so what if someone is working in a production data center and needs to be physically present in office daily? they work in IT industry, but still need to travel. do they need to sit home and lose their jobs? it is not possible for CBSA to tell who needs to go to work and who need not. if someone...

Only suggestion I have is to avoid Detroit Windsor border when you land next time. The officers in the border aren't super friendly.. just a personal observation. Try landing in Niagara falls . If your spouse has given biometrics, then she (or all of you) can wait from Canada after landing...

i don't believe they could ask that. an employer is petitioning you to work from a particular location in US, so they cannot question that part... moreover they understand that offices will reopen eventually.. if this was the case, nobody from Facebook or Google could ever get visa because they...

Do it once for all when you happen to be tax resident of US.

You should invest it in the market (index funds) and let it grow.

No matter how to put, even with pandemic situation your options to work remotely are same. PEO or contracting if you want to do the right way. If not, get paid in W2, file and face whatever that comes. You seem to be hell bent on somehow finding something that will say it's okay to be on W2...

All of the above is for non resident employees. Did you find anything for resident employees? You become Canadian resident from the day you enter Canada with an intent of settling there. It is not based on the number of days you stay. Also remember, even if your family stays in Canada, you'll...

If attorneys have opined that amendment is not required, then you might be good. But the biggest challenge in your case would be explaining this to CBP at the border. We have no way to know how they would interpret this. Anyways as you have decided to move, you need to take a leap of faith on...

You need to open TD USD account in Canada. This is an account that needs to be opened from Canada TD bank and is different from your US TD USD account. This lets you keep USD in a Canadian bank and all Canadian banks offer this USD account. Once you have TD Canada USD account and TD regular USD...

Those two accounts are sufficient. TD accounts are useful for transferring big amounts. Once you bring your USD to TD Canada USD account, you could use a service like knightsbridge to get it deposited as CAD in to a Canadian account. For small amounts, tranferwise should work well.

You can do this, but you'll have to transfer your license and import your car into Canada. If you say CBSA that you live in Canada which you will when entering during the weekend, they won't let you in with completing the import process. Once you change your license and car, your primary...

Is it for IRCC? If so do you see any value in doing this given that they already have your entire personal profile like name, date of birth etc. If you still feel concerned, try to get the letter with account number hidden directly from bank and not to do any alterations in the documents that...

third point is only for people in isolation and not quarantine. That's why they have mentioned it specifically in bracket. Isolation is applicable for symptomatic/covid positive people entering Canada, not for everyone and they have completely different set of rules for people who need to...

You are right about the residence part being at a commutable distance. So to deal with that you should give an address that's close to your employer work location as home address. You can get some sort of shared accommodation or provide a friend's address near your employer location. So it works...

It is okay to leave Canada while in quarantine. You need to stay quarantined until the day of leaving and wear mask when among other. Check excerpt this link for reference: If you arrive in Canada and have started your 14-day mandatory quarantine or isolation period but then have to leave...

Yes you can do that. Unless asked don't tell anything about this to them. 99% they won't ask about returning rental car. Uber is legally allowed to be taken for transit when heading for quarantine. Just go with your plans.

You are definitely allowed to leave the country in quarantine. Just don't mention anything to CBSA and simply fly out after one or two days. Or just tell them that you came for flagpoling and getting new i94. Choose whatever you feel comfortable saying.. I know someone who did soft landing at...

You can have two addresses in your petition, but if you work in client model, you'll have to get client letter with this address in your client letter as well. On top of that, you also need to provide an itinerary on where you will be working for the length of the petition. Like on which day...

As long as you are able prove your travel plans with confirmed flight tickets (*if asked by CBP), there should be no issues. Make sure you have an address close to your employer workplace where you'll stay in Texas if asked at border (land borders may not ask, but if you fly from Toronto, they...
