Can anyone tell me what is involved in moving to Canada from the US? Thanks.?

Question

I would like to receive a step by step on what it takes to move to Canada from the US. It's just my wife and I and I'm 50 and she is 46. I'm currently employed as a QA Technologist in the food industry. I would like to stay in this industry but I also have experience in other manufacturing areas e.g. injection moulding.

Answer 1

Shoredude is correct. Unless you can show you can live in Canada without any support, you might as well forget getting a VISA for work.

Unlike the US, Canada's immigration policy is very restrictive. At your age they will look at you as a liability to their social systems and decline a work visa. Same if you are 21 and a diabetic.

Answer 2

Honestly, it will be extremely difficult to get permission from Canada to move there at your age.  They want to make sure that immigrants are not a drain on their social programs.

That said, visit Canadian Immigration Service's website for what is needed.
