I’m considering moving to canada since I’ve a PR and my company just filed my PERM 2 months ago. I’m wondering if I could stay in canada until I get a citizenship and then move back to the US if I do want to come back (and if I feel so inclined prepare for my EB1 application). I heard from a few folks in canada that it’s best I move as early as next year due to upcoming Canadian elections in 2025. Any advice on navigating this convo within my firm/around the move would be highly appreciated!

The immigration landscape in Canada is changing, and if you are eligible for a PR for Canada, you should consider it sooner rather than later. The number of temporary residents in Canada is at an all-time high level; upcoming Canadian elections in 2025 might impact immigration policies, so moving sooner could be advantageous. It may be likely that if you want to immigrate to Canada directly as a permanent resident, the options may become limited unless you are in one of the in-demand categories or have a employer supporting PR or work permit.
