Last year, my sister had migrated to Canada together with her family. She's telling me to start processing my papers as early as now. But the problem is, I don't have yet the minimum 1 year required experience with my profession as a nurse in the hospital (i'm currently working in a review center for nurses). Is there a chance for this dream. I want it so bad especially this year to save money and prepare for my future family. Can you help me? Any suggestions?

It's difficult to work as a nurse in the Philippines nowadays. So, if you have a chance to work there even as a volunteer, go for it. This will help you gain the minimum experience required. Goodluck!

Yes. Really having a hard time! But I'm still consulting the agency with this matter. They told me they could actually accept less than a year experience but you will just have to pay the medical director to increase your experience. Sounds interesting. Thanks for the advice!

You are in the first year of your nursing career so you could apply as soon as you reach one years work. For now you could save money, begin filling out the application and then decide which locality in Canada you hope to move to. Your sister will be ever so pleased once your application can go through. Good luck with your desire to emigrate to Canada. I visited British Colombia last summer and think Canada would be a wonderful country to emigrate to.

Canada is really over rated but we Filipinos are always looking for greener pasture. There are other countries that are open and available, do not fix your self to other opportunity. Your not doing bad, at least you are doing your best like saving up money and trying to get a clinical experience. Do not loose hope if that is what you really wanted. God bless man.
