Hello gurus,
Please i have spent time looking for discussions relating to my situation but did not find such however if i might have missed it, do point me to the right links/discussions.
I landed in 2015, did not have a job till summer this year when i started consulting however i have been in and out within the past one year multiple times. The situation is that i have just accepted a job offer in the US which i will likely be on L1/L2 visa and i plan to still keep my residency as my family will not move with me but remain in Canada. I understand i will have to pay my US tax and then file in Canada to pay whatever difference exists, i plan to be commuting every month back to Canada so i can be accumulating days. My questions are;
1. Is there any one in this situation or has been in this situation and what was your experience so far and on renewal of PR or applying for citizenship?
2. I want to keep my Ontario driving licence but i will also need to keep a car in Houston so does anyone know how i can keep my Ontario license and still register and drive in Texas without exchanging my Ontario license?
Will appreciate any other information that anyone deem necessary to help me in keeping my PR and also maintaining a residence in US due to work I do not plan to claim US residency as i do not intend to settle or get a green card or citizenship over there, just need this job till i can find a better paying job in Canada, US employer will not treat me as contractor as this is full time employment.
