I don't have much information on your question but I am interested in making the amount you claim to make monthly. I am a fresh graduate awaiting service. I would be grateful if you could respond to this.

This is not about Canada but any country...

If you don't have proper plans before embarking on the journey, abroad is not that easy...

Considering the standard of living in advance countries, na bills and tax dey chop most of the money...

Btw, every country is an abroad cos if you ask British man in Nigeria where he is, definitely he is in abroad

Yes... a number of business men in Nigeria regret their canada move, they have not worked in a long while, while business is not something you can just start anyhow over there... most times they are reduced to blue collar jobs if they are able to find any.. some return leaving their family..

Nice one, This is what am trying to abstain, I don’t too put my life on reverse, I want to know the reality

Some regret, some didnt

it is easier for young people to adapt than older people

I see less regrets among young and single people

The downside of canada is the weather, the tax, the lonliness that is if you live is small towns.

Living abroad can be fun and also can be bad, paying of rent monthly is very important or else you will land on the street without no support.

95 percent regret. If you did not school there, don't go there. I mean first degree not masters. Don't dare, else you drive taxi.

If you hard working and smart, I bet you will be forever grateful especially if you have a family with kids. That’s probably the best way to set your kids up for success in life cos they have a system that works. Am talking from experience BTW.

Yeah I am in a similar situation but its not just about the money.. It about the life style, standard of living, the security, securing a better future for your kids and job security etc

I know a few senior colleagues that even earn higher, they made the move and are not regretting it, one of them told me how his company had to shut down due to the covid19 and few days later he got over four different job offers from other companies.

Bottom line is you should be ready to work hard and smart and alway remember where you came from and why you had to come there.. Don't let the easy life over there deceive you

Canada
United States
Uk
Or other 1st world countries are wonderful for relocation

If you fall into this categories Don't abandon your career to move
- Your earn 200k upward
- you have finacial backup
-you hav running buisness
-you are doing well

If you fall into this categories you can consider migrating

-you jobless
- you earn 150k below
-you fall below average standard
-you don't have any running buisness
-you are managing

Canada is a wonderful country but its not as easy as you think... You make cool income but gov is waiting for your tax... Things are pretty expensive unlike the states...

If you doing well just go for a visit and meet with nigerians over there to give you more life stories
Dont quite yet...


Goodluck

Hes not doing well. Because if he was, he wouldn't be thinking of migrating. Lastly what is wrong with paying taxes? Why are Nigerians so uncivilized. You complain government doesn't do anything. Then when you live in a country where the government does something, you complain about taxes.

Relocation most times is not about the money. Some get good jobs some dont. But nothing beats staying in a system that works, good health care( buhari amd family use foreign health care imagine), good opportunity to change careers etc. You are also guaranteed a good future for your kids. I have not met any Nigeria regreting since i came here. This is me coming home at 11.30 am last week without any fear of my safety. Nothing beats that bro

Thanks but I won’t lie am about the money , I have a lot of bills to settle , How much did you make here monthly pls, If the minimum I will make here is 300k minimum , I will move next two month by God Grace. The max I can make is unlimited, I am about minimum earnings. Even if the place is a bush , mine is money , All this high building can’t put food on my table , My problem is more than admiring beauty.

why do Nigerians in abroad engage in crime and drugs in order to make it?
The people doing legal stuff are just managing to get by with bills, tax both home and abroad?

well canada immigration is not about money but if you qualify. https://www.nairaland.com/6081746/canadian-express-entry-federal-skilled check here. Do u have a masters or bsc plus an extra qualification Can you score highest points in ielts. Are you below 31, do you have 3 years experience. If yes you would qualify.

If you're have 200k to 1m Canadian dollars then you can try investors visa. Dont listen to any agent saying they can work canada visa for you. Premium tears loading.

Some have no papers and some are just criminals. Myself and the people I'm around aren't struggling at all. Taxes actually make life easier and cheaper. Only Nigerians in Nigeria feel taxes is a bad thing.
