[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We’re moving to Europe. Not immediately, but in about a year. I’m a fired fed and my spouse is a more securely employed fed. Getting things lined up now to leave after the 25-26 school year. Two ES kids. We aren’t sharing with friends yet. [/quote]

Do you have citizenship or residency/visas lined up? What are you doing? I'm starting to think about it. My mother has retained a lawyer to pursue Italian citizenship. [/quote]
Also wondering how people are emigrating to other countries... I am one generation too far removed to claim Ireland or similar. No connections to get a job offer and work visa... [/quote]

In most countries you need to have 1) qualifications/experience working in a job they really need people for (for example, doctors and nurses are pretty much needed everywhere, highly skilled IT tends to be in demand, certain engineering disciplines, etc. There are opportunities that are somewhat country specific as well -- finance in Switzerland and high-level farming in New Zealand for example), or 2) a LOT of money to invest. And at this point most countries don't just allow you to buy a 1M house and call that the investment; many require investment in a business and employing a certain number of local people.  [/quote]

All you need for Canada is enough “points” on their point-system, and they award points based on education - which should qualify most feds for Canadian immigrant status.

Canada does not allow in unskilled laborers.  Canada also has a policy similar to “Wait in Mexico,” except asylum-seekers are forced to wait-in-U.S. for their turn in the Canadian immigration courts.[/quote]
