Hello All !

I am working in US on H1 visa. But I am seriously thinking of moving up to Canada for better future prospects esp., when I see the kind of do n Donts on H1 visa in USA.

I have spoken to few immigration consultants and all give the range of professional fees as 1500-2500 USD. All say that passing mark for positive assessment is 80. I score 75 as I dont have job offer, no relatives in canada and I dont know French. So I have option of applying for Manitoba provincial program. I have no idea where Manitoba is, so i am kinda bit confused about this to go ahead or not.

Kindly guide me on few questions :-

1. If I get approved on Manitoba provincial program and get immigration cleared, Do i have to land in Manitoba?

2. If I land in Manitoba and stay there for 2-3 months, and if I get a Job offer in BC, ON, or vancuver or any other place after landing in Manitoba , can I move to that city and Start working?

3. Or Am I stuck with Manitoba for rest of my life till I get Citizenship in Canada.

4. Is there any rule for staying in Manitoba for 2-3 years before applying for canada citizenship.

5. How do I get a Job offer before moving to Canada?

6. Is that a good idea to apply for PR thru a immigration lawyer, They do promise me 100% money back guarantee if we dont get thru immigration.

Please advise me and Thanks in Advance.

1. Yes. You have to land in Manitoba?

2. Once you land in Manitoba and get your stamps. You can move to wherever you want.

3. Unless you want to. No. You can live wherever.

4. Staying anywhere in Canada for 3 years and you can apply for canadian citizenship.

5. It\'s a tough question. Try all the online resources.

6. Only if money is not a problem for you. You are an intelligent guy. Why don\'t you do everything youself. It is quite easy.
 
Intended employment

I have been looking through the forms and it asks for current employment and intended employment in Canada. For Independent Worker class, if one gives the current occupation and intended occupation same and after some time move to different occupation ie: start business or do a different job, will it create problems with canadian immigration?

Current occupation and intended occupation can give them idea what field you are from with experiences and educations. They want to just make sure that there are enough opportunities in canada for your current and intended occupation field. But once you land in Canada as permanent resident, you are free to do whatever you want (i.e. business or any kind of jobs).
