Hi All,
I will get my PR within a month or so. I work for a client in US on H1 visa which is due to expire in Feb 2006. Can I join a consulting company in Canada and work for a client in US? Do I need a US visa to travel or can I travel on my Canadian PR between US and Canada?
I saw that this question was asked but could not find an answer in this forum.
Thanks-
 
To work in the US, you would still need a valid US work visa. In fact, even to enter US after Canadian PR, you need a valid entry visa.

On the other hand, you can work in Canada for a US client (like telecommuting).

Once you get Canadian citizenship, you do not need entry visa to enter US, but still need a work visa to work. But Canadian citizens are open to NAFTA TN visas obtainable at US border & renewable every year.
 
Thanks sapota1,
I am in my 7th year H1. If I don't get the renewal for 8th year then I might think of moving to Canada.
If I plan to stay in Canada for 1 year and visit US few times on B visa then can I still get H1 visa for US after 1 year? This is because my client in US may agree for something like this and I am not sure if I can get as good a Job as I have in US.
Thanks once again.
