Resign or leave- ? best option!
I am employed in a semi govt organization here in Qatar . i have just got permanent immigration approval for Canada from India.
Can someone advice, if i should resign and then go or i take one or two months leave to go to Canada and seek job opportunities. suppose if find good prospects, can i send resignation by email
First access the situation on CANADA and then "RESIGN". Due to current FINANCIAL CRISIS,it's not wise to just RESIGN right a way.
.
If you have any relative or friend in CANADA, be with him for 1month or so and analyze the environment there.

thanks. it is of great help.
I have seen numerous cases of people getting Canadian visas and having no intention to work there. They base their families there and continue working in the Gulf with higher packages (because of the new passport).
So, it all comes down to what your REAL intentions are. I would go with Baldricl's suggestion that you do the honourable thing and resign. perhaps you could get a commitment from your employer that he would consider taking you back in six months time if needed.
Good luck anyway :)
i was a little hesitant whether to express my thoughts, becaue it may be discouraging statement for helooo2020. For Indians, getting a Canadaian visa is like somethig like jackpot. It is no more. Yes, for your chidrens education and the social securiy scheme are all excellent
my husbands friend, MR J, still continue in QP. He has no repentance of cancelign his Canadian visa. May be he has seen the ugly picture, which normally we dont imagine
heloo2020,
Chances of you getting a job there now are very slim.
I don’t think you will immediately adjust to the country. It takes years when things go right, but at the moment life isn't easy there (high unemployment and huge tax loads).
If you have a family to take care of, perhaps it would be wiser not to take risks when you have little chances to succeed.
Take leave (don't disclose the reason to your employer) and go there to assess personally the situation.
Good luck!
Very well said Birdie!!!
There are people on this site who may tell different stories to you. But please take Birdie's words. Take a wise decision.
Everything's gonna be alright!!!
there is only 50% chance that you may "find a lucrative job in Canada "........
I have a friend wrking in QP, who got Canadian visa , a year back. He did a wise step. He took one month off, took all his family there, to stay with his friend, also to study the job market / living conditions etc
He is back in QP...he says he may cancel his Canadian visa, even thugh he lost financially
Not everythng GREENER on the other side , my friend.
Do the honorable thing. Resign.
A agree, take the 2 month vacation and try to find something higher paying. If you find something, just email them saying you are sorry but due to personal reasons you can not return. They probably won't be happy about it, but at that time you would have another job so it won't be like they can keep you from finding something.

Since in my contract one month notice period is required, so in that case, if i find canada lucrative in terms of job , salary, then in what manner should i resign from Qatar job?.
You could as a courtesy email them. There is nothing they could do about it, is there? I can't see them sending people to Canada to drag you back.
Take the 2 months leave.
