Hello everyone! How are you all? I am back with a new video.
So, in today’s video, we’ll talk about
"Why people move for PR and where you should move for that"
I thought of shooting the vlog outside because its 3 degrees, but still, it’s very cold,
so let’s hop inside the car, where I’ll share all the details with you. Let’s go.
If you guys follow me on Instagram, then you might know that I and Parul have started a new company called "Canada Mastery".
It’s a platform where we’ll try to provide all the knowledge and skills that an immigrant needs,
so do check it out.
Our first course will be out soon, which will be Immigrant Investor, so quickly join the waitlist
so that you can get notified as soon as the course comes out.
This course will be a breakdown of stock market investing, and you’ll go from beginner to advanced investor.
So, do check out the link in the description.
Alright, so let’s talk about the process of moving. Many people commented on the last video that why it still taking time after moving.
People have the misconception that when you move, you’ll get your PR on the spot and don’t have to do anything.
This is not how it works.
So, I’ll break it down from the very beginning, showing where the problems of moving start and end and how to tackle this problem.
So, let’s first talk about India. In India, what most of the people do, I’m talking about 3–4 years ago,
nowadays, there's a lot of awareness and there are many vloggers who do this, which is a very good thing,
and the students who are coming here have detailed information, which is a good thing.
But before this, what used to happen was that consultants used to get good commissions from the colleges of big cities,
and these big cities were Toronto, Vancouver, Montreal, etc., where the study culture is very nice and you can find a lot of colleges there.
What used to happen was that consultants used to take commissions from college per student and send them to those colleges.
This thing used to work before because the required PR points were very low.
But for the last 3–4 years, the cut-off for express entry has been very high, which is above 450 or 460, I guess.
I’ll give you an example: if you’re coming here after 12th grade and do a 2-year course and 1 year of work and have a good IELTS score,
your overall points will total 425.
So, reaching the target of 490 is impossible, so this is the main reason why people move.
So, the main reason why people move is because the point’s cut-off has become very high, which is impossible for 12th grade students.
Because of this, the students who have already arrived in these cities (Toronto, Vancouver, Montreal, etc.)
know now that PR is impossible there
because the cut-off is very high, and what they do is move.
Now, where they move, we’ll talk about this further, just like I moved to Winnipeg.
There are also many provinces, and in this video, I’ll tell you which provinces you should move to.
This is very important, and before moving, you have to think a lot.
Why? I’ll talk about this also,
but let’s talk about how to tackle this problem.
For this, you have to ask yourself two questions. First, do you want PR first, or do you want to have a good education?
So, if you’re coming for a diploma course after 12th grade, then my advice for you guys is
not to come to cities like Toronto, Vancouver, Montreal, etc.,
and I’m telling you this from my experience. You must do your own research, but according to my personal experience,
you can have a good education in these cities, but after that, a lot of your time will get wasted.
It’s been almost 2 years since I moved from Toronto to Winnipeg, and till now, my PR process is going on,
which is fine; I’m not in a hurry; I’m just telling you guys. I trust the process;
I’m not in a hurry.
But you can learn from it that the knowledge that we didn’t have 4-5 years ago is now available to everyone.
If your goal is getting PR, then there are the provinces.
Keep in mind that I’m not encouraging you guys to come to these provinces.
What I’m promoting here is that if you want to save time and want to get the PR first, go for these provinces,
and I’ll tell you about these provinces later. Second, you want to have a good education and get a degree.
If you want to have a degree, then you can come to provinces like Toronto, Vancouver, Montreal, etc.
because there are very good institutions. It does matter a lot, because you get top universities here,
and by this time, you should not have PR as your goal, because I always used to say
that if you want to have a good education and want to do a master's and get a degree, either you trade your time or your money.
It means that either you get your diploma, then go for PR, and then complete your degree;
in this case, you’re trading your time because you’re not financially sound, just like I was.
Or, you trade your money, you get a degree from a good institution, you pay your fees, and you can save your time.
But it’s up to you to decide what’s more important to you.
In my case, I knew that I’m not financially sound and that my family can’t afford a degree.
We can do a diploma somehow with the help of a loan, but a degree is too much. So, I chose a diploma course in Toronto.
But, now if you think you also can’t do this, then I’ll suggest to you guys that Toronto is not the right choice.
I would suggest that you choose a province where you can get PR easily.
So, let’s now talk about what those provinces are that you can choose from. So, it’s clear to you why people move.
They move because their points are low and getting express entry in provinces like Toronto is very difficult.
One more thing: express entry is federal, so the express entry points in Toronto are the same as those in Manitoba,
but the PNP differs here or in provinces like this.
Now, what is PNP? I’ll tell you later, along with those provinces where you can move, so that you get a clear vision.
So, let’s talk about it.
Let’s take a moment to talk about today’s video’s sponsor, NEO FINANCIAL. NEO FINANCIAL has been with us for around 1.5 years
because my primary card is a NEO FINANCIAL credit card.
The best thing about them is that there are no fees for their credit card. You don’t need to pay any annual fees,
and you can sign up for a credit card for free. The limit of 8,000 CAD will be approved in just 5–10 minutes.
Talking about their other features, their savings account is my favorite part because they give an interest rate of 2.25%,
which is a huge thing.
And you get interest credited to your account every month according to the annual rate of 2.25%.
The third thing is that they now have a money card that you can use as your debit card.
If you don’t want to apply for their credit card, you can go for their debit card, and you can use that as well
because most people already have credit cards and don’t want to go for another credit card.
They can definitely go for their debit card, and you’ll also get cashbacks as well, which are around 1-5%, which is very amazing.
You can see it on the screen. I get cashback every 2-3 days, whenever I use the card,
since the NEO FINANCIAL credit card is my primary card. Check out the link in the description; you’ll get a bonus of 25 CAD if you use my link.
Do check it out and share your experience with me. Now, let’s get back to the video.
Now, let’s talk about the provinces. According to me, these are some of the provinces that you can choose for an easy PNP.
To talk about PNP, I need to make a whole video.
PNP stands for Provincial Nominee Program. In this case, the province nominates the individual so that their PR file can be applied for.
Now, in this, as you get your PNP, you get 600 points.
So, these points are added to your previous points, which makes things easy.
But there are some provinces that allow this. The first province that I’m going to talk about is Saskatchewan.
In this province, getting a PNP is very easy. You can study there, get a 6-month experience, and then get your PNP.
The next province that I’m going to talk about is Prince Edward Island.
This is a very nice province; you can also come here, study here, or simply move here.
Because most of the people are coming from India and there are those who simply want to move, these can be options for both of them.
I’ll not suggest you move to Manitoba for now
because when I moved to Manitoba, the cutoff was around 510–520 (for PNP), and right now, its 700, which is very high,
and the people who move here have the points around 600.
So, that’s why I’m telling you guys that Saskatchewan and Prince Edward Island are good options.
Nova Scotia is also a good option, but I’ll say that these provinces are good options for getting PR.
You have to check some other things as well when you want to move, that is, how the local area is there,
what’s the job system there, because I can’t talk about every province, but you have to check how jobs are in these provinces,
are there any jobs available, how’s the housing market, is finding homes easy or not, etc.
So, I thought I should make this video so that people can know the reason behind moving and what provinces they can move to.
At the moment, if someone asks me, Manitoba will not be the province that I’ll be suggesting because,
when I moved here, this was a nice province, but for now, it’s not a good option.
But if you want to come here after 12th grade, then the process is the same: you have to work for 6 months after studying,
then you’ll get your PNP, and after that, you can easily apply for PR.
After getting PR, you have to stay in the province for a while, but if you want, you can move;
there are no such restrictions that you’ll have to stay there your whole life. But, yes, you also can’t shift the next day after getting PR.
Because when they give you PR on the basis of PNP, the purpose behind this is that you’ll stay in the province
and contribute to the economy of the province.
