First of all I would like to wish everyone life’s best on Thanksgiving!!!
This is my first post on this space. Yes, I am an Indian and I also have seen many post asking if someone can get a job after completing this program or not. However I have few other concerns as well on which I need an unbiased opinion from someone who is aware of Financial (Investment) Industry at the time being.
I have worked for BPO (US process) industry prior to this and interacting with Americans I was so influenced by them that I got a strong liking towards America and Americans. Thus I decided that I shall do anything and everything to be in the States. Thus I was of an opinion that CFA Program would help me achieve this dream of mine.
So now I want to know what all qualifications and experience should I have so that I reach the ultimate place I want to, in short what does it take for an Indian (me) to be in the States.
 
I think what you need is not the CFA but an immigration advice.
In your case the only viable option is via marriage. Go marry an American have at least one kid so that you prove that you marriage is genuine and so you will enter America and became also American citizen. What more could you ask for ?
 
I need to have a happily settled personal and a “professional” life in the States, thus I can’t expect myself to be a dependent on anyone.
And yes h1b/GC would be a more appropriate option for me.
A genuine advice/help would be appreciated.
 
If you are married that doesn’t mean that you are dependent on anyone because you will be permited to work in the US.
Btw considering how many Americans you know and that you have worked with them, by now you shoud have found the way to arrange H1B visa for yourself !
The GC is also good but only if you win. You can win next May but what if you never win ? You cannot rely on a lottery !
I wonder who the hell put in your head the CFA as a way to help ypu immigrate in the U.S. ?!?!?
 
Does that mean by me just marrying an American girl will open the doors to the Investment Industry even if in case I don’t have the so called gold standard?
