You can move to Canada
You don’t need to resort to a sham marriage to move to Canada. Their skilled worker program, Express Entry, is a real option for many Americans.
Are you under 35? Do you have a degree? Do you have a year or more of professional experience? Then you meet the requirements to apply for permanent resident status in Canada.
Canada has a points-based system for immigration. If you have enough points to convince the Canadian government that you could succeed in Canada, you don’t even need a job offer.
Do you have ‘manager’ in your title? Do you have $12k in savings? Then you’re basically good to go.
The process is simple, but you’ll have to take an English exam (really) and gather a bunch of documents. The whole system is online, in a system that’s designed to be user friendly for the average person. There’s no need to hire an attorney.
The whole Express Entry process typically takes 6 months or less. You become a permanent resident the day you land, which gives you basically the same rights as a Canadian citizen. You can apply for citizenship in 4 years -- and keep your US citizenship so you can vote from abroad.
There’s still hope if you don’t qualify for Express Entry.
You can move to Canada by getting a NAFTA job, going back to school, or getting a working holiday visa. Those are all temporary, but they can set you on the path to citizenship.
Not ready for Canada?
