Hello Sir. I am a digital marketing strategist currently in my late 20s. I finished my master’s degree in 2017 and have been working with the same company for the last six years. I am currently looking for job opportunities in US and UK to migrate from India. I hope to have better learning opportunities and living standards abroad. But many immigrant-accepting countries seem to have made their rules and processes stringent these days. The entire system flow seems to be very complex and beyond one’s reach. Can you suggest easier countries to migrate to from India?

Ans: Based on your profession, experience, and salary, you have several options to consider for permanent residency. Here are some countries that are popular among software consultants:

Canada: Canada is a great destination for software consultants as it offers a dynamic workforce, high safety, and world-class free public healthcare. The country’s average pay grade or rather median salary for software developers is also quite remarkable. You can apply for permanent residency through the Express Entry program1.

USA: The US is a dreamland for technologists from across the world. The country attracts students, techies, innovators, entrepreneurs, and business leaders from across the globe. US-based companies are always one step ahead in hiring talented tech professionals from every country. To work in the US, you will need the H-1B visa, which is in high demand right now as the restrictions have been lifted by the US government2.

Japan: Japan has been instrumental in the growth of the global tech industry for more than 6 decades. It is considered one of the wealthiest nations across the globe. Techies from mechanical, chemical, data, electrical, chemical, AI domains can find plenty of high-paying jobs in Japan. So, if you are a software professional from India, Japan can be a great place for you to work2.

Switzerland: Switzerland is known for its high standard of living, excellent healthcare, and education systems. The country has a thriving economy and is home to many multinational companies. The Swiss government offers a range of visa options for skilled workers, including the EU Blue Card2.

Germany: Germany is a great destination for software consultants as it offers a dynamic workforce, high safety, and world-class free public healthcare. The country’s average pay grade or rather median salary for software developers is also quite remarkable. You can apply for permanent residency through the EU Blue Card2.

I hope this helps you make an informed decision. Please note that the immigration policies of each country are subject to change, so it’s best to check the latest updates before making any decisions.

Ans: This is an important question evaluate the pros and cons, what skills does your wife have.

Immigration is no big deal, are you ready for the culture change, cost of living, you will have to start from scratch on reaching the country of your choice.

It's important that you have some reasonable employment before taking the plunge.

Go on a Visitor's Visa for around 2 months do your due diligence..!?

Ans: Sarbhjeet Sir, I hope you are still working for your present company. It's preferable to keep on with your current work till you land another one. If you would want to work overseas, here are possible actions/choices: (1) Using Job Alerts on LinkedIn allows you to try. Shortlist some preferred countries and try (2) Better to approach 3-4 Govt. APPROVED Overseas Job Consultants who would be able to assist you in discovering out choices. Take care, though, with overseas job scams. (3) Please be aware of the current Wars (Russia-Ukraine & Also Middle-East) should you decide on any one of the Gulf Countries. Two calm Gulf Countries you can try are UAE and Oman. (4) Have Plan B also by aiming for a better career in India itself either through LinkedIn or some other credible sources. All the BEST for Your Prosperous Future, Sir.

Ans: Try Dubai. Maybe Saudi Arabia. They do have high paying jobs. Dubai has a decent Banking Industry and can get a stable job out there. Saudi Arabia is trying to build its industry so a bit risky.
