Objective, realistic and valid. I believe the only huge point not mentioned is language. With less than 50% of command of English chance of success is tiny.

Can u specifically mention abt minimum years of experience required to apply for Express Entry?

I have created my EE profile. We are 3 of us, myself, my spouse and my 10 year old son. But the EE shows the dependent as only my Spouse. Doesn't mention my Son. Did I miss some parameter ? Pls help

Dear Dream Canada, for qualifications obtained thru distance studies, what should I mention in the section 'country of study' while creating EE profile\nShould it be the country where I was physically present or the country where the institute situated. In the ECA report, it is the institute's country. Appreciate if you could shed some light

Thanks for the video. It's really so informative and helpful video. Can you please mention some links to the Facebook forums you were part of which you mentioned in this video?

Nice one ?. You forgot to mention that in Canada you have only 2 or max 3 weeks holidays per year while many countries like in The UK or Europe you could enjoy 5 weeks at least. ?

U didn't mention the climate

1. America is a continent, not a country.\n2. English is not the official language of the US, there is no official language in the United States, when the country was created in 1776, so many languages were spoken that the constitution does not mention any official language.

Hi which recruit agencies are hiring foreign worker?I mean they like to hire foreign workers as you mentioned

Great video, I'm glad you are willing to take off the rosy glasses to talk about Canadian reality. I'm a Canadian born myself and everything that was mentioned in the video is accurate in term of the struggles immigrants face. Canada is a very quiet, safe country and crime rate as well as violence in general is low. But Canada can still be as harsh as its climate so don't be fools, Canada is not Disneyland and it's not for everybody. Cities like Vancouver and Toronto are the most expensive cities in North America (Canada + USA) even more expensive than Los Angeles and Montreal is as expensive as New York. Therefore think twice, prepare yourself and do your research before applying. Using John F. Kennedy's famous quote I might add to conclude: \nDon't ask what CANADA can do for you but what YOU can do for Canada.

I left Canada to have a better life overseas some years ago, and I'm very happy with my life now. I grew up in Toronto and moved to Vancouver with my family later on, but neither places had weather conditions we wanted. Toronto winter is too long and Vancouver has depressing non-stop rain for six months. On top of all that, everything there got way too expensive to live and everything is too slow... Did I mention endless road constructions everywhere since forever ago? Well, some of us tried very hard to stay but sometimes migrating can help. \nCanada is definitely a beautiful country, but beauty isn't what makes our lives happy in reality.

When you were talking of different cultures and traditions you mentioned Russians (one country ), Latinos, Asians. Europeans but no mention of Africans. \nSo are you cultural introverts?

I'm currently planning to immigrate to Canada. As for me, the very reason why I want to move there is to have better life. There are some great points mentioned to this video but for some cases, most especially if you talk about other underpriviledge countries, Canada is much more better. I'm from the Philippines and I would say that our country is suffering from everything. High price of goods, salary for CAD375 minimum (for a month even you're bachelor degree holder), no health benefits (unless you are working in a private company that offers benefits), no educational benefits (I would consider scholarship but that wouldn't enough to survive in every semester that you'll take). Senior Citizens / PWD that only gets benefit from their 20% discount in every purchase they make for medicine and food and seniors sometimes didn't get their pensions... so on and so forth.\n\nI think, it all boils down from what country you came from and differences of the gov't system that they have. And all of us needs to work hard to get a better life. It will always depends on our decision on what lifestyle do you choose or how do you live your life or what life do you want to live.\n\nBut to conclude this, this is a great video. This a great heads up for those who wants to come to Canada.

Hello Jason. This video was really amazing and cleared all my little doubts but after following the steps you mentioned on the video, I came to realise that there isn't any NOC Code for my designation/job role. I am an Quality Analyst in an US based MNC. In simple words, I work with a BPO in Gujarat. So what can I do about this situation ? Kindly help me out with this

regardling the medical school part, if the lady you mentioned has medical back ground of 10 years it should be very easy for her to pass those 4 years, and there are ways to just challenge the exams out right, and skip the course all together. I've done it before with very simple courses in uni which I found were a waste of time and asked the professor if I could challenge this test out right, and i did and passed them. so I think if she has 10 years of solid medical background it would be a breeze for her, the law is there to protect the public, as not all experience is equal. 10 years maybe alot but if is not up to par with the standard in canada then it is considered unacceptable unforunately.

You forgot to mention that a big percentage of Canadians love 4 seasons. Obviously tougher than you fragile snowflakes!

How bang on is your video! Absolutely right each and every point you mention and I speak from experience.

Good evening Sir.\nSir Please I'm graduated from UDS with Bsc. Agribusiness ( Agribusiness Management and Finance option) with a GPA of 3.15. And I want to come to Canada to further my education and if possible stay back and work after my studies.\nAnd want you to advice me as to which course do you think I should go in for that will be good for me going forward.\nBut I will not forget to mention that I'm the hustler type I don't like Office work though.\nThank you Boss God bless you more.\nThank you

Thank you very much for this very explicit video. Can you please spell the facebook group and forum names you mentionned in the end of the video. Many much again.

Let me explain what mr ashir azeem forgot to mention\n1- you will miss your friends and family you grew up with\n2- you will earn money , a lot of it, but you will spend it all too, don’t expect to become a millionaire . Only a car insurance can cost 1000s of dollars a year\n3. It’s a very individualistic society, people are busy within- ie selfish , be prepared to face that mental trauma when you are in need of some minor favor and nobody will be there \n4. Young guys moving to another country- you will miss the important events of your life (cousins, friends, siblings marriages) family ghumi khushi while working abroad , making dollars and paying all type of unimaginable bills\n5. When you have children, they will be a minority, in religion and also in skin color and will most likely be bullied in school\n6. It is difficult to practice your religion, and regarding your children, forget about it\n\nPeople only choose to share the part of info that’s positive in such videos that, grass is all greener here, just leave everything and run to here . Please Only make this decision if you are prepared to give up your family , your values , your social structure and your religion for a bit more money and cleaner Air

Sir, Please mention both pros and cons no matter how much money you bring into this paradise ?? you end up paying interest whole of your life on everything like paying back CRA instalment, house loan, car loan, credit cards bills, etc. Thanks

Very true what you have mention in this vdo.

a lot can be said about your narrative. you failed to mention the age of immigration. That alone is THE single most important factor on the out come of the exercise . anyone over 40 should not immigrate. second the education and skill set you bring will be a major factor in the out come. Third there is systemic racism after a certain level which one can feel in very job. i strongly believe one should come to Canada, get top quality education and skill, work with top quality people/organizations which should not be more than 5-6 years, then go back home. the long term price of immigration is huge. This country needs hands to work and pay taxes so that their show should go on. The BANKS are the GOD of the land. one can never obtain financial freedom ever. heavily taxed with very poor social bonding even among the same ethnic groups. yes its good for people who do not make it in Pakistan or bring in ill gotten money\ni know so many ex police DMG and others groups who are absconders from Pakistan and living in Oakvill etc. in addition who says it is safe here or it is a corruption free society, ANY body with a second mortgage has got it with fake documents with the help of brokers, the banks , CRA and every body know about it but being a highly HONEST society no one dare say a word! i will not even go into the thing called debt. it is a night mare for the vaste majority. remember Canada is much bigger than GTA

Every single person cannot be a victim of islamophobia but the family that was killed brutally was a victim of islamophobia. Canada is a good country and that doesn’t mean that there is no islamophobia. If you have watched your president’s interview, he also mentioned it islamophobia.

Kindly mention some good communities. Like how a new person will know about it?

How to mention past residence details if you have been staying in rented apartments for long

You mentioned to choose the house where there's good community. My question is how to find that specially if you have no one living there already. Who will guide us to find good community and good area?

Taxes remind me a thing: a couple of years ago when I was excesively paying taxes, I requested admin staff to please help me so that I pay what I must pay. They didn't help me. I went to my (above 80!!!) G.D. and asked him to sort it out please. He said, you are earning handsome amount, so you should keep paying this amount of taxes. :D :D Not to mention, he was a retired guy earning still about 4 times more than me and his family is settled in Canada too. :) God bless everyone!

I have been in Canada since 1999; I can tell you that you should be the spokesperson for Canada Tourism. \nI came here as a teenager on my own and most of the stuff you mentioned is very true. I am proud to call CANADA my home. \nI think you are wasting yourself to be honest; you should get into CBC and work with them to develop some amazing content as they lack multicultural diversity, DHUAN is your amazing resume anyways!!!

10:18 haha blue skye definately.. when i video called my friends, colleages and family the first thing everyone mentioned, how blue the sky was.. Now I'm moving with family next month.. I was waiting for this video, hopefully will be helpful! thanks I lived alone in Canada for over 1 year, now moving with my spouse. This video came at right point.. Thank you sir..

Forgot to mention the authoritarian government

Absolutely detailed video...loved it...I am hoping you can throw some light on how I can progress...I am a married woman and plan to apply for PR this year...however my husband and 7year old baby do not plan to move with me now (considering I get the PR)... might come after a a year or two...my question is if I apply as a married applicant..does my husband hv to still give the IELTS abd get his ECA done or can I mention married .. but since he's not going to be joining me immediately only get IELTS exams but not get ECA done now

A compelling documentary, thank you. Why is it that black people continue to be so demonised and de-humanised? It is such a shame that follow Asians and even American Natives play such a role in perpetuating racism against African descent people, but I guess they have their issues of identity. Real shame nonetheless, but one thing at the time, we still have a bigger hurdle to overcome.\n \nOf course, it is still not easy to be a black woman, man or child today. Sadly our mothers are still crying for their children being killed or overly punished by the police institution, our kids are still targeted if not simply despised for being beautiful, bright, talented, lively and brilliant beings with deeper skin tonalities, and hair that speaks for us otherwise. It is still dangerous because there is so much hatred across the world against us as we are coming to understand. And hatred is unpredictable. It comes in different ugly shapes. \n\nAfrican descent people are institutionally exposed to a lack of opportunities based on race, leading to the disproportionate poverty levels in our communities, and poverty brings your far closer to crime. That should not be so difficult to calculate. We're faced with higher mortality and disease rates, covid 19 has rubbed that to our eyes, care systems medical world is in less favour and neglect black communities. On a day-to-day, I am so insulted about the security guard that follows me in the shop, it is so disrespectful and embarrassing, that makes me move suspiciously indeed, yet so low and ignorant I don't even want to have to confront the issue. \n\nI agree with the writer who writes about his experience (and shame?) of being a black man in Canada- the same is institutionally reflected in Europe and across the world let's not be naive, we're not welcome but they should know they have no choice. I believe what he really is trying to express is based on the fear of being a black man in a hostile environment, but we should certainly have nothing to be ashamed of. \n\nOn contrary, we should be very proud because we are still here, like any other citizens paying our taxes and playing positive roles in society by major. We have positive role models are everywhere, from the single mother raising her children with force and determination to the black father who teaches at a local school, from the black girl who's achieved top grades to university to the black young man who's been headhunted from the medical school. And all of us who are just trying. \n\nLook closely. While the media will continue to do its good job demonising and stereotyping us negatively, let's not forget that we are real people with real accomplishments who have always made impactful contributions to society. \n\nHere's the thing, we are admired, loved and celebrated because of the brilliance, talent, charisma, swag and wealth we bring to contemporary culture. Everyone consumes black culture, from the filler lip service to the quick fix tan, from rock and roll to hip hop and RnB music, to sports athletes to the amazing creators out there, no need to mention names. But, we also are doctors, politicians, judges nurses, waiters, carers, scientists, builders, bankers, entrepreneurs, employees or unemployed. \n\nSadly on a day-to-day, we are not viewed as equal people, with equal rights and needs, who, by large, just want the good for our children, our families, neighbours and indeed countries. STOP INSTITUTIONAL RACISM. We are real mothers, real fathers, real children who have a birthright to equal treatment, respect and human dignity, whether or not you choose to disagree.

You forgot to mention different between fat Americans

Thank you for the demonstration, it’s really helpful. can you please tell where to we need to create express entry profile? Means the website not mentioned in the video.

Et, pour les 8 millions de Québécois de langue francaise, le reste du Canada est aussi différent que les USA! Sorry Drew, but you should visit Québec to see how different we are than the rest of Canada and the USA. We watch our own Québec TV shows, work and live in French, have our own Québécois singers - Céline Dion est well known, but who of you know: Ginette Reno, Les Cowboys Fringants, Bruno Pelletier, Robert Charlebois, Isabelle Boulay and hundred of others? You mentionned poutine, which was created over 50 years ago in a small Québec village. But what anglo Canadians knows about : tourtière, pâté chinois, grand-père dans le sirop, etc.? Voilà! Et, Merci pour tes vidéos, je les aimes bien. :)

Not sure if someone has mentioned this, but another difference is you have to pay for university applications here in Canada! First 3 I believe are $100 and another $25-50 if you want to apply to more but I don’t exactly remember

Hi thanks for just good and important information in such a small time, i really like to watch tour videos and do ask my friends also to watch your videos for more info, you have mention 3 names for virtual numbers site but which one is good in all in compare to rates and network

Really helpful for those who are seeking jobs overseas ...I have blog page where I mentioned some tips regarding the same topic, please review it and suggest https://www.techviiz.com/how-to-get-a-job-in-canada/ \nThank you ?

You forgot to mention our “Queen” whilst talking about Canada

It's funny af since America is mentioned in our itahasas it's called krouncha dvipa sugriva goes to California which is called kapilaranya and he describes America being an beautiful land with Rich culture he describes native Americans also if sugriva knew about this would happen he would have nuked the entirety of America with astras

facts! not to mention the political coups in latin america the U.S endorses and puppet politicians put in place to manage the corrupt governments. by them and for them to take natural resources. but hey lets point the finger that the poor souls risking family and everything to make a future for themselves. yea, lets do that instead.

Hi Jason,\n In my opinion you have not mentioned the link for express entry application means, where to apply?\n Please help me out for that.

How these problems were solved which you mentioned in the video ?? The refermece lettee of closed company or the funds issue ??

All explained about fb group.. mention about the group please

This video is the best step-by-step tutorial I've seen. \nQuick question, when referring to the police certificate, you mention that I only need to provide for the previous 10 years but the information on the IRCC website mention since the age of 18. \nWould you mind confirming it?\nThank,

Is this the future American circumstance due to upcoming caravans & Bidens welcome packets for immigrants? I can’t help but wonder what catastrophic effects it will have in the long run. They mention Canadá has been back logged due to all the asylum applicants. Biden is making it easier for Latin American countries by putting an asylum center close to them. This way they don’t make the trip to the port of entry to claim asylum

Hello, I'm from Sri Lanka. Will the salary mentioned in the Experience letter affect the EE or ONP? Because I'm getting a low salary for 3 years because of our company's financial situation. I can move to a new job for a high-salary job, but for completing three years in a job, I'm waiting up to Coming June 5th.
