!! A servers or Bar job can be very lucrative but even $1,000 a month means that your money will last longer or help with retraining costs. My wife, Andie, worked in local movie store almost straight away and apart from money it means you meet people and start making contacts. As saying goes “it’s not what you know it’s who you know”.

Whatever you decide about your Canadian Immigration adventure, please ensure you fully research your employability – http://www.onestopimmigration-canada.com is packed full of great FREE information about Canadian Immigration and if it’s not on site, there’ll be a link to relevant authority.

GOOD LUCK

You can probably make up lots of examples of 80-20 rule that apply to your own ways of cleaning house and of keeping things picked up. Perhaps eighty percent of dirty dishes left lying around come from one person. Perhaps eighty percent of your frustration with how your house looks could be solved by doing twenty percent of what you think you should.
