Reply #121: Did you calculate your points? [View All]

[Fiendish Thingy]

You do begin to lose points after age 55, but if your husband is a MD, there may be a NAFTA agreement to facilitate emigration for occupations that Canada has a shortage of. You get a ton of points for having a PHd. Having MS, on the other hand, could disqualify you, as you need to pass an immigration physical, although our immigration doctor said that there are only a few automatic exclusions, i.e. AIDS. Seriously, if you haven't pursued the points/NAFTA angle, you should, as Canada has a shortage of health care workers, especially MD's and RN's.

Good Luck!
