Can canadian resident or canadian citizen work in america, what should they do if they want to work in USA?
Answer:
Under the provisions of NAFTA, Canadian citizens with degrees (B.S. or provincial licnese) qualify for TN visas into the US. TN visa is valid for 1 year and must be renewed every year thereafter. There is no petition necessary, but you will need to present all your credentials as well as documentation of a job offer from a US employer.
Otherwise, a person can be sponsored as an H1B by an employer in the US. This type of visa is valid for a period of up to 3 years and can be renewed for another 3 thereafter.
Students can work in the US with an OPT, however, they must be a full-time student for 1 year prior to applying for OPT. The most that a person can work with OPT is 20 hours a week.
A "green card" is technically an Immigrant visa, whereas all of the others listed above are temporary, non-immigrant visas. With a "green card," you are legally able to work for any employer in the United States.
Well you can do it illegally if you want lol, but if you don't want to do it in that way you need to get a visa that it costs a lot of $$$
I know they can and do here in Michigan.
I think they should go to the American embassy to request permission to work in the US, but I'm not sure
Yes,just get a visa an be with in the law of the us
I know there are several levels of work visas available. Go to the US Homeland Security site for an explanation of each. There are student ones, H2B - which the US employer has to do, a longer one for up to three years, I think. The student one is hard to get (lots of paperwork) and expensive. The others rely on the employer not being able to fill the job locally...
They'll need a "green card". Have the person in question contact the nearest American consulate for details.
