This is what I am planning to do. The issue is that if green card sponsorship is not a part of your contract (I doubt it is) then there is nothing you can do to push the company to sponsor you. Your company knows that once your are going to get that GC, you out, which means they will hold off with that GC sponsorship for as long as they possibly can. On the other hand, you got PR. Move to Canada, get your couple of years of experience, get citizenship, then evaluate your options. I met a guy in a bar here (Toronto) that used to be in oil and gas (Alberta). Came as a foreigner, got citizenship, used it to get a cushy expat contract in Emirates, pocketed roughly 400-500K USD/year (he was lead petrophysicist), came back to Canada, bought a house here, and moved to project management.Thanks. It's just, I can't lose Canadian PR, but I'd prefer US PR. Everyone I talk to tells me to get a citizenship first and go through TN route.
I have a Master's degree from the US. I just don't know anyone who got a green card though NIW. I will do some research on this.
Personally, I would not trust any company in the world with my future. It's all about business.
