My name is Sara Khan, and I’m from Karachi, Pakistan. I graduated with a Bachelor’s in Software Engineering from NED University in 2018. After working as a full-stack developer for 3 years in Pakistan, I decided to pursue my dream of living and working in Canada.
I chose the Express Entry system because it offers a direct path to permanent residency. The process is points-based, considering factors like age, education, work experience, and language proficiency. I knew I needed to maximize my CRS (Comprehensive Ranking System) score.
Global Consultants helped me understand the Express Entry system thoroughly. They guided me through taking the IELTS exam (I scored 8.0 overall), getting my Educational Credential Assessment (ECA) done, and creating a strong profile. They also helped me with the Provincial Nominee Program (PNP) application, which added 600 points to my score.
After creating my Express Entry profile in June 2022, I received an Invitation to Apply (ITA) in just 3 months. The consultants helped me gather all necessary documents, including police certificates, medical exams, and proof of funds. They made sure everything was perfectly organized.
In December 2022, I received my Confirmation of Permanent Residence (COPR). I moved to Toronto in March 2023 and found a job as a Senior Developer within two weeks. The tech scene in Canada is thriving, and I’m earning CAD $95,000 annually.
Canada has been welcoming and diverse. I’ve met people from all over the world, and the work-life balance is excellent. I’m now planning to sponsor my parents to join me. The Express Entry system was the perfect choice for me, and I’m grateful to Global Consultants for making it happen.
