But still, I wish us all good luck in our applications! :)

Your right steven. .It's not easy to go to a battle without knowing your ways on how to win the fight. To all concerned citizens, i hope you'll give us fact feedbacks about the program. so that we will know or foresee our future once we arrive there.

hi yoopian! I am new to this site. I have read and followed your posts that you have applied for the skilled program in Quebec.. I am much interested about this and I am hoping that you will share me your insights about this... i have been working as a company nurse for almost a year now, and as you have posted in your earlier threads, a less than a year work experience is acceptable as long as you passed the assessment of the points system.. am i right? please, i need your help. thank you very much.

Go to the Immigration Quebec website. You'll find all the details there for the Quebec Skilled Worker program.

Good luck!

Hi, I am currently a working Nurse in a tertiary hospital here in the Philippines and I'm still on my first year. I'm really interested in trying this Quebec thing but I need more knowledge about it. Has anyone tried the agency called "Global Visas?" They are Immigration consultants and charge a hefty PHP 120,000 for the processing alone. That excludes the other fees like government, exam, mailing fees and etc. I am seriously considering on applying with them since they offer assistance as a Quebec Skilled worker but its just the French thing and the finance I'm worried about. Can anyone advice me on what to do? Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

Search for the official immigration website of Quebec. They got all the details there.

One thing you need to know about Quebec (other than their absolute insistence on fluency in French) - EVERYTHING related to education, registration, setting up a life for people who are not Quebec residents costs a LOT of money. It doesn't matter where you're coming from, they will charge you twice as much or more than they charge residents.

Getting back to the French language part - the exam is extremely difficult. I have lived in Quebec a for a number of years as an adult, am married to a Quebecer and have a fairly good grasp of French, but I could not pass the exam.

i heard that the french exam is only speaking and listening. we will not be doing the writing part because i admit writing is also my weakness. i am also waiting for my decision letter here in the philippines. God bless us!! we will be learning as we go along. it's not that easy and we will be struggling for sure before we can claim our Rn license and permanent residency but don't forget that God is with us all the way!! we just need to persevere.
