How To Move To Canada In 5 Easy Steps
One of the world's most popular destinations for Brits to immigrate to
, Canada is often seen as the country where the grass is always greener - and with good reason, too.
If you're considering a move to Canada, assuming that you've holidayed in the country a handful of times and done your research, these 5 steps offer a simple break down on how to make the move across the Atlantic.
1. Choose your actual destination - in some countries, regardless of the actual area you are looking to move to permanently, all you have to do is apply for a visa for the country and it covers you irrelevant of where you want to live.
Whilst there are some visa options that follow this suit for Canada, there are also several that are tailored to specific provinces, which are worthwhile looking at should you be moving to one of the provinces where a dedicated visa is offered.
2. Look for employment opportunities - in theory, if you weren't applying for a Canadian work visa, this step can be skipped over, as most visas other than Canadian work visas don't often stipulate that employment is required.
However, if you can prove that you have been offered employment in the country before you move, it is generally accepted that it will act as a positive aspect on the application of any visa.
3. Choosing and apply for your visa - with several different visa options available, it can be confusing deciding on which one is most suited to you. Therefore, it is strongly recommended that you take the advice and support offered from any of the reputable companies who aim to make the visa application process as easy as possible.
Remember, no company can guarantee you will be accepted for a visa - but they can use their experience to put you in the best position possible amongst the other applicants.
4. Arrange your accommodation - in theory, you should start looking for accommodation at the same time you look for employment, if not before. However, most estate agents will not confirm any sale prior to you being accepted for a visa.
If you've been granted a visa but a struggling to arrange accommodation whilst still living in the UK, consider moving and staying in a hotel temporarily, as it is generally easier to find accommodation should you actually be living in the country.
5. Move! - as tempting as it can be to take everything with you, it's strongly recommended that you don't take all of your possessions.
Air or ship freight is not something which can be paid for out of loose change and although the rates are competitive amongst providers, they are not by any means cheap. Therefore, the more items you have to move with you, the more expensive it will be, meaning that if you can take only the most basic items with you - the necessities and a few notable personal objects - the whole move will be a lot more affordable.
And remember, you're moving to Canada, one of the world's most developed countries, it's not the back of beyond - you can get everything you need once you're over there.
