U.S. / Canada Immigration Lawyer
"I work with executives and cross-border couples to get through immigration problems to obtain work permits and permanent resident status (green cards/maple leaf cards). Unlike almost all other immigration advisers I am a member of the bar, and actually practice immigration law, in both the United States and Canada. In the last 30 years I have handled over 10,000 legal cases gaining more experience with each matter to help my next clients. I solve immigration problems for clients so they save precious time, avoid extra effort and make more money."

This article reviews these options moving from the quickest, easiest and cheapest through to the options that take the longest time, are the hardest to take advantage of and cost the most. If you are in a hurry to move to the United States or Canada you will first want to get a non-immigrant work visa and later apply for permanent resident status. Indeed, in most employment-based or business/investment-based applications for permanent residence this two-step approach is best whether you are headed to the US or Canada. While this article is focused on business or executives in North America headed south-bound or north-bound, much of what is presented remains the same for professionals and executives from other parts of the world traveling to North America. To be certain of your status you should always consult an immigration lawyer about your specific circumstances before traveling.
