Yes, I am on an H1-B status. I really don't understand why my lawyer would say this..:confused:

Thanks for your response, RealCanadian. So the bottomline is that I can travel to and fro Canada. Correct? I would love to do that since every 3 months I get homesick. When I cross the border, will the border inspector will find out about the I-485 and question about it? Or would they...

Thanks for your response. I thought so too.. but my lawyer is putting me into this confusion.. that I cannot travel etc. In order to verify this I have made an INFOPASS appointment with an immigration officer sometime next month. I hope he/she can give me a definite answer.

I deperately need help this this one. I am a Canadian (born) who filed I-140/I-485 concurrently very recently. Is it true I cannot travel to Canada without getting my parole documents? I was a TN-1 holder but converted to H1-B last year. My H1-B work permit with my current employer expires...

Well, resume is ok but I believe it is not sufficient for showing your work experience. I can put just anything into my resume and claim. Another way: is to highlight the computer courses which you took in College and show how it ties up to your new job. The degree in something which is not...

Hi, You need to make sure you bring all your experience letters since your Engineering degree does not make you fully eligible for CSA. Also, in your sample letter, try to highlight your computer courses which you took in your University. The education needs to be related to the job. For...

CanadianKam: The answer to your question is 'No'.

Thanks Nelson.... However, does that mean, if I get incorporated in the US and work on a TN-1, it would be better?

Yes, I agree with you Nelson. I am paying Canadian Taxes on my world income now. I do meet the residency requirement since I own property in Canada and get a small rental income. I do have to pay CPP - which is fine. However, if it is a Corp to Corp, why would I have tax obligations in US if...

Thanks folks. From what I can interpret.... If I change from H1-B to TN-1, I can come back to a H1-B as long as I have not completed my 6 years...this seems to be good. Well !! I am still on H1-B but I was debating if I should come back to a TN-1. By doing a Corp to Corp, I donot have to...

Hello TN Gurus !! Would you know whether I can work on a corp to corp basis if I am incorporated in Canada? Will save on Corp taxes if i pay to CCRA? Currently, I am on a H1-B visa and am planning to switch to a TN with another company on an hourly rate... Your responses would be greatly...

Offcourse he qualifies..... It will be a smooth sailing in the border.

Check out the Buffalo Peace Bridge. I did it 3 times without issues... Only one time since it was a holiday weekend, the officer posed with a stern face and grilled me a little. Probably, it was a long hard day with two many travellers. However, when the officer saw my two year old standing...

Thanks Nelson. Let us see if we can consult a lawyer.

Thanks again, Nelson. You are really a great help to this forum. I hope you keep on responding to postings after you get your GC. About my wife's TN: Yes, you are correct. They donot offer CS minors in Athabasca. I just now checked it. The other option is to finish a few additional...

Anyone born in the US soil - whether legal or illegal will be a US citizen - as per law.

Nelson, Thanks for your prompt reply. Do you think a bachelors degree in General studies with concentration in computer science (minor) will help? Please advice?

Very Useful Forum. First of all I want to thank you all who actively contribute to this community. Here is our situation.... My wife is on an H-4 visa which is valid until October 2009. She got so tired of sitting at home therefore she completed a 3 years bachelors in General studies from...
