Het your citizenship before moving.

I am a Canadian PR and my company processed a L1B. The process involves applying and interviewing at consulate. Not sure what exactly you are looking for. Canadian PR doesn’t make it easier to get US Visa , the ease and scrutiny depends on your nationality.

The L1B process is painful unless ur getting help from an immigration consulting firm

Did Toronto to the states on an L1 intracompany transfer visa. Surprisingly easy process for Canadian citizens and I personally strongly prefer the U.S. job market.

Totally missed the PR part or was edited in. Either way L1 transfers are available as long as you work for the employer outside of the U.S. for more than a year. The benefit that only Canadian citizens get is the ability to apply for L1 status directly at the border. Literally every other country applies centrally through USCIS which takes much more time. Otherwise, same process, same qualifications needed etc. Best of luck!

Why would you move as a PR and jeopardize your chance of becoming a citizen? Anyway the process is same for everyone irrespective of status. If you want to work in the USA you’ll need a visa. How and what - depend on your status. You can get H/L visa through employer if you’re qualified. The processing can be different if you’re Canadian vs from any other nationality (e.g. India). Canadians can have their L1 in the port of entry, they don’t have to go to the consulate. If you’re a Canadian then you can also get a job offer in USA first and then use that to get a TN in the PoE

Curious what system everyone uses for cataloging books. We use the free version of Koha and no longer use the Dewey decimal system but catalog by genre, ie. mystery, science fiction, contemporary, action, historical fiction, etc. I took over the library after this format was set in place.

I have a coworker who keeps spouting comparative odds and situations in regards to the safety of the vaccine. Such as: you're twice as likely to get hit by lightening than have blod clots from JJ. It's very annoying and I find it to be really inapprorpriate, maybe because it's pushy or just I find these comparative things to be a bit irrelevant. How does one handle something like that? Can you shut the person down without starting a spat?
