Hi friends,
I am from Dubai and I am planning to migrate to Canada. The process takes a long time. I want some suggestions from those who already applied for migration or are planning to migrate.
We have more than the required pass mark. Any genuine suggestions? Lets discuss about this and help each other because once the application is rejected then we wont be able to apply for next few years. So, come on friends, share your experience and help me.
Regards

Hi lavenderbloom. I migrated to Canada few years ago. I was a student in France and I applied with three of my friends before we finished our studies. By the time we were done with school, we were already approved. There is no mystery in the process, we just followed the instructions and we were all approved. I don't know if the province matters, but I chose Quebec. After staying 3 years in Montreal, I applied for my citizenship which I got a year later. Now I am living in the US so I really don't know if the process has changed. I also had friends from Syria and Lebanon that I met in France and most of them migrated to Canada. I don't know anyone who got refused. So good luck with your process and I hope everything goes well for you. Take care lavenderbloom.

Hi,
I am very happy you replied. Thank you very much for your wishes. Actually I was worried if anything goes wrong in the application then I wont be able to apply for few years. That's why i just wanted to be sure of everything before we apply. Anywayz, this month we are proceeding with the application. We will do it very carefully. We just want to migrate soon so that my son can start his school there.
After reading about your process, I feel that it is not that impossible mission :)
I really wished someone might reply to this post. but, I have not received any thing which i can really rely on. Thanks once again for your response.

Hi lavenderbloom. Not it's not impossible mission at all. You just need to follow the steps and if anything is missing they will also send you back the papers... It only affects the time it will processed. So if you are careful about not making mistakes then it will speed the process otherwise they will send you the papers back and it will take more time. That's all.
You don't even need to pay a lawyer as some people do. Save your money and apply the normal way. All the lawyer would do is the same steps that you can do yourselves for free anyway.
So Good luck lavenderbloom and keep me posted with your immigration process! I wish you the best of the best! Take care lavenderbloom.

hi,
I just want to thank you for your reply. I was waiting for any reply to this post till now. After reading I am now confident. Me and my husband have now decided to apply directly. So, may be within 10 days we will start it. Need to arrange some fund,. Then immediatly we will apply. No more waiting. We waited 1 year thinking how to do and other worries related to immigration.
I will definitely keep u informed about my progress.
You have really helped me to make a decision just like a true friend.
Thanks dear.

hi,
I am so relieved to hear that somebody with genuine experience responded. Thanks. From which country did you apply. I am from Dubai, UAE. How did you start exactly. My husband has already passed the IELTS Exam. Now, we are planning to give our application by the end of this month. How long will they take to respond and call us for the interview. Did you take anybody's help in this process. Your suggestions are highly appreciated. I will be waiting for your reply.
