I've been wanting to move overseas for a while now! Bitten by the 'NRI' bug! What's made it stronger is the fact that mom and dad are living overseas as well. The trip to London this year gave me the extra push!
For the last 2 years I have been thinking about how to move abroad. First I tried the more sensible route - look for a job overseas and move. But then again, that was more difficult especially given my own fuss about where I wanted to move. There were just 3 countries in the running - U.K., Canada and Australia.
U.K. was always the front-runner! Moving to the U.K., however proved to be more difficult given the whole 'Must be eligible to work in the E.U.' condition. Therefore, despite studying in the country, many of us couldn't stay back and work in the country. That didn't dampen my spirits (okay, it did a little!).
After realizing that siting in one country and finding jobs in another wasn't exactly as easy as I thought, I decided to use the 'easier option' - get a P.R. and then find a job in my new home country!
I decided to apply for P.R. to Canada - simply because I had heard the the country is the right mix between the U.S. and U.K. There were several other reasons to select the migrating to the country (in case you are interested, you can check some videos on YouTube.
The P.R. process to move to Canada is easy, especially if you enroll through the Express Entry Program - but more about that in my next post!
