New Canadians – First Five Years

Immigration demands careful planning to ensure smooth transition into a new environment. Successful settlement very much depends upon economic wellbeing, which is certainly a prerequisite. In most cases the advance economic projections are the criteria to make the decisions to emigrate.

Studies indicate that professionals and entrepreneurs take up to five years or more from the time of their arrival into Canada to become sufficiently conversant with the market conditions in Canada before they become fully effective within their professions and/or lines of business. One of JOR’s on-going studies indicate that such individuals, each face an aggregated reduction in earnings and/or opportunity costs in excess of one hundred thousand dollars within this five-year period. Another study by JOR shows a very large number of immigrants, both professionals and entrepreneurs under-perform for prolonged periods of time. In some cases under-performance becomes permanently accepted. Individual losses of up to two-thirds of the potential lifetime earnings are not uncommon in such cases.

The anxiety to face the unknown is eliminated and the losses are greatly reduced through the JOR Business Program for entrepreneurs or the Professional Performance Program for professionals who are contemplating emigration to Canada or those who have already arrived in Canada.

Those who have not yet arrived in Canada but have already been accepted for emigration to Canada by the Canadian authorities may register for the JOR Business Program or the Professional Performance Program in advance, while they are still in their countries of origin. This way they become fully aware of all the options that are going to be available to them when they arrive in Canada. The JOR services are commenced upon registration and successfully completed after their arrival in Canada.

The JOR services are also available to those who are contemplating emigration to Canada but have not yet applied for or are waiting to receive their official authorization to enter Canada. They are able to learn about their economic possibilities in Canada.

The services rendered by JOR may not influence the decisions taken by the Canadian authorities to process applications for emigration to Canada.

Those who are registered with the JOR Business Program or the Professional Performance Program are able to continue with the JOR services after their arrival into Canada as landed immigrants and achieve the desired results soon thereafter.
