Depending obviously on tuition, but I can hardly afford South African tuition, I doubt I'll be able to afford Canada.(10-30-2022, 01:34 PM)Personherebb9 Wrote: 1) Will my online degrees have any influence over my immigration?
Depends on the country, but probably not. Depends, though. See below for example.

Actually, yes. If you can save up the money to get an in-person Master's degree in Canada, Canadian university graduates have some sort of fast-track to immigration in Canada. Does not apply to degrees obtained via distance or from other countries.

Yes. Comp Sci is usually on the list of "needed" or "highly qualified" professions for immigration purposes. It'll be easier to get a job in CS for immigration.

Almost certainly not US or New Zealand. I believe that Canada would be easiest, possibly followed by the Netherlands. But I'm not sure about that. I know it's pretty easy for an American to move to the Netherlands, but I'm not sure about someone from South Africa. If one of your parents was from the Netherlands, you should qualify for Dutch citizenship. https://harveylawcorporation.com/dutch-c...y-descent/
Netherlands is kind of a bummer. My dad is not Dutch, but my grandpa is (hence why I can speak dutch)... Unfortunately no options for grandchildren of Dutch citizens, he's also no longer alive so yeah, that doesn't really help.
My mom is ethnically fully Chinese (Chinese grandparents), however she was born in South Africa, making her technically South African so I can't use that either. On top of that my dads mom (grandma) is German, but was born in Wales..- Also dead. All this mixed ancestry and I get NOTHING for it xD.
Any other options for immigration?
