PR Status

  • If you wish to remain as a Canadian Resident you must be phisically present in Canada for 3 years every 5 years. Furthermore, if you wish to work in the USA, you must apply as anybody else. Being a Canadian Resident does not grant you any special treatment at the US border, so it is an issue of your potential employer in the USA and you. You may also have to surrender your Canadian residency if you wish to work in the USA for more than 1 year.

    So... if you come to Canada is because you want to be here. As a Doctor with foreign credentials in Canada you will have a tough time getting to the same status you had in your home country. This is something you must consider before coming here. Many people come here with unbelievable foreign credentials, but in the job market in Canada they are not worth much.

    Sorry for the bad news
