Indians on H1B waiting for green card: Getting Canadian PR as a backup
Have you considered getting Canadian PR as a backup option? Is it worth it? If you have already applied are you moving or waiting for next 3 years as the req is 730 days in 5 years.
Low TC, high peace of mind.
Canadian salary is lower than Indian salary if you take COL into consideration. I would go back if visa is an issue or I’m tire of waiting
Are you sure about this Rajjj ? I need to make a decision
Yep. I have friends working in Amazon Vancouver and Toronto. After tax take home is half of the same level in Seattle. But home prices are insanely higher than Seattle. They can barely save even though they live in an apartment in suburban
6 difference please between Canada and India?
Why canada is better than india? Safe life, women security, future of kids, better standard of living, clean air and water, better future for kids thinking about insane competition in india, even if you dont earn much have healthcare. Can travel, better passport value etc etc
Yup. On the counter point: (India v Canada) - zero visa hassles - lower cost of living - less racism / Canada-old-boys-networkism - cheap labor - family proximity - better schools - growing gc/startup scene
Canadian salaries are a joke. You can earn a lot more in India considering COL and tax. Plus, be near to family. Canada weather is too harsh. Opportunities are less in Canada, forget US but they are even lower than India. I personally don't see a compelling reason (people say standard of living but waking up in snow for 9 months a year & paying millions of dollar for apartment at that salary is not something I personally feel as high standard of living).
"too" - using words that won't add more information.
Toronto is a great city to raise a family. But it is expensive, salary is lower than bay area (about 60% if Bay area taking currency into account). You can live a pretty comfortable life on a tech salary, not worry about visas, try doing a startup while not worrying about healthcare. People from over 190 countriesivw in Toronto - You will feel welcomed in that city and not just 'tolerated'. It is also a much safer city and country in general than the us. Winter lasts from December to March and isn't very pleasant - the other seasons are amazing though. So it depends on what you value.
Canada is a shithole country. USA will annex within 3 years
Where does the shooting happen dude?

Why india is preferred over Canada? Near to relatives and better social life, less tax, less harsh climate, less depression, if you have money start new start ups, less work stress, booming economy, easy chance of getting work force
Near to relatives sounds like a giant curse to me lol. Also competition in India for jobs is insane.
How we will get it as a backup? Living in US?
It is not back up. You must either move to Ca, or revoke PR.
Why leave India at all, best women, best food, best men, best culture, best everything 🇮🇳 ✊🏾
Why leave India at all? $1 = 68 rupees
