Difference B/w Canadian Permanent Residents Vs H1B Visa Holders In Usa


Recommended Posts

Posted

1. H1B visa holders can not change sponsoring employer whereas Canadian Permanent Re sidents are free to move between jobs and locations, work on contract as a consultant, which could result in tax benefits.

2. H1B visa holders are unable to start own business whereas Canadian Permanent Residents can commence their own businesses.
 
3. Many H1B visa holders face the risk of going back to their home country if their Green Cards are not applied before the 6-year limit or when H1B expires, such is not the case with Canadian Permanent Residents. No such risk exists. At the very outset, new immigrants receive a permanent residence visa (very similar to the USA Green Card).
 
4. H1B visa holders cannot sponsor dependents other than spouse/children, whereas, once you are a permanent resident, you can sponsor other family members also who are dependent on you (brothers, sisters, parents etc.)
 
5. If a spouse of H1B visa holders wishes to work, he/she has to arrange for sponsorship from potential employers; thus creating a barrier to finding employment, whereas in case of Permanent Residents, spouse can legally work in Canada, as he/she also has the Permanent Resident status - no permits or authorizations needed.
 
6. Citizenship - is a LONG wait. First the green card and then many more years to citizenship. Whereas, in Canada 3 years of residence entitles you to apply for citizenship. Canadian Citizens does not need H1B to work in USA.
 
Pursuant to new Immigration and Refugee Protection Act a permanent resident only has to stay 2 years in 5 years period to maintain his/her permanent resident status.

But remember every $1 earned is US = $4 earned Canada

and comparison should be between Canada PR to US Green Card as PR is a residency status and H1 is a Temp/long term Visa

I am not comparing the Living quality ,but in context opportunities for IT people and what Canada can offer !

For example Vizag or even Cochin is best place in India to live..but if you are a Graduate from IIT (or any reputed inst) and working in big MNC like IBM, will you move to Vizag or chochin to work for a small company with 50% less salary , just become they are the best places to live ??

 

I prefer Canadian citizenship over US ,but life is hard is Canada than in US

One year working (saving) is US = 5 Yrs doing the same Canada !
