Q. How to begin the process?

Certainly! Here's a more organized breakdown of the immigration process:

1. Check Eligibility

    • Salary Proofs (e.g., payslips, tax returns)
    • Employment Records (e.g., appointment letters, reference letters)
  • Education Documents:
    • Degree Certificates
    • Transcripts
  • Identification Documents:
    • Passport
    • Birth Certificates
  • Challenges: Consider any difficulties in obtaining documents from previous employers, especially if relationships were strained or if the company has shut down.

3. Financial Planning

  • Arrange Funds: Ensure you have enough funds to cover the immigration process.
  • Budgeting: Plan your finances to cover costs such as visa fees, medical exams, and other related expenses.

4. Education Credential Assessment

  • Start the Process: Begin the process of converting and assessing your education credentials to meet the standards of the destination country.

5. Expression of Interest (EOI)

  • File EOI: Submit your Expression of Interest to enter the pool of applicants.

6. State or Provincial Nomination

  • Apply for Nomination: File for state or provincial nomination to increase your chances of selection.

7. Visa Application and Background Checks

  • Submit Visa Application: Once nominated, file your visa application.
