The top most reason for me planning to immigrate to Canada is money. As I read more about the salaries and expenses in this country, I realise that although you can spend your life comfortably here but you can not save enough money to send back home. Is it true?

PS: I was comparing Canada to UAE only in terms of money. I am an IT consultant with 5 years experience expecting my PR soon.

Learn about PPP
And rethink about services charges

If you're comparing with UAE, no point in moving.

You're probably saving a good amount of money. Plus being close to home just a 3-4 hr flight away.

Taxes here were already one of the highest and now due to recession and inflation, everything is going bonkers.

You can relook in 2024-25.

UAE would be better than Canada

Savings in Canada will be pretty low if you compare it to Dubai and even India, it's definitely not the destination to look for money, Dubai will fare better.

But if you are expecting a PR then living in Canada for a few years, getting a citizenship and then moving around to other places like Dubai, Bay Area in US is also an option - probably more beneficial in the longer term..
