Will Canada PR affect existing H1B?

[sriramsrini]

Hi,

I have 4 years left in my H1B. Also, I would like to apply for Canada PR. I would like to know whether my H1B will become not valid/cancelled if I get a Canadian PR ?

Regards,
Sri

No. Your visa is irrelevant to your PR application and your PR application is irrelevant to your visa. In other words, H1B has no effect on your PR application and it will not be canceled if your PR application is approved. Good luck!
