Immigration is the process of moving from one country to another with the intention of settling permanently or temporarily. It involves legal procedures, such as obtaining visas or permits, and can be driven by various factors, including work, education, family reunification, or escaping hardship. Immigrants may seek better opportunities, improved living conditions, or safety in a new country.
Indians make up the world’s largest diaspora, with over 18 million individuals living abroad. According to the World Population Review, an independent research organization, the United States leads in the number of foreign-born residents, also referred to as 'immigrants,' with a total of 52 million.
Relocating to one of the world's leading countries can be a transformative life decision. Some of the key reasons individuals choose to settle abroad include:
Migration typically involves a mix of push and pull factors, which either work individually or together to influence the decision to move.
1. Increased earning potential
2. Greater job opportunities
3. Better healthcare and education
According to the United Nations Department of Economic and Social Affairs (UNDESA), approximately 232 million people worldwide are international migrants. An international migrant is someone living outside their country of birth, typically seeking work, education, or new opportunities for a better livelihood.
There are various routes to obtain permanent residency in a foreign country. The most common pathways include:
If eligible, permanent residency may be granted immediately, depending on the availability of suitable immigration pathways. Alternatively, individuals may choose to study or work abroad first and then apply for permanent residency later. Work or study experience abroad can make you eligible for specific immigration streams, such as Canada’s Canadian Experience Class (CEC) under Express Entry.
Many countries, including the UK, Germany, the US, Australia, and Canada, offer post-study work options, allowing graduates to stay after completing their studies.
Family stream permanent residency generally applies to spouses, children, parents, or other dependent relatives of a permanent resident or citizen.
Under the workstream pathway, permanent residence may be granted based on having in-demand skills or being sponsored by an employer. Other immigration options exist, and these vary by country.
The eligibility criteria for migrating overseas typically include the following:
Basic Eligibility: Such as meeting the requirements for programs like Canada’s Express Entry or Australia’s SkillSelect.
Language Proficiency: Meeting the language requirements as specified by the immigration program.
Health Requirements: Verified through a medical examination conducted by an approved panel doctor.
Police Clearance Certificate (PCC): Required to demonstrate a clean criminal record.
Proof of Funds: If applicable, demonstrating sufficient financial resources.
The specific requirements may vary depending on the immigration program and the country in question.
Each immigration program has its own set of minimum eligibility criteria. The documentation required to support your application will vary depending on the specific program you are applying to.
It is recommended to verify your eligibility prior to applying. The relevant government authorities typically review your education, identity, work experience, and overall background.
