    How to arrive under TN Visa (NAFTA)???

    Man, finding info about this is hard. Supposedly a lot of people do it but the CIC website seems pretty silent about it. Anyway, assuming that I get a job offer (computer analyst), how does this all go? I just casually show up at the border one day with my passport, job offer and diploma and...

    Skilled Worker applicant from US - mail to Sydney, NS?

    Hey, I'm a US citizen who wants to move to Canada in the next year or two. I don't have a job offer but would like to apply for a visa so that I could move and have the ability to be hired. It seems nearly impossible to get a job offer without such status. From what I've seen, I best fit under...
