Hello. I am looking into immigrating from USA to Canada. My current job is US 100% remote. If my employer allows me to work in Canada, does the express entry allow this? I understand that it seems that most require a job in Canada but I don't see anything about remote work. Is there any option that I can come to Canada with a remote job from US?

If you are asking whether you can claim your US job as a job offer for the purposes of immigrating to Canada, the answer to that is no.

No, I didn't say that at all. I said that you cannot use your US job as a job offer for the purposes of immigrating to Canada. There are ways of immigrating without a job offer if you score enough points / meet the right requirements.Thank you.
