I'm planning to immigrate to Canada soon with my common law partner.

Here's my situation:-

Im 34, currently working as Costing Manager. Im at my final stage of CIMA. NOC should be 1112. I could finish the finals, get accreditation from Canada Accounting Board as CIMA have some agreement with them. However, when I check for express entry, unless I have a job offer (which is impossible). Im not eligible to apply.

So my current option I have at hand is

1) get a accounting degree at Canada and continue work from bottom up. I doubt my CIMA will get me anything

2) Change profession. Im interested in Dental Hygienist. The cost would be CAD60,000 excluding lodging. taking an accounting cert would be around 30,000. so double the cost. However the pay between this 2 will also be the same.

Any advise?

I just don't like it generally. my cousin and friends keep asking me to go Australia. Probably because I worked at a few Australian company here and don't like their culture.
Halifax, Ontario, Alberta. These are the few places I have in mind.
Problem is that changing to medical, I need 1 year foundation and 2 years of studies. by the time I graduate I would be too old. 37. Taking an accounting degree would be faster and I have experience in this field.

I'm quite in doubt. Here I have house, car, and living an average life. Kinda disappointed in the country as a whole. I don't see this country going to progress any further. As a non bumi, I find that opportunity here is getting worse.

I could sell all my property here and pay as deposits for a new home at Canada. Getting the funds for education will be from my savings and small investments
