Hello,

I am looking for information related to Canadian immigration for professionals. Currently, I am living in the U.S for the past 10 years. I have a bachelors in Industrial Engineering from India and a masters in Industrial Engineering from a U.S. university. I have been working full-time as an Industrial Engineer for over 7 years now with a H1B work visa. I am married and my wife (H4 visa) is a Chartered Accountant from India and a Certified Public Accountant from the U.S - currently looking for employment for the last 3 years (H1B visa is such a tease). I am past the second stage (approved I140 - awaiting priority date to become current) of Green Card application but slowly losing faith in the U.S. immigration system.

We would like to work and live in Canada permanently.
Where do we start - work permit or PR?
Which province and under what category should we apply for work permit/PR?
Should we apply for jobs and go through the employer for work permit/PR?

Thanks!
