    Canada Move Discussion (2014 FSW - People in USA on H1B)

    Thanks SK for starting this topic. I have been living in the US for over 10 years now, 8 of which are on my H-1B work visa. I'm one of the millions of people waiting in line for GC. My wife is on H4 and she absolutely hates the fact that she cannot work. In the last 4 years she received 6 job...

    Need to go to Canada for Landing but do not have H1B stamping on passport

    My H-1B visa on the passport expired in 2013 and I have an extension document validating my stay in the US until 2016. I have to complete my landing in Canada as a PR before Dec 2015. I want to come back to the US after landing. I am assuming, considering all facts, that I would need a H-1B visa...

    Need to go to Canada for Landing but do not have H1B stamping on passport

    Hello, I am in a similar situation with my H-1B visa and Canadian PR landing. What did you finally do? Did you land as an immigrant in Canada first (which I think makes senses) and then for a H-1B visa interview and stamping at a US Consulate in Canada?

    I sent two Indian passports too. One of them expired last year but has my current visa status in the U.S. while the other one is newly issued. CPC-O is sending my passports back without any issues. In my opinion, expired passport is not necessarily invalid. I think CPC-O will stamp the PR visa...

    Does anyone here know how long it takes for the passport to be delivered from CPC-Ottawa to an address in the U.S by regular mail? I wasn't unable to purchase an Xpresspost prepaid label online (U.S. Credit Card issue) and have requested CPC-O to send the passport by regular mail. Thanks

    Congratulations! Do you live in the US? Were you able to send a prepaid shipping label from Canada Post to CPC-O? I couldn't use my US credit card for the shipping label so sent the passport without one. Hoping to get the passport back by regular mail soon.
