Hey guys,
I'm about to start my Canadian PR process soon and wanted to make sure that my plan doesn't have any flaws in it.
Here's my situation:
I have a US Masters degree and have been working on an H-1B with my employer since 2015. My GC priority date is 04/2016 and my I-140 has been approved since 11/2016. I haven't changed my employer since I started working in 2015. My employer has an office in Toronto, and should be able to give me a job offer in Canada which I can use on my express entry application. I also have family in Alberta and Ontario. On Canada's scoring website, I'm getting a score of 520 with the job offer and 470 without it. Think this is good enough to make the cut?
I'm planning on getting the PR, moving to Canada, and staying in Canada for 3 years to at least get Canadian citizenship. After that, if I choose to, I can come back down to the US on a TN visa with the US branch of my employer. I don't think my employer will rescind the GC since I'll simply be jumping from their US branch to their Canadian branch and back again.
If I come back to the US, and if I decide to go on an H-1B visa again with the same employer (unlikely
), would it be cap-subject or are all H-1Bs filed after an approved I-140 cap-exempt?
Thanks!
