My husband and I are at the very early stages of talking about the possibility of eventually moving to Canada. From a career point of view I would have no problem but I still have over 2 yrs to go on my trust deed. Just wondered if anyone knows whether this would go against me. Obviously we have no savings at the moment for such a venture and it would be over 2 yrs before this would all happen anyway. Any information would be appreciated, thanks. [:)]

Hello fifi.
Every country will have their own processes about how they judge the potential suitability of immigrants.
In some cases this may include an assessment of their ability to take care of themselves financially upon arrival (rather than them being at risk of becoming a financial burden on their new host country).
Perhaps it would be worth calling the Canadian Embassy to ask what they are looking for when they judge applications?

Hi, I had a look in to the same thing a while back and couldn't really see any problem with it only that you had to be able to support yourself financially when you get there. Good luck x

Hi fifi
We have 2 or 3 Trust Deed cases who moved abroad with no apparent problems. 2 to Australia and 1 to USA.

Hi Fifi,
We have just been accepted to move to Canada and still have a year come August to go on our trust deed, we were never at any point asked about our financial past or bankruptcy/trust deeds, When we first looked in to this I did contact the trustee to see if this was indeed possible and was advised that many had done it before, we fully intend on continuing to pay our trust deed once we are in Canada and hopefully this time next year will be almost clear. So follow your dreams, its a start to something new and hopefully will benefit you on all fronts.

A move to Canada sounds good to me. I thought that you had to be able to show that you could support yourself if out of work - ie a decent level of savings in the bank?

Hi Kevin, you do if you go via the full immigration process, I've been offered a job and went via a 3 year work permit route, so they know you have a job to go too, we intend to put in for landed immigrant status after we have been there for 12 months, its a lot easier to gain full status that way when you are already working and living in Canada. Its not been easy, took us almost a year from the job offer to being granted the work permit, hopefully it will all be worth it in the end.
