Hi everyone, I am very confused. Should I go to grad school here in the US or in Canada where I can apply for PR without having to prove that I am a political asylee. (forgive my sarcasm). I also have the option of filing H1, but that is only temporary solution. Thanks in advance~!

file for H1, concurrently apply for Canadian PR and complete your graduate studies in US ( part time )

Applying for Canadain PR is not that easy now.... you got to be in one of the 38 high demand occupations with at least 1 years of experience, and yet you got to meet 67 point score criteria. Do read this thread.. and check the links given in it. http://sajha.com/sajha/html/Op... Last edited: 04-Jun-09 09:54 PM

yeah, I don't meet the 67 point requirement. I only have 8 months experience in accounting, which was done as an internship. But now I am on OPT , working full time at the same company and hopefully will be able to apply for H1 soon. I agree with the part time study thing. I am planning on taking the CPA but I don't think it will be useful in Canada. Which is why I am considering Canada for graduate school. Do any of you know if we need to meet the 67 points requirement if we're on H1? Do you guys have any suggestions on how we can increase our points. I only have 63 at the moment. Thanks Guys! :)

Get married. You will reach 67 points. I guess thats the quickest way to get points.

Ha ha .... that depends on the wife's education level. However, don't marry two wives to get double points.. ha ha...

If you morons noticed, her hadle says "jadedkt"  , so she would technically get married to someone of an opposite gender .. unless you know something I don't, no pun intended. The probability of gettin an answer, "the right answer" advice in sajha is equals that of finding the "Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy", in your grandmom's "sanduk", specially one that involves your future. So ignore us. Go get some icecream, sit at a park and think... where you were 10 years back.. where you are now ....and where you see yourself in 5 years.. and think hard, of course while eating the icecream, even though multitasking takes a toll on your neurons, do not let that sucker melt away!   Good Luck.

i would like to suggest everyone to just set your mind on one thing and do it. often in sajha you find people who tell you million things that can go wrong if you  do something. however, only you know it's not worth living in anxiety and confusion for years. life doesn't run like that and time won't wait for you. look around, take your chance and if u fail take another one and don't listen to people who tell u this might go wrong and that might go wrong.
