In order to get a legal job in New York, you first have to apply for a work permit (green card) and that can take up to 2 years to receive. Good luck!

Contact the Canadian Consulate, they'll tell you what you need to do, and how to do it.  Good luck!

If youintend to work there the first thing you will need is a work permit. So you need to find an employer with a shortage of staff they can source in the US. If you have a specialist skill you are more likley to find an employer. Start with websites on employment.

It is hard to get a visa to the UK too, which I'm trying to do.  Could you possibly get your former NYC employer to sponsor you for a work visa?  That would be your easiest (legal) route.  Good luck, I LOVE NYC!  (But everyone should leave before they become bitter and hard.)

as a canadaian you a eligible for TN status (part of the NAFTA agreement). TN status enables you to work and live in the US. You must ,however, be a professional and find a job first. Once you have the job, you get a letter from the employer and simply proceed to the US border where the immigration official grants you the status. You do not have to go to the embassy, however, you must renew it every year (it's possible to make it permanent but very difficult).\n\nOther then the TN status you can apply thru the normal channels (just like any immigrant). Also you can spend 6 months (out of the year) as a turist but you can not work.

Canadian immigration only works through an 800 number within canada and an american must work through an embassy in america:  those five canadian embassies are:  seattle, buffalo, chicago, dc & detroit.  Simply search Canadian Immigration and go from there.  Your best bet ultimately is to get an attorney.  Email me w/more info about your situation and perhaps I can assist.  good luck.

All the information about Immigrating to Canada can be found on the Citizenship and Immigration Canada website:\nhttp://www.cic.gc.ca/\nIt is the only website you need to look at.\n\nYou can't just move to Canada and be able to work there legally. To apply for Canadian citizenship you must first become a permanent resident and after 3 years of continuous uninterrupted residence you can apply for citizenship.\n\nAs and American you have 3 choices to work in Canada:\n\n1)Apply for a NAFTA worker status (the easiest)\n Must have a bachelor degree, work experience and job offer.\n To get this status you simply go to the Canadian border\n with your proof of qualifications and job offer and you \n get status on the spot. You must renew it once a year.\n2) Work visa. \n  Apply at the Canadian Embassy with your job offer. \n3) Apply for permanent residency:\n  Take this test to see if you qualify:\n   http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/skilled/assess/index.html\n\nOnly option 3 provides a path to citizenship. The first 2 (no matter how long time you spend in Canada) won't allow you to apply for citizenship.

I dont think its hard for you to find a job, while you are in canada.  I'm sure you can find one that would sponser you too.   Or you can get a studen visa and work/stdy there to build up residency there which may help you further.\n\ncheck out this link\nhttp://answers.yahoo.com/question/;_ylt=Ao.UbBQlYzQJWHXN49c9SdojzKIX?qid=1006032303952\n\n"If you are having a hard time making a decision, you could go through the temporary work visa route and try it before making an absolute final committment: http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/work/ "

Do a lot of research on the job markets and the social conditions in the countries you want to work in. Many countries (sad to say the US is one of them) have areas that do not welcome people form other parts of the world. You want to find a place that has a job waiting for you but that also has other places that you might be able to get a job if their is a problem with the first one. When you get the job you should keep your expenses down until you have enough put aside to carry you over if you have to go through a period of looking for a new job. I am sure that your work will be good but people can lose their jobs through no fault of their own. The company might downsize or go under or something like that. A city that has an existing population of people from your country would be good to look for that way you could get good information about the living conditions. I wish you good luck. I am sorry that I had to say what I did about the US but it is true. However, you can move in next to me and have a friend. We are not all bad.

If you are just moving for a while, just get your identification in order, get a visa, and go.  If you are immigrating, contact Canadian immigration and they will fill you in.

You need to apply for a job on the U.S, get a solid offer and the company is then responsible for getting you a visa and work permit. You can not just travel and look for a job.
