If I am a mexican 34 yrs old, speaks english, and is married (wife has
her own hair saloon) with 2 kids. Which would be my best bet to
immigrate legally to a first rated economy country?

While I can't answer your question as such, I just had a similar
question from a man in rural Puebla where we are building a house.  A
brilliant young man who speaks fluent English and has a degree in
Communications and high computer skills wanted to find (legal) work in
the US in the tourism industry.

The answer I received on Lonely Planet Thorn Tree travel forum was
that ski resorts in the U.S. hire many foreigners, helping them obtain
H1-B visas, for the six month winter season.  Of course, that does not
make the transition to full-time, but he hopes to make contacts for
full-time work.

It would be necessary to look for such positions on Web, I guess.

One might be cleaning hotel rooms for all I know, but with good
record, should be able to repeat every year.

Hope there is an answer for you.  It has to be a country which needs
more workers, and at this time except as stated above, that is not the
US.

Thanks, I did not knew that, that could always be an option.

Regards

you might want to consider thinking about matters from the other way
around.  Right now as mentioned above the US is overloaded with
foreigners so that's not a great option.  Western Europe of course is
worried because of the situation the arabs have put them in.  But how
about going to a place that will put you into a more favorable
position to migrate.  What I'm thinking of is Eastern European
countries such as poland or the Ukraine which at the moment are
nowheresville but within the next couple of years are slated to join
the European Union at which case all its citizens will be free to live
and work in any other EU country including the western European ones
(england France Germany) which might not accept you as one of theirs. 
At that point you could work as say a Polish or turkish citizen
(Turkey may also join the EU) in london or paris and live like the
people in those countries even though your EU passport will happen to
have "Polish" stamped on it

Excellent answer, i was not aware of this, will check with wife, do
you have to post it as answer to pay? or how do I do it?

The statement by  mosheebner-ga 
  

 "poland or the Ukraine which at the moment are nowheresville"

 Shows a high degree of ignorance about the subjectmatter:


Poland is spelled with capital P and already is in EU,
it is by no means a nowheresville, and it is not easy to immigrate to.

Traditional 'immigration countries' Australia, US, Canada .. are still
easier for legal immigration and integration.

Hola,

Si eres menor de 45 años, hablas ingles (intermedio - avanzado) y
tienes una carrera tecnica o universitaria, creo que Australia es el
mejor lugar para ir.
¿Por que?

1. El tramite de migracion es BASTANTE sencillo
2. No investigan tu pasado economico
3. Si vas a una zona de baja poblacion el gobierno te ayuda, y solo
estas obligado a quedarte alli por 2 años, hasta que te dan la
residencia permanente.
4. TODO el pais de desarrollado, no como en America Latina, donde solo
la capital tiene las mejores posibilidades.
5. El sistema de salud es de los mejores del mundo, que mejor que
asegurar tu salud y la de tu familia.
6. Si tu esposa sabe ingles... pues que espera??? Las peluqueras son
muy buscadas en Australia, hasta tienen bonificacion.

Te recomiendo asesorarte con un agente migratorio, es caro, pero vale
la pena la inversion.

No se si en Mexico habran otros, seguro que si, pero Southern Cross
son los mejores (y mas caros).

En Peru el tramite te sale aprox. 5000 a 6000 dolares. Si lo haces por
tu cuenta (debes saber MUY BIEn el ingles) te sale 2000 dolares aprox.
Si tu esposa no habla ingles te sale mas caro...

Gracias. Lo voy a tomar en consideracion.
