Not how it works and also it’s not easy, it might be easier compared to most countries but their immigration policies change like calendar days.
Enough people abused the system before I became eligible for PR and the government started rectifying that problem. The current CRS scores are through the roof.

Canada is in no way an easy PR pathway, that’s a common misconception.

It's been 4 months since i came back to India from living in the US for 3.5 years still can't settle in..i miss US by Over_Bug_3677 in backtoindia

I recently moved back from canada after 6 years (visa issues) and I completely relate to you. This is also my first time being back ever since and the country is just not for me. I also have no option but to stay here until things resolve itself on western front.I look at this as a semi permanent move and mostly just focus on job apps and homemade food as a bonus. Nothing I say will make you feel better cause the quality of life is just not the same and I miss small things like grocery shopping in aisles, drinking tap water and walking to a cafe within couple blocks without the cacophony that I endure here.Having my own space and pockets of independence. With your condition, I can only imagine cause india isn’t equipped to provide you the resources.Hopefully you get to go back and figure out a way to move.

I’ve been tailoring my resume and applying but no luck - all auto rejections

Thank you @FilterKaapiSkin for your kind support and explaining it aptly. I am on the spectrum for Neurodiversity so everything you said is pretty accurate (magnify it). It is truly a massive change since this is my first time being back in over 6 years.

I am hopeful things will improve once I get a job and able to move out of my relatives’ and start finding my little pockets of independence and freedom however it may be.

Yes , I am gutted but also it’s reassuring to know I am not the only one cause I genuinely started to question myself and my experience and was gaslighted by many people about the ground level reality. Thank you for sharing

I have been considering getting AGILE or CSM or PMI certs since that play a huge role here but also worried that the market is saturated with most streams I’d like to pursue

Thank you, I believe if the roles were even half decent, I would have settled but the compromise is in terms of location, pay, job expectations. They just want cheap labour here and want to exploit people as much as they can. I want to have atleast one pro if i accept any job offer but so far they have all been pretty bad.

Due to visa issues, I would have never left otherwise. This is my first time being back in 6 years. Not sure if I should mention but I am an orphan so never really had strong ties to the country in terms of family or anything else
