Argentina
Argentina has always had a rich history of immigration,
resembling the same ideals envisioned in North America with
its openness to other cultures and their citizens. As the
American Dream in North America, The Promissory Land was the
name of Argentina Dream for would be newcomers.
From the second half of the XIX century Argentina has become
the new home and the fulfilled hope for a new life for
millions of German, Italian, Spaniards, Polands, Russian and
nationals from every corner of Europe.
There , just as in the North, these immigrants have risen to
the top of society, bringing their own culture and customs
with them, giving and receiving to the culture around them.
Because of these open policies of immigration, Argentinian
culture has been transformed forever into a blend of European
and South American customs which have captured the hearts of
countless visitors, many of whom find it difficult to ever
leave. In South America, Argentina was and still is the
country of dreams, a place where all are welcome, and where
everyone could find a new beginning.
Today, Argentina is pursuing that dream, We at InterWorld are
looking to become the destination for those from North America
whose ideals can no longer be found at home. A country where
life is still celebrated, where culture is still valued, where
the elderly are still respected and the young still have hope,
this is what Argentina is The place where the best day has not
yet dawned.
Australia
Australia, considered by the Untied Nations (UN) as one of the
countries with the best quality of life in the world, offers
130 thousand work visas annually for immigrants who want to
move permanently to the country. 100 thousand of these visas
are destined for qualified employees.
This nation has 23 million inhabitants of which 9 million is
the active work force. The country is almost as big as the
United States but has an unemployment rate of less than 5%.
Amongst the ocupations most highly demanded there is a great
deal of variety. They include accountants, engineers,
designers, marketing and communication and primary and
secondary teachers.
How ever the most highly seeked jobs are as chefs,
hairdressers, electricians and carpenters. In this sense,
Szurman remarked that “only those who are looking for work in
the education sector need to have a very high level of English.
For the rest, and intermediate level should be sufficient.
Immigration or residency mean the same thing, and there exist
many categories, the most common being the General Skilled
Migration, designed for professionals with work experience in
their area of study and other requirements. The acceptance
system for a new immigrant is based on a point system, where
the pass note is the sum of your aptitudes, experience and
family situation.
For a well qualified person who is relatively young (age also
counts as points), there are very good chances of being
accepted depending on the points that you score in other areas
such as your English language level.
Canada Canada is one of the world's top immigration
destinations with over 200,000 new arrivals coming under the
Canada immigration system every year. Deciding to immigrate to
Canada is a significant step in the lives of those who pursue
this dream. The Canada immigration section of our website has
been created to help those seeking to live and work in Canada.
We can play an important role in obtaining your Canada visa
and starting a new life.
Immigration to Canada is based on the skilled worker category,
which is a very popular visa program and is intended for
people with high levels of skills and experience. Canadian
immigration also includes a special visa category for business
immigrants. Citizenship and Immigration Canada, the Canadian
Government's Immigration Department, also allows the province
of Quebec to select immigrants. Just as importantly, 40
percent of annual Canada immigration is under the family
reunion and refugee programs.

Canadian visa or Canadian work visa and about immigration
Canada in general. All cases are dealt with by a lawyers

New Zealand In early 2004, the entire Skilled Migration scheme
for New Zealand was overhauled. The new Skilled Migrant
Category (formerly called General Skills) has been designed to
attract highly-skilled migrants to New Zealand, particularly
in those industries and regions of New Zealand experiencing
growth and skills shortages.
The Scheme has been designed to comprise two stages: the
lodging of an Expression of Interest and the Invitation to
Apply for Residency. These stages and the process involved are
explained in more detail in the sections below.
Please note that it is unlikely you will qualify for residency
unless you have a job offer in a particular industry or in a
low-growth region in New Zealand. Presently, you need to score
a minimum of 100 points to be able to lodge an Expression of
Interest. Applications in the Expression of Interest pool that
are being invited to make a Residency Application are, on
average, scoring at least 165 points
UK In March 2006, the UK announced its new approach to
immigration using a points based system although this system
is not expected to be in place until, at the earliest, mid-2007.
Here are some of the changes it will bring.
Under the new scheme, it will be simpler for highly qualified
immigrants to obtain visas, while less skilled immigrants will
find it more difficult (as has always been the case!). Now,
however, specific points will be awarded to all potential
immigrants based on the applicant's age, financial situation,
education, qualifications, English language ability and other
factors. All applicants other than the most highly skilled
will need to provide a certificate of sponsorship from an
approved sponsor, such as an employer or a school, when making
their application. Sponsors will have to apply to sponsor a
potential immigrant and will also be rated by the Home Office.
The new system is not a linear ranking of attributes but a
system of weightings and trade-offs. This means that, for
example a person with just a Bachelor's degree and high
previous earnings, or someone with a UK PhD and relatively low
previous earnings would equally earn enough points to apply.
The government says the system is still objective to use,
since it is clear how many points will be awarded for a given
attribute, and how these attributes can be combined to gain
enough points to make an application.
The UK has introduced a number of new UK immigration,
naturalization, UK visa, work permit and UK working visa
categories in the last few years. The points based skilled
immigration category the Highly Skilled Migrant Programme (HSMP)
introduced in January 2002 has proved to be very successful.
There is also a new low skilled UK work permit category for
the sectors based visa. There are likely to be further UK
immigration changes soon that will allow even more people to
gain entry to the UK. We will keep you up to date on all these
UK work visa, work permits for UK and UK immigration
developments. You may have to wait months for your UK visa
application to be processed by the Home Office Immigration
Directorate, or spend the whole day there to then find that
you do not have all the relevant documentation
There are a number of other options: A Business visit visa –
For trips to the UK of up to 6 months, a visit visa can be
used where the work to be performed is limited; the official
guidelines state that the following may come to the UK as
business visitors:
Advisers, consultants, trainers, troubleshooters etc, provided
they are employed abroad, either directly or under contract,
by the same company (or group of companies) to which the
client firm in the United Kingdom belongs. Their involvement
must not extend to actual project management or to providing
advice or consultancy services direct to clients of the United
Kingdom company. Training should be for a specific, "one-off"
purpose (for example, training in the use of products
manufactured overseas or training specific to the operation of
a group of companies of which the United Kingdom firm is a
member). The training should not go beyond classroom
instruction and should not otherwise be readily available in
the UK;
Representatives of computer software companies coming to
install, debug or enhance their products.
Representatives of computer software companies coming to be
briefed as to the requirements of a United Kingdom customer.
HOWEVER if they are to provide a service involving the use of
their expertise to make a detailed assessment of a potential
customer's requirements this should be regarded as consultancy
work for which a work permit is required;
These regulations allow considerable flexibility for an in-house
training/roll-out team, and give considerable freedom to
employees of such companies as Oracle, SAP, etc. who are
rolling out their own products at client sites. As the
majority of IT roll-outs are conducted by consultancies who
are using products manufactured by a third party, such
activities will require a work permit.
