Get Quick & Easier Immigration Visa Process

If you are a young adult having a steady income in India, either single or married with a family, then surely at some point or other in your life, you would have thought about Immigration to another country. A number of things may have triggered the feeling of getting away from it all. Either it was the stories brought back from perfect cities with perfect roads by your neighbor who is back on vacation to visit his family from Canada. Perhaps it is the story of hiking through the Yosemite Valley, narrated to you by your adventurous cousin who lives in the USA, or the ultra-cool things your aunt who lives in London buys at Harrods. Whatever it is, you are sure to have thought about Immigration at least once.

However, the current political situation all over the world is forcing many people to rethink their immigration plans. Almost all the countries are tightening borders and making immigration more difficult than before. So why in such circumstances should you immigrate? Let’s take a look

Reasons for immigration – The immigrant’s perspective

A while back we took a look at how Immigration Advisors can help the host country, we now look at some of the reasons why immigration is a benefit to you even in the current situation

Countries such as Canada, UK, USA and Australia have healthcare policies in place which are geared towards benefiting citizens and residents. If you are planning to go abroad for work, then it is wise to think about getting residency
The quality of life enjoyed by people in countries such as Canada, Australia, USA and UK is far better than the one you can enjoy in India.
The infrastructure is far better in these countries than in India, the roads are well built and without potholes and traveling for those who live in these countries is much easier between places than for those who stay back in India
A person who lives in a first world country can also be on the right side of the exchange rate. You would be earning in a currency which would be of a higher value than the rupee. On account of the exchange rate, a person who lives abroad can have a comfortable lifestyle and still have a lot of money. Which is not possible if you stay back in India.
Schools up to university level are free in most of the countries. People who live in these countries, get the benefit of free quality education for their children. Also, the quality of education is far higher than in India
If you have children or are planning for them in the near future, then immigration to a first world country can be the best gift you give to them for their future. Universities in most of the first world countries have varying fee structures, wherein local residents have to pay a lower tuition as compared to international students. If you have already immigrated to a country like Canada, UK, USA or Australia which have the world’s best universities than your children will have to pay lower fees as they would qualify as residents.
This would be the best time to initiate the immigration process especially as more and more countries are tightening their immigration policies. If you do decide to immigrate then its best to do so before the process becomes more difficult.

Immigrate to Europe

Today, European countries stand as a prime dream destination for people of India to Immigrate to Europe, hence in the current years; the demand for Schengen Visa for passport holders from India who seek Overseas Immigration has increased at a fast scale. According to the figures from the Internal Migration and European Commission Affairs, over 7,00,000 applications for Schengen Visas were submitted by Indians in the year 2015.

A Schengen Visa is the document granted to anyone who is planning to visit any region within the Schengen States. The Schengen area is comprised of 26 nations that have agreed to permit free movement of their citizens within this region as a single nation. Out of 26 nations that are bounded by this Schengen Agreement, around 22 are part of EU and remaining four are part of European Free Trade Association.

The nations in the Schengen areas include Belgium, Spain, Austria, Czech Republic, Estonia, Denmark, Germany, France, Finland, Hungary, Greece, Italy, Iceland, Lithuania, Latvia, Netherlands, Malta, Portugal, Poland, Slovenia, Slovakia, Switzerland, Sweden, and Liechtenstein.

Schengen Visa is an authorization granted for:

An individual can transit through or can also intend to stay in the region of the Schengen states for a period of not more than three months on a Short Stay Visa.

An individual can also transit through the foreign transit areas of airports of the Schengen states with an Airport Transit Visa.

Types of Visas:

There are three types of visas available to travelers from around the world. They are Uniform Schengen Visa (USV), National Visas and Limited Territorial Validity Visas (LTV).

Schengen Travel Visa is granted to those who look to travel for work, business, leisure, and education or to visit their friends and families staying in the region. This type of Travel Visa is normally granted with the validity of three months.

There are 19 nations that are not part of the EU region and they are also not part of Schengen area, but they permit overseas citizens of other non-Schengen nations to enter and reside in their regions, only by showing a valid Schengen visa. Those visiting foreigners do not require a national visa granted from these nations to enter transit and reside in their region temporarily.

There are some points that travelers should keep it in their mind while applying for this Schengen Visa.

You require an invitation letter from the partner firm in the Schengen region.

Eligibility Criteria for Education Travel:

Acceptance letter from a University/College/School. Proof of your financial support during your stay in the region. University or college fees receipt.
