28F CA (Big 4, 3 yrs exp) Planning to Move Abroad from Toxic Parents & Forced Marriage
Hi everyone,
I’m 28, female, a Chartered Accountant with around 3 years of experience in statutory audit. I can handle office pressure, but my family situation is becoming too much.
My parents are very controlling and emotionally abusive. Even at 28, I have to ask permission for everything. I can’t go out with friends for a movie properly, can’t go on trips with them for more than one day, and parties are totally out. They always say “ijaatdar log aise nahi karte.” There’s always fighting and taunting at home. It’s draining me mentally.
Now they have chosen a guy for my marriage and I have no say. If I talk about wanting to choose my own partner or even mention love, they start character assassination and make me feel like I’ve done something wrong. Love is a sin for them.
I’m feeling completely trapped and hopeless. I just want to move abroad, live independently and have some peace. But I don’t know where to start.
Please help me with any advice:
Which countries are possible with my CA qualification and 3 years experience?
Which visa is easier – Canada, Singapore Australia, UK, Ireland or somewhere else?
How is the job scene for accountants/auditors there?
What salary can I expect in the beginning?
Any experiences from girls who left alone from strict families would be really helpful. I’m ready to work hard, I just need a way out
Also If there are any opportunity in India -City mainly Delhi, Noida banglore and Hydrabad will also work for me for the time being and want to change city first. Mumbai Pune won't work as I have many relatives there so I would be forced to stay with them.
