Re: where do i start?
no husbands parents both moved out there 8 years ago.
I'm 37 husband is 32.
I've been looking into jobs and think we may have to go with my qualifications rather than his but I need to get mine assessed so I can work there. Does anyone know the best way to go about it? I've got my NVQ3 in childcare.
thanks x

Assessment of qualifications:
Have your education assessed — Skilled immigrants (Express Entry)
If you read carefully, & then scroll down the page, you'll find the relevant assessment info.
IIRC, some NVQs may be assessed as the equivalent of "A" levels/a high school diploma.
(See also BE Wiki).
Additional thought, & sorry if it sounds negative, it's highly unlikely you'd get an LMIA (temporary work permit leading to 600 extra points) for an ECE post

Almost certainly not going to get an LMIA for an ECE post. It's up there with teachers in that there is a massive over-supply of applicants for the number of jobs.

No!! Please don't waste your money! It wouldn't be anything other than an unnecessary/useless expense, given the info you have provided so far.

SEriously, don't hire someone. You'll throw away money. Your case isn't complicated.
You COULD go on a study permit, but it isn't cheap. International student fees are pretty high. But if you can afford it then yes you can go on a study permit and your husband should be able to get a work permit for the duration of your study.
