F-1 to H1B and Canadian PR

[canada_1111]

Hi Guys,

I have few questions, which I would like to ask. I would appreciate your help.

I was on F-1 visa, then I did my OPT and now I am on my H1-B visa. I also got my Canadian PR approved and I am planning to go to Canada in Feburary of 2005 for my Canadian PR process and also get my H1-B stamped. My F-1 visa is expired long time back. My questions are, can I go to Canada for my H1-B stamping. Is it true that new H1-B stamping should be done from the home country? Is there will be any issue if I go to Canada for my H1-B stamping. My company also applied for my US GC.

Thanks in advance for your help.

You will be fine if....................

You will be fine if

1) You were never out of status.
2) You completed the degree.
3) Your job is related to the degree and you take all required documentation.
You must be lucky to work fora company who is willing to apply for your greencard immediately upon hiring.
Thanks
