Can Provincial nominee work as contractor for another country company

[vsingh89]

Good afternoon all,

I am Mamta Sharma & I landed in Winnipeg, Manitoba on Mar 23, 2014. I am a PR here under provincial nominee program.

In India I was working with a company who has head quarters in US. Now that company is offering me a job. I want to know that if that company hires me as a part time employee & get me an L1 visa to work 10 days/month in US, how it will effect my PR status in Manitoba, Canada.

Or else if company hires me as a contractor & ask me to work in Canada (travel to other provinces) 10 days/month, will there be any problem? In either case I am going to stay in Winnipeg permanently.

Waiting for your valuable comments & suggestions.

Thank you very much
Mamta Sharma

If you're already a PR, and you have the option of going to the US or working within Canada for this company, obviously the better choice will be to work within Canada (from a PR standpoint).

If you're travelling only within Canada, there will be no effect on your PR status.
